I'm using LO 4.0.4.2 on a Mac running 10.6.8
My son was working on a Writer doc for school, had made some big changes
without saving, then the laptop ran out of juice and crashed. Autosave
was set to 15 minutes but the majority of his changes had been made well
over 15 minutes before the crash.
When we rebooted I assured him his changes would be saved, but upon
opening and "recovering" the files, we were back where we started as if
it hadn't saved since we'd opened the file (it had been created the day
before). That was probably 45 minutes to an hour of work. He learned an
important lesson but...
Can anyone hazard a guess at why LO would have failed to autosave? It's
never failed to autosave before, and autosave has saved my keester on
several occasions. But now I'm wondering if it's entirely reliable (not
that autosave excuses me from manually saving my documents).
