Base isn't running right on my Mavericks Mac

Tried version 4.5.1 and 4.5 2. 4.5.1 won’t load anything, returning an error message about a missing driver. 4.5.2 will load my .odb file but won’t let me write into it. Is Base not compatible with Mavericks? OpenOffice base has the same problem with writing.

Your version numbers don’t make a lot of sense to me. LibreOffice 4.5 series doesn’t exist yet - 4.2.2 is current ‘fresh’ version. Do you mean 3.4.5.1? If so, that is quite old and well past end of life. A great deal of work has been done since then. I don’t use Base, but other components of LO 4.2.2 work well on Mavericks.
