Re: Error message
How were you trying to access this file - using File | Open, from the Recent Files list or some other method.
Have you tried using the file manager in MacOS (named Finder I believe) to locate the file.

[Solved] Missing Document After OpenOffice Upgrade
From Finder try File → Open, or Go → Recents, or Go → Recent Folders. If you cannot find your file in Finder or in Spotlight, that is not an OpenOffice problem. Depending on how you have configured MacOS and iCloud, your computer may move documents for you to match what you have specified and make OpenOffice's File → Recent Documents feature unreliable. In this case do not attempt to use the feature.robleyd wrote:How were you trying to access this file - using File | Open, from the Recent Files list or some other method.
Agreed. You may find better assistance in a forum for Apple software if you have questions about MacOS or iCloud configuration.Bidouille wrote:Not an OpenOffice issue.
