- JadeNB 2y ago> I hope this version will let me open a file from within LibreOffice directly, without granting full disk access (Mac) I'm currently, for no better reason than that I haven't upgraded, running LibreOffice 24.8.0.3 on macOS Sequoia. I haven't given it FDA (checked the list of apps with FDA permissions, and it's not there), but just tried opening a few files from within the app, and had no issues.
- noja 2y agoHow did you install it? App Store or direct? Edit: I installed via the App Store. Double-clicking a file in Finder works but opening from within LibreOffice does not.
- JadeNB 2y ago> How did you install it? App Store or direct? Direct. It hadn't even occurred to me to look for it on the App Store. I went to check, and noticed that it's $9. Since the reviews suggest that it's not always kept up to date there, and since part of that $9 is going to Apple, I wonder what the advantage of installing through the App Store is over installing directly and donating $9 to the Document Foundation?
- WaxProlix 2y agoGood reminder, just went to the doc foundation and donated a bit. I've been using LO (and OO before) for ages, remiss not to pay it back at all. Thanks!
- LinuxBender 2y agoI'm just a sample of one but I've used LibreOffice on Windows, Mac and Linux and never ran into that issue. It may be worth asking about it on SuperUser [1] if that site is still useful. [1] - https://superuser.com/questions/tagged/libreoffice https://superuser.com/questions/tagged/libreoffice
