GENIUS!!! It worked--thank you!!! =) On Mon, Jan 14, 2013 at 2:10 PM, Larry Gusaas larry.gus...@gmail.comwrote: On 2013-01-14 4:03 PM Maritess Zurbano wrote: Hi, thanks for responding--I see that solution is for OS Lion. I'm on Tiger OS (10.5.8) is there a solution for my OS version? The location is for all versions of OS X. There are specific instructions to find the folder if you are using Lion. In finder, go to /Users/user name/Library/Application Support/OpenOffice.org/3/user and follow Hagar's instructions: 1. Rename the profile by changing the \user folder name (see here for its location) to \user.old for example. This way, you still keep a backup of your configuration. 2. Restart AOO/OOo, it will create a new profile. Check the time stamp of the files and folders created to make sure there are brand new.
