Apologies - I should have written " when there is a OOo user profile on

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Re: Re: How to migrate OpenOfficec Writer settings into LinbreOffice Writer

2012-01-20 Thread webmaster for Kracked Press Productions 


I save all my hidden "dot" folders, like .libreoffice and .mozilla, 
every month or so, and before I update LibreOffice to the next one.  
This is for Ubuntu, but can be done with Windows versions of these 
folders as well.


Actually you should do this for your Mozilla [Firefox and Thunderbird] 
user info folders so you can save all you browser 
setting/site-password/bookmarks/etc and your email account info, address 
book, and non-deleted emails.  This will/could save you a lot of trouble 
down the line.


Any time you do some "fixing" for LO or OOo, you need to save the 
current user info/account/etc. folders BEFORE you do the work.  This way 
if things go very wrong, you can go back to the original user info to 
try again.  Actually I find removing the .libreoffice for Ubuntu [by 
renaming] or equivalent in other OSs, and then opening LO, it views it 
as a first time use after a clean install.  This does "fix" a lot of 
pesky things that creep up from time to time, like printer issues.

Brilliant suggestion, Tom. Many thanks for this advice. I will do this on
all 3 of my machines, all running different OS - XP-Home, Vista 64, Vista
32 Business.

I'm sure to report back once I have done this and tested the result.

That would be nice. I wonder if there's a settings file hidden somewhere in
OO that we could simply locate and copy across to LO (appropriate folder)
and voila, it's done! Of course, BEFORE one uninstalls OpenOffice.

What option in the install mechanism would have caused it to have

It certainly didn't pick up the user's OO templates.
