I had the same issues and installed the 'Aqua' version (English) from the OpenOffice site yesterday without problems. It opens .doc files sent to me as well as .ods files I brought over from the PC version. I can print the .doc files. Did not exercise it more yet.

I am on iMac running 10.5.5. Per the about: OpenOffice.org 3.0.0 OOO300m7 (Build:9354).

Hope this helps,

Bruce

The English version for Intel Processors is OOo 3.0.0rc2 MacOSXIntell Install.dmg If you have a PPC processor you want OOo 3.0.0rc2 MacOSXPowerPC Install.dmg

If you are looking for a diffrent Language you need to find the one with your language designator such as OOo 3.0.0rc2 OSXIntel Install af.dmg

Hi,

I downloaded openoffice for Mac OSX and tried to install it. I have X11 but when I tried to start openoffice all that happened was that X11 started with the words "bash-3.2$" and the openoffice had a pop up which said "Command
timed out".  I would like to know how I can use openoffice on my mac
please.  Thanks.
