Re: [libreoffice-users] Installing 2 versions of LO on Mac OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite

Hi, Tom: Thanks again for the reply. I did “cd ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice”, then "mv 4 4352”. That worked. However, I was unable to edit any of the paths in LibreOffice (LO4352) to anything that made sense to me, e.g., like to subfolders of “~

Hi :) I think the intention is to unpack and build the program in the new folder and then install or move the program to the place it should be. Maybe. However I haven't read through the rest of the instructions. Regards from Tom :) On 21 January 2015 at 20:19, Spencer Graves wrote: > Hi, Tom:

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Base: Connecting to SQLite3 .db and Working With it

Hi :) If using HsqlDb then it would be MUCH better to use their proper full program downloaded from their site as an external back-end. The in-built back-end has serious flaws which have apparently resulted in data-loss for quite a few people so it needs frequent back-ups. As an external back-end

Hi :) Ahh, mostly the Ubuntu's at work are 14.04. So i might have a try at a LiveUsb or multi-boot with an earlier version alongside the existing set-ups or something. Thanks Tim ! :) Errr, i think the drivers and apps and such are still called CUPS but i think the forums and websites retired di

Hi :) If you rename the User Profile then you can always rename it back later. Renaming just hides it from the program/suite so LibreOffice creates a fresh new one profile populated with the default settings, configs and all the rest. Deleting the User Profile would also work but then if it goes
