Solved OpenOffice keeps crashing when I try to use it. By turkris63 » Thu Apr 27, 2017 5:54 pm. I have been using Open Office for several years and I love it! Up until a few weeks ago, that is! Everytime that I try to work in it, I get a message that OpenOffice has crashed and a report has been sent to determine why it has crashed. Office Keeps Crashing. Office keeps crashing Microsoft Office 2016 For Mac Keeps Crashing acrobat professional microsoft project 2010 trial access multi-field search form doesnt work access 2010Did what you suggested. Open Office still keeps crashing in the very same fashion that it did before. What do you suggest? Jul 10, 2012 - When I am opening a document (.odt), writer crashes frequently et asks to recover the document. I can't keep a document open more than a few.
HiI don't know too much about computers etc but thought I would post here in the hope someone can help me. I am having a problem with office draw which keeps crashing - and I don't think it's my computer because I have tried 3 different computers (including a new one just brought last week -8gb ram).I think maybe my files are too large - sometimes office draw just crashes when I am working on them but my big problem is that it seems to happen a lot when I am trying to export the files into PDF. Has anyone else had this problem? After multiple tries I finally managed to convert one of my files into pdf but haven't had any luck with another file, it just crashes in the middle of the export process.
The file I am trying to export is just 16 pages, with a few pictures and text etc on some of the pages - I wouldn't of thought this would of been to large - maybe I am doing something wrong?Please Help - and thanks in advance. As a rule of thumb, final printed resolution need not normally exceed 150-210 dpi for continuous tone images (photographs) as the eye, in normal viewing conditions does not resolve more than that. Graphics images (line art) should be 300 dpi, preferable 600 dpi. Posters which are intended to be viewed from a distance can use coarser resolutions. One can gain information on this by studying the norms of old-fashioned print output.Edit: The format of choice for images to be inserted into OO is PNG.
Using JPG for photo images is helpful in reducing file size. Above all, backup, backup, backup. As a file becomes more complex it is worth backing up very regularly - perhaps even after every image insertion.
I have been using Open Office for several years and I love it! Up until a few weeks ago, that is!Everytime that I try to work in it, I get a message that OpenOffice has crashed and a report has been sent to determine why it has crashed. It then offers me the opportunity to restore the docuement, but after a minute or so (sometimes as soon as I start to work in it), I get the same result. This is happening in documents that I have used numerous times before as well as new documents that I am trying to create. Sometimes after several times of recovering the document it will start working correctly but other times it does this continuously.

I would really hate to have to switch to a different program.

Is its legitimate successor. ' My boyfriend sat down on my laptop and reset something within our malware software settings and that also seems to have taken care of it!' Yup I had this problem for a while, first a large spreadsheet crashing a few seconds after opening, then the main database doing the same thing. But after a few hiccups, managed to runI tried the 'corrupt user profile' cure but found I'd already tried that a few months back (evidence: saved user profile folder).However this malware detection issue had some promise.I went into my malware sys (Emsisoft: will be logging this with them) and change the behaviour blocker setting all the AOO exe files to TRUSTED and DON'T MONITOR.
So far, a few hours down the road, good stuff.There was a clue somewhere else about AOO not liking other active processes poking its components. We have a legal term for that over here, it's called 'Acoso'.Cheers and many thanks to turkris63. My belief is that there is a race condition which, whether or not it's that, is most prevalent at startup (opening calc or base). That term applies to two parallel processes which do not synchronise but should. If the wrong one gets there first you can have a problem. I believe the term 'thread-safe' would be a desirable aim if my guess is correct. But this may well be an unexpected side-effect of poor memory management because in the past (IIRC!!) I have upped the memory in the java start command.
So there are two things to consider if any of the sys engineers from AOO happen to be passing at the moment.I only use AOO base for data entry, most of my procedures and functions are written in HSQL. Fallout new vegas dlc order reddit. Even so, there can be issues so frequent backups are the way to go.
AND don't mix dev stuff with data entry (like I do sometimes). If your dev code goes wrong you are liable to lose recent data. Backup every session, and don't do dev work until you've saved your data entry, is what I try to live by, unless I forget.A big plus for reliability is to separate the database out from the openoffice front end (see Villeroy et al). Even better is to run the database as an HSQL server and just have the openoffice front end talk to that.OK, that's all for now, 'TTD,PTG,PTS,MTS'. @RoryOF'Try starting Windows in Safe mode, then run OO. If OO runs stable in that mode you should look for some program/driver that runs in Windows normal mode that interferes with OO.' Yup, I did think about this.
But then I thought about it a bit more and wondered how much work it would be, and how much expertise I'd need that I don't have ready to hand.In my case I do have a suspect because when I calc usually, with a specific sheet, or base sometimes I will get a crash. With base I cannot pin it down, except that sometimes it will fail with a specific spreadsheet already open.

Open the spreadsheet which always crashes. Does it do so now?
