OpenOffice Portable

Welcome goes into a loop

I have the latest, version 10 of PortableApps. Open Office installed successfully on my USB key/thumb drive. However, the welcome page has "next" that works, the User Name page has "next" that works, but the registration page has "next" greyed out. This means that regardless of what option I choose (Register now, or Register Later, or Don't Want to Register), to activate that option I only have 3 choices--back (doesn't complete the welcome part), finish (seems to do the same as cancell) and cancell (cancells whatever option I had chosen).

Running OOPortable live from CD

Submitted by hernacar on September 23, 2011 - 1:36pm

Hello,

I am in need of running OOPortable from CD. I followed the instructions given:

I installed OOPortable on my hard drive. The files are contained in F:\OpenOfficePortable. I ran OpenOfficePortable.exe and ran through the initial setup (First Name, Last Name, Company > Would you like to Register?, etc.).

Moving File Locations

Submitted by Go4Troy on July 17, 2011 - 8:54pm

I've installed OpenOffice and manually changed the default file locations to a documnent directory of my choice. For Example:

Calc doc will be saved to: C:\My Documents\Spreadsheets
Writer will be saved to: C:\My Documents\Word

You get the idea....

Then I save the changes, and exit OpenOffice. When I open OpenOffice again, the default setting are back, and my changes are gone.

How do I get them to stick?

Troy.

OOo Portable and Zotero Citation Plug-In

Submitted by martinatlismore7t on January 9, 2011 - 8:08pm

I have just spent 3 full days (on and off) trying to install Zotero v2.0 in OpenOffice portable v3.2. My OS is Win7-x64.
So far, I have tried all of the suggestions in the OpenOffice forums and even thought up a few new ones, all to no avail.
I am absolutely at my wits end.
I love OpenOffice and I love Zotero and I prefer to keep them together instead of separate.
