About LibreOffice for Mac LibreOffice is a free software office suite developed by The Document Foundation as a fork of OpenOffice.org. It is compatible with other major office suites, including Microsoft Office, and available on a variety of platforms. LibreCAD for Mac is a fully comprehensive, open source, 2D CAD application. It is available in more than 20 languages and is also cross platform for all major operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Mandriva, Suse, etc).

LibreOffice on my Mac running 10.6.8 keeps nagging me that I should upgrade my 4.2.6.3 (US English) and that 4.2.8 is available. But when I click the link I get to the standard page for downloading the latest version, which is useless for me. I can’t upgrade my Mac beyond 10.6.8, by the way.So my questions:1. Where can I download 4.2.8 for Mac2. Why is it impossible to find that download3. If this version is now deprecated, then why does the upgrade dialog talk about it and why isn’t the situation explained on the website.4. Why is there no clear list of versions with their system requirements to be found on the website.5. How can I stop that upgrade prompt from appearing, and if I can’t, please add that possibility. (Well, that would be in a newer version, so forget about that one ...)

Hi Alan,


Depends what OSX version he is on...


If 10.7.0 or later...


Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.


If 10.6.8 or less, 2 options...


Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.


(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)


Or...


Open office os x 10.6 8

Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...


Libre Office For Mac 10.6.8

/sbin/fsck -fy


Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.


(Space between fsck AND -fy important).


PS. I'd hold off on Yosemite until it get more fixes.
