Compatibility & file corruption issues with latest LibreOffice

Prior to the most recent update of LibreOffice, I had no serious issues exchanging documents with Word users or importing, exporting and editing files in Writer.
The latest version is causing me several headaches. First, exporting to .doc format seems to create documents which Word users cannot open except in Google docs and, if opened in Google docs, they cannot edit them without the formatting disappearing. Exporting to .docx seems to work better but I don't like doing this in case the person has an older version of Word.
Also, my computer crashed while I was editing a document originally imported from Word. When I restarted, LibreOffice successfully recovered the file but the formatting was so screwed up that I had to get a fresh copy of the application form I was completing and start again. (Actually, I could copy and paste text successfully so I wasn't starting again from nothing but it was still pretty annoying as I'd almost finished the application when the crash occurred.)
Was I just unlucky? Or is anybody else seeing issues with the latest version?

Try again please.
As long as you have a bullet in "choose a folder to save the file in every time"  then it will not save files to a folder or automatically accept incoming files.  The main exception to that is the initiation of a file for the first time on the newer clients.  If it pops up about the new automatic saving you would click on "settings" and toggle it back to you preferred setting.  The only other exception to that are images.  Images sent to you via a mobile are sent to the cloud and will be cached/downloaded into your media folder.  That cannot be avoided.  You can cancel ongoing transfers on your end but not pending transfers.

  • I am having a file moving issue with Adobe Reader XI

    I am having a file moving issue with Adobe Reader XI on a Windows 7 32bit system. When Adobe reader is set as the default program for PDF files moving files from one directory to another takes over a minute, regardless of the size of the file. When the default handler is set to another program, like Nuance or PDF Creator, this is instant. What in Adobe Reader is causing this and what can I do to speed up file moving? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    I am using Windows 7 home edition and using Internet Explorer 10
    The PDF's are online on websites that I am trying to open.  Both on the site as well as trying in a new window.
    Thank you

  • E4200V2 file corruption issues

    Hello,
    I am getting file corruption issues when doing a file transfer onto the NAS (hard drive plugged into the router). Files are turned into folders while keeping the same filename. It happens occasionally.
    I have firmware: 2.1.39.145204 installed.
    Any remedy for this as it is a very serious problem.

    The only known solution is to call linksys and ask them for a replacement router model that does not contain the bug. See thread link for details.

  • Weird issues with latest X-Fi Driver/Software

    -Weird issues with latest X-Fi Driver/SoftwareO So I decided to update my X-fi drivers and software today, but I am running into some issues.
    First and foremost is that my Volume Panel no longer works correctly. It brings up this cheap pos window when I click on the Systray icon instead of the corrrect full featured interface.
    It lists the merdia source programs and has a volume dial, thats all this new one has.
    The other issues are that none of the software updates want to install: Alchemy, Mixer, Mediasource Go
    They all give me a message after I being to install that says "can not locate layout.bin please specify the path"? and gives my a "this setip reqires a cd" window and lists a path to a temp folder inside my windows folder.
    Installing these for Vista? Ultimate 32-bit.

  • Performance issues with latest iTunes update

    Hello everyone,
    I'm having somewhat of an issue with the latest update for iTunes (10.5), ever since the update was installed the 'AppleMobileDeviceService.exe' is using all my processing power.
    Now I know my laptop isn't the latest spec, but before this was never an issue. The only way I can still work with it is when I turn off the service via the Task Manager.
    When I launch the iTunes programme it gets even worse, another service called 'APSdeamon.exe' is eating up the processor aswell, albeit they both consume 50% now. As a result I cannot access the iTunes Store or do much else.
    I do have to mention all my music is stored on an external HDD which is connected via USB to my laptop, but this was never any different.
    I've reïnstalled all Apple components twice already, one including a specific deletion of all Apple program folders manually.
    Since I can always turn off the services manually it isn't a big issue, but does anyone have any suggestions or ideas how this could be resolved?

    Hello Mauricio,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    When you get to the step to uninstall iTunes, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step.

  • Issues with latest Illustrator CC update

    Issue with the latest update of illustrator CC on windows 7
    When copping large elements in illustrator its crashing and its crashing when dragging them across to Photoshop. I didn't have this problem until I updated yesterday afternoon.
    Its also not opening PDF files if illustrator is already open. If illustrator is closed then I choose to open a PDF in illustrator it will work, but not if a document is already open in illustrator. Will not open from bridge either, but drag and drop does still work.
    I'm having to revert back to CS5 until the problem is resolved as its destroying my work flow

  • Two issues with latest update for Windows

    I have noticed 2 issues with the new update.  When I have a file transfer I don't want, there is no longer a cancel link.  Also, when saving a file transfer that I do want, it saved it to the default location and updated my preferences to always do that.  It should respect the option setting to prompt me for a download location.

  • Server 2012 SMB 3.0 file cluster issues with Streaming media services 2008 R2

    So I have a file server setup with the always available feature turned off on this brand new cluster. Everything seems to function normally and I can hit files from the shares no problem.
    My issue I built a brand new 2008 R2 machine and created an on-demand publishing point to point to my 2012 file share cluster. I created a windows account for my windows media service to run as and applied read only to my video share. Media services see
    the video files on the server in the GUI so I know its got connectivity, but when I go to test locally or externally it will not play the stream at all. It complains of access even know I know that is not the issue. I have verified the setup and the ACL
    stuff is turned off on both the root and the publishing point. I can login to the Media server as my service account and play files from the share no problem. IIS media services can stream the files with no problem and yeah everything seems more like something
    possibly with SMB 3.0 and something in media services.
    I have a country rule where my data is not allowed in other countries so I have multiple video services on a domain with tunnels and what not my US Streaming services is working great but has a server 2008 R2 file cluster server. If I take that one to my
    out of the country publishing point to test it streams great as they use the same services account. If I take my out of the country file share to the US I get the same result just will not work. I have poke prodded and banged my head and since I get this result
    I have concluded it must be something with the new security of SMB 3.0.
    Does anyone have this working or tested? Also I am using the exact same video file to test all of this. Or is there secret I missed to either make smb 3.0 even more compatible or make streaming services play nice.
    Anything helps please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Adam

    I'd recommend calling in for support on this one.  Things aren't adding up.  Probably the most useful thing to do would be to do a network trace of the WMS server connecting to the remote server over SMB.

    Workaround for this:
    Open application in IE and click on certificate error link at address bar . Click install certificate and you are done..

  • (Video) Moving Layer Causing Lag Issue with Latest Photoshop CC (12-14-2014)

    Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQPtBTrjfzw
    I have a 218 MB PSD file that is causing me major headaches. Any time I start up the file, dragging a single layer goes at about 2 frames per second. However, if I delete one layer or simply cut and paste a layer, the lag is fixed.
    From the video:
    - Deleting a hidden layer fixes the lag
    - Removing one background layer fixes the lag
    - Cutting and pasting any background layer onto a new layer fixes the lag...
    Saving and returning to the doc causes it to lag again.
    Anyone know what's going on? Photoshop Preferences:
    Other Notes:
    - Happens in both 32 bit and 64 bit versions
    - I have the same issue with Photoshop CC 2014.

  • File.copyTo - issues with copied Flash10 Project .app

    I'm currently working on a project which has functionality to export a selected number of slides to a Folder, complete with a Flash 10 .exe or .app to play the files with.
    I've been running into a major issue with copying the .app. Once the presentation has been exported from the Installed AIR app, the .app projector file will not open, it attempts to open and immediately closes again.
    Funnily enough, it works perfectly when outputting from the Flash IDE (coding in flex) in the debugger, the .app file is copied fine and it works perfectly. It's only when attempting from the installed AIR app.
    The code I have is:
    var originala:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath(_app);
    var appX = "Presenter.app";
    var copya:File = file.resolvePath(dir+appX);
    originala.copyTo(copya);
    _trace.add("[FILE SYSTEM] Copy of Presenter.app is Package: " + copya.isPackage + ", if false, Projector will not work!");
    I originally thought it wasnt copying over the .app directory as a package, but it seems to, so that was the reason for the trace.
    I've even bought a copy of CS5 to see if the issue is resolved with the AIR 2.0 RC, it's downloading now.
    I have no idea why this isn't working and I am on a tight deadline.
    Any one got any ideas?
    Thanks.
    Joe K

    OK, I really need help with this...
    I have included a .zip (link below) which has a small test bed AIR app including all source...
    When running installed AIR app (Copy doesn't work):
    isDebugger: false
    playerType: Desktop
    version: MAC 10,1,53,64
    When previewing from .fla in Flash IDE (Copy does work):
    isDebugger: true
    playerType: Desktop
    version: MAC 10,0,12,36
    Please please please help!

    [EDIT] So it looks like I just can't copy from the applicationDirectory. But I dont want to have to include extra files with the installer I wanted to include it in the installer. Is there any way for me to do this?
    [EDIT 2] I have tried a extracting a .zip included in the package with FZip and ZipLib, both produce the same results, the .app doesnt work.

  • Possible Issue with Latest Office 2001 Update

    In the last few days my MB Air mid-2013 with Mavericks did an Office 2011 update to Version 14.3.9. Today I used it for the first time and Excel crashed each time I tried to use it. To get the job done I had to revert to the earlier build (version 14.3.8) from a backup and that appears to work normally.
    I don't know if this is an issue with Mavericks or if the update to 14.3.9 would have crashed with ML, too. Nor do I know if Word would have crashed since I had to get the task in Excel done before an appointment.

    Apparently cannot edit the above. Title should have Office 2011, not Office 2001

  • Any issues with latest 2014 ios update & Straight Talk

    Hi, I've been with straight talk for about 2 weeks without any problem - switching --porting--pics.....all went well . Now my phone ( iPhone 3c) shows iOS update waiting..
    Due to all I have read here & there,I'm a bit uneasy to do the update. Has anyone had any issues with lates t2014 ios update using ST? Will it affect the working of the phone if I don't do update? Thanks for any input.

    Hi, Glad  that worked for you. I don't know why this is happening other than to offer an opinion. This hardware acceleration was causing an issue with the previous version of FP also. I think that this technology is ready but the websites are not, youtube included.
    The same thing happened with Flash Player for the mobile phones, Android in particular. Adobe was ready but had to wait on Google to catch up. So the users thot Adobe was at fault, but that wasn't the case. Google had to update and that was done with their 2.2 update. This is not an opinion however. I followed this because users were coming here asking why Flash Player wasn't available for their Android:-)
    Adobe/Microsoft/Mac/Linux are all involved and if one advances a particular technology that effects the others, then each one must make a change for that technology to work. At least that's how I see it.
    Thanks for marking your thread as answered
