Hi, Alex et al.: I finally installed LibreOffice 4.5, and the Solver worked there.

Please read the whole page here : https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/OS_X At present, this is probably the most current information that I know of. You will see that my suggestion of simply renaming the /Users/username/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice to the same name as the changed app bundle name is said to no longer work. I must admit to not having investigated this thoroughly, as I only tend to look at which extensions are / aren't installed, and as most of these are the same for me whichever version of LibreOffice I'm using, it doesn't make much of a difference. Note that the wiki page refers to a path that points to /home/user. Of course, this is wrong, there is no such folder on OSX. Try the renaming technique I suggested, and see if it works for you.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Solver kills LiberOffice under Mac OS X.10
Hi, Alex: Thanks for the replies. Before I received your latest, I filed bug 88544. I’ve received a reply asking, “Please specify Java version”, and noting that it “Works for me with version 4.3.6.0.0+”. With my sample problem A1=1, A2=2, A3=(A1-A2)^2 asking Solver to minimize A3 by varying A1, the tester asked, What is the correct result? Lo 4.3.6 and 4.5 give different results.” Answer: A2 = 1 (or within some tolerance like 1e-8). 1. How do I find out (and set) which Java version it’s trying to use? I found LO preferences but not a Java tab. 2. How can I get the “Solver for nonlinear programming extension” for OS X.10.1, Windows 7 and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS? A search for it identified nothing for OS X. What I found for Ubuntu seemed to want to download something else. I can try the version for Ubuntu again, but I’m confused. 3. Are there standard instructions for installing multiple versions of LO in parallel on OS X? I’d like to try LO 4.3.4.1, which worked for this under Windows 7, and maybe also 4.3.6 and 4.5, which the bug evaluator said gave different results.
