What happened?
Posted: Mon Mar 11, 2013 9:49 pm
I am a bit stumped. I have been using OOO for a couple years. Last night was working in a document saved my work blah blah, much like I have done in the past.
Fast forward to this morning, the nightmare starts, OOO seems stuck on recovering documents, will not allow you into the document. OK, I uninstall, reinstall, thinking that will work. So on 3.4.1, STILL SAME THING, tried to "REPAIR" install, seemed to work for a sec, then it crashed, and says it needs to recover the very document I was editing.
Uninstalled again, re-installed, and it still seems stuck on recovering every document I open in a spreadsheet.
Not sure what happened, or where to go to find a fix, so hoping someone here has a clue, or suggestion.

OK well, I give up. Tried everything suggested...again, thank-you!
Seemd to work just fine after I renamed the pmap thing. Was just fine, for like 3-4 days. Then the "Need to restore" not responding issue came back. Tried all the tricks learned here...for like 2-3 days, frustration led me to seek another source for my word processing needs.
Deleted OOO off the laptop, it no longer exists, maybe it is just my PC LP, maybe it is something else, but it is what it is, still works on another PC at home , and at the office, but the LP, just refuses to co-operate.
Again Thank-you for the assistance,it helped, but just did not fix it. For now just going to see how things work out, as for right now, I have a back up on the LP, seems to be the same with a few nice features, also works with OOO DOCs, so may just switch everything over, best of luck OOO!
