Downloading Open Office 4.1.1.

2015-03-30 Thread stuartjobl...@optusnet.com.au 
Dear Support,
 
 I have been trying to download Open Office over the past few days
without success 
 using a number of different web sites detailing your program. 

The download appears to succeed with the final screen advising the
programme
has been succesfully finalised and is now loaded onto your computer. 
But no part
of Open Office is visible and does not appear in the programs files. Is
there any other
way to load this program ?

  Thankyou in anticipation,

Stuart Jobling

First off, I hope you're getting in only from www.openoffice.org.  Also,
what operating system are you running.  With Windows, it normally is
downloaded to your Downloads folder.  You then have to double click on
the downloaded file to start the installation process.

Please download only from https://www.openoffice.org/download/ . This is
the official site. Once the download link is clicked you will be redirected
to Sourceforge. Wait a few moments after redirection and the download will
begin automatically.

Please note, the download DOES NOT install the program. It copies the
installation program onto your computer. Once the installation file is on
the computer it must be "run" to complete program installation. Depending
on the browser you're using the cues to run the program will be different.

If you're using Windows and the installation program has been successfully
downloaded do the following to complete installation...
1. locate the file in the folder it has been downloaded into
2. right click the file
3. from the menu that appears select "run as administrator"
3.1. if no option "run as administrator" then select "open"

spellchecker not working

Spellchecker not working.



I have tried to use your forums but gave up as the people who write on them are 
idiots or preteens or both.

I have the latest windows 8  64bit system and had this problem once before but 
cannot remember how to correct the problem.

Turned off the computer one day and doesn’t work the next time turned back on, 
No updates from any source, so it’s not that.


Any help you can give that works will be made into hard copy for future use.

Maybe M.S. is messing with the system, who knows.


Thanks in anticipation

Thank you for the compliment.  Of course, originating from an idiot or a 
preteen, you probably won't feel like following my advice.

The cure for most spellcheck problems is to delete or rename your OpenOffice 
user profile.  Details are given in

Still he asks for help from the idiots. There are four  Roger Meakes in
the UK, this one makes his mother proud. And he gets help inspite of
insulting us

Crashing

2015-03-30 Thread Alice Mangiante 


Every time I try to copy and paste something onto OpenOffice Writer, my 
OpenOffice crashes and a recovery process has to be started for my work, 
luckily no work is lost. I have an up to date version of OpenOffice.


Thank you



Alice
