 It used to be very easy to save odt files as .doc and now, it won't do it.

 That little mac wheel just keeps spinning and I have to force quit every
 time. I've also restarted the apps, restarted the machine and installed new
 software. Nothing works except if I do it the crunchy way, which is of
 course, opening a new .doc blank file and cutting and pasting and saving
 as... but really, I'd rather not. Someone please help

 Hi, thanks for responding--I see that solution is for OS Lion. I'm on
 Tiger
 OS (10.5.8) is there a solution for my OS version?


 The location is for all versions of OS X. There are specific instructions
 to find the folder if you are using Lion.

 In finder, go to /Users/user name/Library/Application
 Support/OpenOffice.org/3/user and follow Hagar's instructions:

1. Rename the profile by changing the \user folder name (see here for
 its location) to
\user.old for example. This way, you still keep a backup of your
 configuration.
2. Restart AOO/OOo, it will create a new profile. Check the time stamp
 of the files and
folders created to make sure there are brand new.

  I see the solution in that link for Windows, but not for Mac OS Tiger,
 please advise?

  Click on  (see here for its location) in the link that Hagar gave to
 find the profile location on a Mac.
