Hi,
I just got a new iMac and am fully upgraded to 10.5.5. Just installed
and have similar timing out problems with the latest 2.4.1. The
terminal windows comes up for X11 and X11 loads. The application
bounces for a while and then times out. I am open to trying Aqua.
I am moving from a PC (free at last!) where I used that version of
OpenOffice successfully. Some of my files transferred are in their
specific formats.
Interesting that I just subscribed to this mailing list and the
message is so appropriate.
Regards, Bruce

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone could help out with some problems I'm having
with Open Office 2.4? I have a Mac OS X 10.5.5.
I downloaded the program with no difficulties, and it worked fine up
until about 24 hours ago. Now when I try and open it, I get the
message "command timed out", and it doesn't work. When I try and
open
using the Finder feature, I get the message "Could not run this
script
because of a program error. -43".
Any help would be very, very much appreciated! Also, I'm not very
computer savvy, so layman's terms are strongly encouraged.
Thanks again,
Saku
Hello,
The newest Mac OS X update 10.5.5 seems to make problems with X11
(and also
with pdf files I...)
I propose that you install the Release Candidate 2 of the Aqua
version of
OpenOffice.org. That version doesn't need the X11 windowing utility.
You can download the RC2 from GoodDay:
http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/3.0.0rc2/
Which file to chose?
Do you have an Intel or a PowerPC Mac?
You download the US English version
(OOo_3.0.0rc2_MacOSXIntel_install.dmg or
...PPC_install.dmg), or the language version of you choice
(install_xx.dmg)
Download, doubleclick to open the dmg, then drag the program to your
applications folder.
You can drag the OOo icon from the Applications folder (in Finder)
to your
Dock for easy access.
The final tested&approved version of OOo 3.0.0 Aqua for Mac will be
ready in
a few weeks.
The RC probably still has some bugs, so it's advisable to save you
work
regularly.
