Re: open office not opening
Not really an Apache OpenOffice issue, but since you are unfamiliar with your new computer I will try and help you get started. Rather than bore the more experienced subscribers to this list, I will contact you off-list (direct email). It's late here and I need to get some sleep, so don't expect to hear from me immediately.

Dave, Thanks, I am in a new computer that is way unfamiliar to me. Reading your comments below, it only allows me to log in one way. Last question I will bother you with.

Re: open office not opening
OK! This is a different issue. What you are encountering is called Windows UAC (User Access Control). Are you running/logged-in as an "Administrator" with elevated privileges, or as a "Standard" user with normal privileges? If you saved the saved the document(s) while logged-in as an Administrator (eg. the Administrator's "My Documents" folder) and try to open it/them when logged-in as a Standard user you will see that Windows system message. If you are not already, try logging in with an Administrator account and save the document(s) to your Windows "Public" folder. From there any user should be able to open and save the files. There are other situations (eg trying to save documents opened directly from email attachments to system privileged folders) when the "Requires Elevation" message will be displayed. Apache OpenOffice cannot and does not attempt to override Windows UAC. For more information about Windows UAC look on the Microsoft website or do an internet search.

Re: open office not opening
I am unable to help but I have a suggestion - provide the system on the new computer and whether you downloaded from Open Office's site (http://www.openoffice.org/). This will give those who can help information they need. Jack Dino Ielmorini wrote: Hello, I have downloaded Open to a new computer that will not open it. It says there is a bad soffice?

Re: BRIGHT IDEA: was: Re: Open Office not opening]
That is a very GOOD idea, considering the number of questions requiring the advice of “remove folder xxx from the folder yyy”, something that has fooled many Mac users of Openoffice, me included. My impression is that the question on the list requiring the standard response has appeared at least more than once per day lately. If we consider that as a guess that less than 10% of users (maybe less) who have met that condition and have reached the list and asked for a solution, the solution is very much overdue. Tom On 18.

Re: Open Office not opening
That would be a folder? I think that is what you mean. There are 3 folders in my “save application state” folder none of them have the org.openoffice.script.savestate. I am new to Mac have owned Windows computers before. Is there a way to completely remove open office and start all over? I have changed the security to allow all apps to install.

Re: Open Office not opening
A common error. Open your finder. Seelct Go menu Prest ALT and select your Library Find the ORG.openoffice.script.savedstate and put it in the garbage. Those information are available on open office blog.
