LibreOffice 5.1.3 stuck on "verifying" Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

Thanks a lot. Worked like a charm! Macbook Air early 2014, OSX 10.10.5. LO 5.2.1.2

I question why I need to do this on every new version of LibreOffice I install, but I’m very happy this works. Thanks!

Thank you very much, this works

Thanks so much. Sorry that I cannot upvote your answer, since >5 points are required.

thx ! the terminal command worked very well for a macOS 10.10.5 and LO 5.2.5

This helped me too, thanks !

Works great on OS X 10.10.5.

it works on El Capitan OS X 10.11.6 and with other applications too!!

Worked, ty (cannot upvote since I got less then 5 points, else I would) Ty again, saved my b*hind <3

It solved the issue for me after lots of frustration. Yosemite 10.10.5 with L0 6.0.2.1. Thanks a lot!

don’t have enough credits to up-vote! works on 10.10.5

Works Great on Os x Yosemite version 10.10.5

Worked for me too on OSX10.10.5. I wonder if the my problem was that I had OpenOffice running when I tried to initiate LibreOffice. When I eventually managed to open LibreOffice, I realised it was designed to pick up where OpenOffice had left off.

This trick with the terminal unfortunately didn’t work with OS 10.10.5 + LO 6.2.8. Still hung up.

Found the work around!

Read this article, worked like a charm! http://www.italovignoli.org/2012/08/libreoffice-and-mountain-lion-macos-x-10-8/

This worked forme as well. Pleased!

Thanks a lot, it is successful. First time I got such problems with LibreOffice…

I guess you mean LO 5.1.0.3.
I had the same problem

The verification took a long time and my computer got almost completely unresponsive.

Activity Monitor indicated that kernel_task had grown to more than 6.3GB (real memory). My machine has 8GM memory. It did not take very much CPU time, but everything came virtually to a halt. Even the clock sometimes lagged minutes behind. The verification process took more than 2 hours and 15 minutes, after which I had to leave. When I returned it had finished, so I know it took less than 5 hours. Ater confirming that I wanted to run the application downloaded from the internet, LO continued, but it took at least 10 minutes before it appeared. In the meantime the kernel_task memory footprint still was high, but later it dropped back to more reasonable values.

I did this twice, with a reboot in between. The reboot didn’t solve the problem.

I also tried LO 5.0.5, and its verification took about 5 minutes (still quite long I think), with kernel_task going up to about 4GB. But at least the system continued to work normally.

So it seems there is something fishy with LO 5.1.0.3

Same experience for me. LO 5.1.0 didn’t complete verification and CoreServicesUIAgent used up >6 GB Memory and 100% CPU. LO 5.0.5.2 at first seemed to behave the same way, but after a few minutes it continued normally as expected. (MacBook Air, Yosemite, 4 GB Memory)
