Do I need that, or will the installation of 10.7 and up to Sierra negate the need for such a step? (telling me I CAN do something without being clear if I REALLY NEED to do that step, confuses me.)Ħ. #OPENOFFICE FOR MAC 10.6.8 DOWNLOAD UPDATE#That document (article HT202313-"Computers that can be upgraded to use OSX Internet Recovery") provides links to the firmware update required. #OPENOFFICE FOR MAC 10.6.8 DOWNLOAD INSTALL#Another link/rabbit hole in article 6271 says I need to install a firmware update to 10.6.8 if I want to do "internet restore/command-R"* of 10.7 (should something go wrong, I guess, in all the steps above.). #OPENOFFICE FOR MAC 10.6.8 DOWNLOAD UPGRADE#(Reason for asking is that the original discussion 6271 has several statements about being able to upgrade to 10.8 and higher from 10.7-see above #2, yet I thought Apple has stopped supporting 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, and 10.11 and won't allow anyone to install them that doesn't already have them.)ĥ. Upgrade to 10.12 (no intermediate OS is available any more forever?) My understanding is that the only options available to me at this time are: Does the above quote mean I MUST have the "combo, Supplemental" AND ALL THE FOLLOWING before I can install Sierra? (In other words, 4 additional "installs" after installing 10.7, just to prep for taking the giant leap to Sierra?)Ĥ. "Note, as of last writing of this tip, the only available upgrades to 10.6.6 are 10.6.7, 10.6.8, 10.7, and you can take 10.7 up to 10.7.5 Combo, Supplemental update, and 10.7.5 Security Update 2014-004 followed by 10.7.5 Bash update. After that, the discussion indicates I'll need to upgrade 10.7 to 10.7.5 before I can upgrade to Sierra is that right? In the discussion 6271, there's this: ![]() If so, I guess I will have to use one of those backups to get all my data, files, everything back on the Mini?Ģ. What happens next? Is the installer going to erase my hard drive to install the new OS? (There seems to be an indication that may occur-in that article-but it's not clear to me.)Ī. ![]() I have two independent complete backups on external drives, as recommended (disconnected).ġ. I'm hung up at the point of installing 10.7 Lion-I paid for and downloaded the installer, so I'm ready to push the button to install. I need to do this because 10.6.8 browsers are supported by fewer and fewer of my online services (bank account, doctor, etc).and of course, I need at minimum 10.10 to download, install and use Google Chrome if I want to access those accounts, for example. I'm finding it's a bit too thorough and covers way too much ground that may not be relevant to my situation. I'm trying to follow the steps in discussion 6271, Upgrading to 10.7 and above. Only 2gb RAM, but I bought more (went wild and bought 2 4gb 'cards' to replace the two 1gb original things) and will install it after I do the upgrade (or am I missing something about the order of things.since I don't believe that new RAM is recognizable to OS 10.6.8.seems I read that somewhere, maybe at OWC in the chips' descriptions?) ![]() This has been its status since at least when Apache OpenOffice 4.1.11 was released, half a year ago.I have a MacMini mid-2010 Core2Duo running 10.6.8. #OPENOFFICE FOR MAC 10.6.8 DOWNLOAD DOWNLOAD#You can still open it by going into macOS's Security & Privacy prefpane immediately after trying to launch it, where there will be a button labeled "Open anyway", but this bogus-why isn't this developer verified with Apple yet? The download page for Apache OpenOffice () has a button labeled "Important hints for OS X", but when you click on it, the only thing it says about an OS X version is "Coming soon". If you try to launch even the latest version (4.1.11) of Apache OpenOffice under macOS Big Sur (11), and maybe even Catalina (10.15), macOS will display an alert saying "OpenOffice.app cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified".And, even worse, if you save the document in OpenOffice's format (.odt), Word can't open the file. doc format, the new file won't have any of these undesired font changes. docx file in Microsoft Word, and save it as. This problem is at least partly a flaw specific to OpenOffice, because if you open the same. doc-for instance, Palatino gets changed to Times New Roman, 10 point Helvetica remains Helvetica, but it gets changed to 10 point and who knows what else. ![]() docx files, but also even some simple formatting options, like the font, font size, etc. doc, but that format doesn't save some of the newer Microsoft Word formatting options you can choose for. docx format, since Microsoft has a copyright on the format-instead, OpenOffice can save files as. docx files, and you can edit them just fine, when it comes time to save your changes, you can't save the file in.
