Hi Mac user, I stumbled over this news article (sorry, German only):
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Acht-Zeichen-killen-Mac-Programme-1796645.html That includes this link: http://openradar.appspot.com/13128709 OSX apps (TextEdit) crashing in spell-checker (I think).I don't know if AOO is depending on the spellchecking service from MacOS X but maybe someone could try if AOO is affected, too.
Thanks Marcus
