I was used to OOo working with X11 on Mac (PPC G5 OS X 10.4.11) and I tried to switch to OOo 3.0.1_fr, and it does NOT work. I mainly use the writer : it allows to open a text file and to modify it, as Simpletext does, except
that it takes much longer.

I quote from a mail in the French users list ([email protected]):
about the famous method that solves almost anything...
Quit OOo (and the Quickstarter - probably not on Mac)
Rename the prefs file Library/Application Support/OpenOffice.org
(c:\documents and settings\Application Data\<nom d'usager>\Openoffice.org)
or put that file elsewhere, e.g. on the desktop
Restart OOo
OOo will make new preferences and maybe that will solve your problem...

I post this answer on the users list, not on the mac list that is more for
mac developers.
I send you a copy, since you're apparently subscribed to neither of these
lists.


For OO 3.0.1 and OSX 10.5, the preferences file is named "org.openoffice.script.plist" (all preferences files in OSX have the extension "plist") and it's in Users/username/Library/Application Support/Preferences.
Correction: The plist is in Users/username/Library/Preferences.

However, Guy mistakingly said 'preference' instead of 'profile'. The file to be renamed is
Users/username/Library/Application Support/OpenOffice.org/3
