Re: Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
To help us give you detailed instructions, could you tell us what kind of operating system you are using? Is it a Windows machine? Also, when you say that the documents are still there but all else has disappeared, what do you mean by that? Are the documents still on the computer but you can't open them in OpenOffice, or are they missing from your computer entirely? Also, did you just install a new version of OpenOffice? What version are you using? Sorry to make you answer so many questions, but any additional information you can provide us would help us be able to help you.

John Jay The files are still on your computer, most likely the problem is that they don't show in OpenOffice's Recent Documents setting. This may be because you have upgraded from an earlier version of OO to the current version and the current version knows that it has not opened any documents. If you start up OpenOffice and use /File /Open, you can manoeuvre to the directories in which the files are stored. Selecting each file in turn will open it and it will now show on OO's Recent Documents. Alternately, at system level (i.e., in Windows, if that is what you are using, double clicking on each file ought cause it to open in OpenOffice and it should show thereafter on Recent Documents. If the above advice doesn't work, I suggest you bring your query to the OO user help Forum at https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/ To post a query you must register (a.k.a. subscribe) - your first post will be moderated as an anti-spam measure so may not show up for some small time. -- Rory O'Farrell ofarr...@iol.ie - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Thanks Steve Hi Steve, The registration process is no longer active, so you can just ignore that. A JRE is a Java Runtime Environment, which is available from Java.com. It is needed to run a few of the features of OpenOffice. However, if you haven't run into any other problems, you don't seem to need it. Your older version of OpenOffice requires and old version of the JRE and I don't recommend going through the trouble without a reason. You should consider getting a more recent version of OpenOffice from www.openoffice.org. That download process will redirect you to SourceForge and the download will start automatically. There is no need to click on anything at SourceForge. Best regards, Francis

Re: Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
To tell it short: The virus alert is a false-positive. OpenOffice is not infected by a virus but the anti-virus software has a wrong defection. The following is an excerpt from an answer for another mail: 1. Disable the anti-virus software before downloading OpenOffice. Only download from the official source: http://www.openoffice.org/download/ 2. For download, do not select open, select Save and place in a memorable location (your Download folder, for example). 3. Use any of the procedures for verifying the Download. This code is not signed, so you will have to use either the PGP or the MD5/SHA verifications. See here for procedures: http://www.openoffice.org/download/checksums.html 4. In your anti-virus software, see if there is a setting where it will only remove or quarantine files after confirmation by you. This will let you over-rule it in the future, verifying the file yourself instead.

Double-Click on it and the text range on which the Bookmark is applied to is selected. Right-Click opens a context menu - in a certain sub menu you find 'Delete' and 'Rename' for the Bookmark.

I did not know that Apache has taken over OpenOffice, and I have a few questions: Is Apache 4.1.0 the latest version of what I already have? If I install Apache 4.1.0, will it upgrade my present 3.0 or will it install a completely different system, so that I would have to delete the 3.0 myself? I normally save my documents as .doc - is that still possible with 4.1.0? Is a .doc usable (edit, etc) with 4.1.0? My OpenOffice documents are .odt - does 4.1.0 still use that extension? If not, is it still usable with 4.1.0? In addition, I have a problem with printing envelopes: they print barcodes across (up and down) the envelope face. I have worked with a printer technician, and we cannot find any way that the printer could be adding the barcodes. He suggested that I call OpenOffice; that is why I have discovered Apache OpenOffice! If the answers to all my above questions are positive, I will download the 4.1.0 and hope that the barcode problem will no longer be present. If the barcodes persist, I will go to Support, but before that happens, I need to know the answers to these questions. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Roberta Yule Owen Hello Roberta, Yes. 4.1.0 is the latest version of Apache OpenOffice. The 4.1.0 version should install in parallel to your 3.0 version. I suggest keeping both versions active for a little while until you are sure that 4.1.0 works well for you. There have been many improvements since 3.0 but it only takes one bug sometimes to cause a big problem. The latest version can still save in the .doc format and its native format is .odt.

Try this: * Click inside the (header) month cell (eg. January). * From Calc's main menu select the /Format - Merge Cells - Merge and Center Cells/ option. If my guess is correct, you will then have removed the merge and reinstated the 12 individual cells. Hope this helps. Dave
Re: Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
Hi Dave, Thank you for your reply, sorry I haven't explained myself properly. I have a new spread sheet for each month and between each month I insert a sheet to paste a picture to, in total I use about 25 new sheets for this project so when I go to Edit - Header/footer and type in the month of January this copies to every sheet, but what I want is January for January, February for February and so on. I hope this is clearer. Regards Joan. Sent from my iPad On 13 May 2014, at 16:28, Dave Barton d...@tasit.net wrote: Joan Learmonth wrote: Hi, I am having a problem with Open Office 4.01.

IMHO it's misleading if someone wants to test a developer build (Beta, RC) and find an outdated version at a prominent place. 4.0.1 is the version that we encourage everybody to use. 4.1.0-beta is still the version we encourage everybody to test. 4.1.0-RC3 is the version we encourage VOLUNTEERS to test. The developer builds, RCs included, did not go through the acceptance process the beta had (we voted on the Beta and made sure it was usable before giving it to the public) and may have (unfortunately, did have) major issues. So they are for another target, the project volunteers. They are also on a server that cannot sustain a very large download traffic. In short: - General public should still test the beta - Volunteers should test the RC and use the, less visible, Development Builds link. It would be better (IMO) to place the URL to those developer versions with an appropiate comment. It is there, just less visible than the Beta box. And this is due to the reasons outlined above.

Re: Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
Hello Kathelijne, you did the right steps and you used the correct pages to download OpenOffice. You downloaded a version for Mac, as I can tell from what you write below. The only reason I could think up why you couldn't open the downloaded file is you are probably not using Mac but Windows (you haven't written which operating sytem you're using) and need to download the version for Windows. You should not, however, have received Genio when downloading Openoffice. That can happen when you use other download sources than ours. Genio is a sort of adware which at least borders on malware. You should remove it from your computer. Good look with OpenOffice!
