LibreOffice 7.1.0.3 crashes on MacOS Big Sur 11.2.2

edit

I have reinstalled LibreOffice 3x by now

Please note If a problem is caused by a corrupt user profile, reinstalling LibreOffice won't help at all, since this won't touch the user profile. Therefore: Before reinstalling check whether the user profile might be the cause of a problem.

To test whether LibreOffice user profile is causing the issue:

• Start LibreOffice
• Restart in Safe Mode using Help → Restart in Safe Mode and confirm the restart using button: Restart
• Click button Continue in Safe Mode
• Perform the procedure showing the problem and check whether the problem is gone (If you need to open a file, use File → Open - do not use some other procedure)

If that works, most likely you user profile is corrupt and you need to reset to factory settings (see also options when starting Help → Restart in Safe Mode).

I have the same problem, my partners send me documents .docx, and is imposible to open it, I try with the safe mode and doest work. Any idea?

@Norelena

• ... and you are using macOS as well and same LibreOffice version?
• ... how do you try to open .docx files (do you save 'em and use File -> Open via LibreOffice)?

PS.:

I have the same problem

You really have exactly the same error message as described in the question? Or does that mean: "I can't open .docx document sent to me"? Having the same symptom, does not necessarily mean, there is the same solution to your problem.

Hi,

• Yes, I am using the same version of mac and LibO
• I recibe the documents by email, and I download it and then i try to open in my computer

And yes, i have the same symptom... sorry my bad

Thanks Opaque, I followed your advice to start LibreOffice in safe mode and ,lo and behold, it worked. The only issue is, I have a brand new computer MacBook Pro MacBookPro 17,1; Apple M1; running on macOS Big Sur. I shall try to reset it and see what happens. hskoppek
