2006/11/8, Judith Welch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I have OpenOffice.org 2.0 installed on my new iMac running on OSX 10.4.8. I am a new MAC user but I thought I had everything going correctly. I had created both a writer file and a calc file and saved them. I placed the OpenOffice.org icon in the Dock. Today when I double click on the icon--the X11 app opens--the OpenOffice about window comes up--but nothing else happens. It is like it opens and then closes. This same thing happens when I try to open the app from the Applications window. Also when I try to open one of the files created with OpenOffice I get "This operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code-10660). Any help would be appreciated. Judy
Judy, if this is an Intel Mac and if you recently accepted an update of X11 to be installed by Apple, you'd better take a look at the mac porting site of OpenOffice.org. Apple send 'round a faulty update with some unusable fonts that may abort the startup of OOo. So it's probably an Apple problem and they promise to fix this. OOo is also busy trying to keep fonts conflicts between Apple, X11 and OOo out of the way... and eventually to make a OOo that won't need X11 anymore (that would make OOo on mac much faster...)
