[discuss] Mac PPC version? Where did it go?

2010-02-28 Thread Efrem Mc
I am using a Mac PPC version on Mac OS X 10.5 (Mac G4).  I wanted to use OO
3.x.  I have a Linux partition but wanted to use on the Mac side.  If this
is not going to ever be available, please let me know.

This is from the Download page.

[discuss] Mac track pad

2010-02-08 Thread andrew jones

Hi, 
I love the program but I find one thing absolutely maddening. I'm unable to 
turn off the track pad zoom function my mac has in either Openoffice or in my 
preferences. It causes my papers to shink to illegible size with even the 
slightest slip of my fingers. If this could be dealt with in future 
incarnations of Openoffice I think it would make myself and other mac users 
incredibly happy. 

Thank you.

Hello Roger,

The prompt is in the xterm window of the X11 utility that OpenOffice.org
needs to run on your Mac. The X11 or XQuartz that comes with Leopard (OSX
10.5.x, your operating system) is different from the X11 that runs on Tiger
(the previous Mac OS 10.4.x) and it isn't yet entirely bugsfree. The
developers are busy with it, and you get updates with Apple's automagic
Software Update. There are more regular updates available at
http://www.myriad-online.com/en/products/galerie.htm
that may (or may not) work better with Leopard and OpenOffice.org

OpenOffice.org always triggers X11 to open, hence that window, that you can
close if it annoys you (just click on the red button - there are more
sophisticated ways of stopping X11 from opening that xterm window in the
first place, but I lost the reference...

I use the 'experimental' version of OOo that works without X11 - you can
download it for trial, not for serious production work, since it's still
being tested to weed out the bugs - see the entry page of
www.openofice.orgfor the beta-2, there's a version for your Mac Intel
too.

BTW, the normal place to discuss these things would be the users list (

Andrew,

I don't know if anyone replied to you with this link already:

http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php

NeoOffice is a port of OpenOffice to the Mac. It's slow to load but  
OK once it's up and running. They've added some of the usual Mac  
interface stuff. The port obviates the requirement to run X11. The  
software may tide you over until the official Aqua port is available.

[discuss] Mac OS X 10.4.8 Openoffice shuts down

2007-05-08 Thread mo loeem
Hello,

I can't find the answer to my question, hopefully you
can help:

I have a new MacBook running OS X 10.4.8. I have the
1.83 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor.  I manually
installed X11 and then double clicked on Openoffice
2.2 application. X11 launched and Openoffice tried to.
The splash screen came on and showed the progress
bar about a quarter of the way filled, then the
Openoffice just QUIT. 

I don't know if I'm starting up the application in the
wrong way, or this is a bug? Please if you have any
information...

Tony

 I use OOo on my Mac all the time. Admittedly, I am running 10.4.3,
 but before then was on 10.3.x, and used an earlier version of the OOo
 for X11. I also used NeoOffice/J, which is derived from OOo and is
 also free. It's maintained by a different project.

Agreed.  I ran across a few messages claiming that OOo 2 is *finally* 
available for download, so I was all psyched up to download it for OS X. 
Sadly, OOo 1.1.2 is the latest version available for Macitnosh users.


What is the general timeline for OO2 for OS X, or has that been officially 
dropped?

You need to run X11, however a better version is NeoOffice/J because it 
skip the

step of installing and running X11.
