The “sampling”/stack trace contains many references to accessibility stuff: ScAccessibleTableBase, hitTestRunner, accessibility etc. This means that the freeze is related to the use of the Mac OS Accessibility API. We have some long-standing bugs in LibreOffice accessibility stuff which were inherited from OpenOffice and which become visible only when the Mac OS Accessibility API is used (see the comments in bug 55571 etc.) ... and it seems that your report is just about another one of these nasty issues. Therefore, to confirm this observation and to find out what exactly triggers the bug, please check and answer the following questions: 1) Do you have any accesibility features enabled? Apple’s accessibility features like “VoiceOver” or “Enable access for assistive devices”, which get enabled in “System Preferences > Universal Access” (in French: “Préférences Système > Accès universel”), are known to cause many crashes and freezes in LibreOffice. So please try to disable any accesibility features, then check if the problem is still reproducible. 2) Do you have installed any window management/user interface utilities/apps/control panels/extensions for Mac OS X like * AquaSnap * BetterSnapTool * BetterTouchTool * Breeze * Cinch * Divvy * DoublePane * Flexiglass * HyperDock * iSnap * Moom * RightZoom * ShiftIt * SizeUp * SizeWell * Spectacle * Stay * TileWindows * WindowTidy ... or something similar? And/or do you use any mouse cursor/pointer utility, i.e. some little application or control panel etc. which animates or replaces etc. the mouse curser/pointer, like * LazyMouse? And/or do you use any special software which could be related to accessibility stuff, e.g. a screen reader, screen magnifier, speech recognition software, a text-to-speech (dictation) application, or similar? All these and many similar utilities rely heavily on Mac OS accessibility features and therefore can cause LibreOffice to crash or freeze. So please check if you have installed any utility of this kind and try to disable it (or to add LibreOffice to the list of excluded applications for the utility, if there is such a thing). So please check these possibilities, if any of them helps to make the freeze go away, and report the results here. Thank you very much! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
