Is it not possible to check the md5sum on a Mac? It's always a good
idea to verify download integrity.

Hi Penny.
Doesn't sound good. I'm assuming you didn't have time to open openoffice after
your download and before your computer battery went dead. If so, this suggests
to me that there might just be a problem with the download. Sometimes when a
file is downloading there is a short period after reaching 100% while the last
bit of the file is being written to disk, and if this didn't happen, you've got
a bad download.
I would seriously suggest that you make a new download. That's a bummer if
you're on dialup, but better safe than sorry.
You won't regret having chosen Open Office. It's got everything you need.
Just remember, if you share documents with others, that you might need to save
them in Microsoft Word format (use Save As on the File menu) as not everyone
has Open Office yet. But spread the word amongst your friends! ;)

Hi,
I am completely lost. I downloaded openoffice last night but my computer
battery went dead just after the download.
Since recharging my Macbook I attempted to open my download. I received a
warning that I need to close openoffice.org on host,
but I have no clue what they are talking about, let alone how to achieve.
I haven't been able to do any tutorials as I am on dial-up, so as you can see I
am in rough shape.
Any assistance anyone could provide would be so gratefully appreciated !!! I
am trying to do a presentation on my mac and someone said
openoffice would be a good choice for doing that.
