can no more use Open office
Hello,
I was currently using Open Office, because it looks much more easy than Microsoft Word, namely for adding images to a text.
It was up to the time, this morning, when I received an advice from you to download the new edition 4.1.0.
I downloaded it, and replaced my old edition by the new one. But finally, when I tried to use it, I received the message: Not compatible with Mac OS X 10.6.8.
I did not find how to recover my previous edition of Open Office. Thanks for explaining what I should do for using again Open Office.
I did not find anymore how to send a message to your French-speaking forum.
Best regards, Olivier Cahen

sad but true, openoffice 4.1 is not compatible with pre-10.7 mac osx systems because apple switched from 32bit to 64bit since 10.7, and openoffice developers cannot afford supporting both versions. however, openoffice 4.0.1 is good too, and you may continue using it on your 10.6 system. i used even 3.4.1 up to a week ago and was quite happy with it.

There are some issues reported by OSX users that are common with their
newer OS. One is that the application is not "verified" using
GateKeeper, please make sure is not activated at the time of
installation.
Another issue is this one: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119006
Where the savestate is blocking new interactions. Please provide
detailed information of the dialog you are being presented.
