OpenOffice.org is the result of over twenty years' software engineering. Designed from the start as a single piece of software, it has a consistency other products cannot match. OpenOffice.org is easy to learn, and if you're already using another office software package, you'll take to OpenOffice.org straight away. Our world-wide native-language community means that OpenOffice.org is probably available and supported in your own language. And if you already have files from another office package - OpenOffice.org will probably read them with no difficulty. Best of all, OpenOffice.org can be downloaded and used entirely free of any licence fees. OpenOffice.org is released under the LGPL licence. This means you may use it for any purpose - domestic, commercial, educational, public administration. You may install it on as many computers as you like. You may make copies and give them away to family, friends, students, employees - anyone you like.

Microsoft Office For Mac Os

How do I resolve a timeout error which occurs when I start up OpenOffice? (OOo 2.3)

When OpenOffice.org 2.3 starts up on Mac OS X 10.5, there may be a pause of some 30 seconds, followed by a dialog which reads, 'Command timed out [OK]'.

This dialog is related to OpenOffice.org starting up the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). It does this once, the first time it starts after the computer starts. If you stop and restart OOo without restarting your computer, the timeout error should not occur.

To resolve this, try these two workarounds.

Start X11 first, then start OpenOffice.org. In the Finder, select the Applications folder... Utilities... X11.app. Double-click X11.app. X11 starts. then start OpenOffice as normal.
Tell OpenOffice.org not to start Java when it starts up. In OOo, select Tools menu... Options... OpenOffice.org... Java.... The Java options pane appears. Find the checkbox 'Use Java runtime environment', and un-check it.
