Program doesn't start up

Feedback Type: Troubleshooting Report

Contributed by: nragusa Saturday, March 31 2007 @ 03:08 PM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

OpenOffice will not start. It says that my system (OSX 10.4.9) needs Apple X11. I have tried to locate this, but cannot find it. I find updates, but those won't work without the original software.

Where can I download and install Apple X11?

Thanks,

Nick

X-11 is an optional install contained on your Panther or Tiger start-up installer disc.

Apple X11 is on your Tiger installer disks (if you have them). I haven't yet installed X11 (you are warned to back everything up first, and I don't have a Plan B), but I think installing it is fairly straightforward.

You'll find X11 on your install disks. Quick install from there.

Apple X11 is available as an optional install on your original Mac OS instal CD or DVDs. If you shoose the custom instal option you can select what you want to instal ie the X11. Be very careful- Make sure that you don't instal anything else or you will affect your existing system!
