My Apple iMac is Mac OS Big Sur Version 11.6 and the Open Office version is 4.1.6. I have attempted to download the latest versions on a number of occasions without success. When I tried downloading Version 4.1.11 I received the message " The file Apache Open Office 4.1.11 Mac OS x86-64 doesn't appear to be a valid download file". Is there anything I can do to overcome this problem? For some reason the program on my computer is called Apache Open Office 3

The file name you provided does not appear to be a valid file name. It is truncated and contains spaces instead of underscores. The file I downloaded successfully was named "Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.11_MacOS_x86-64_install_en_US.dmg". Did you change the file name?
