Known Bugs * Apache OpenOffice 3.4 and 3.4.1 manage the user profile differently than previous versions. The old user profile is automatically converted so that users can keep their extensions and settings. Is a minority cases, especially for highly customized profiles (many extensions or customizations) the conversion doesn't succeed. Common symptoms are: frequent application crashes, problems with dictionaries or thesaurus, OpenOffice starting and crashing after a few seconds. To solve this, just reset/rename your user profile as explained in the official OpenOffice forum: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12426 Change your notification preferences: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/users/viewnotifications.action
