Compatibility from MS Word 2007 to LibreOffice Writer
by LeRoy Diener 25 Oct '19

Hi NMGLUG folks, How can a file from MS Word 2007 retain formatting while editing in LibreOffice Writer? DETAILS I have a .docx file which is a short book which I wrote in MS Word 2007. Most of the doc is in a 2-column layout. I have a Table of Contents, which uses the "Styles" feature. I opened the file in LibreOffice Writer and saved as .odt. Now, when I update the Table of Contents, I lose some formatting, and it's all a mess. Any ideas? I'm using LibreOffice 5.2.7.2 I found this article https://office-watch.com/2017/libreoffice-5-4-ms-office-document-compatibil… Thoughts? (By the way, I want to express my gratitude to everyone who contributes to help novices like me.) -- I am the Love of God, no matter what. LeRoy Diener 213-LEROYIZ 213-537-6949 www.leroydiener.com/

Thanks Mars. I tried it and it failed. > $ curl --user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; > rv:48.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/48.0" https://www.liveauctioneers.com > curl: (35) error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 > alert protocol version > My wife can get to the "classic" liveauctioneers page but if she clicks sign in or sign up the next page is the 403 error. I tried changing the domain name as there is a "classic" site that I can access and so can she until she tries signing in. Tried several variants and most worked in a terminal but none of the commands opened a web page. Sorry for sending all of this output. Thanks and here goes. Now it's just an experiment as the MB Air is going to Dotfoil (wife is fed up). There are many thousands of lines of code beyond this but I wanted to show that at least in a terminal the site was reached. $ curl --user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:48.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/48.0"https://classic.liveauctioneers.com <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML+RDFa 1.0//EN""http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/DTD/xhtml-rdfa-1.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"> <head> <title>Bid in Online Auctions - Live Auctioneers</title> <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"> <link rel="canonical" href="https://classic.liveauctioneers.com"> <link rel="next" href="https://classic.liveauctioneers.com/browse/page2"> <link rel="alternate" media="only screen and (max-width: 640px)" href="https://m.liveauctioneers.com"> <meta name="description" content="Get in on the auction -- bid LIVE online on art, antiques, jewelry and collectibles.

Mac air
by Brian O'Keefe 23 Oct '19

23 Oct '19

Hello all, My wife has a 7 year old macbook air. She does all her business on it which is using Firefox for research purposes, email and report writing with LibreOffice. Recently she is getting a 403 Forbidden error for a specific website, liveauctioneers.com. Live auctioneers has suggested a cache or cookie issue so we cleared all those out. They suggested another browser so we tried Safari with the same error. I have searched the forums and nothing there is helpful, at least on my level. Can anyone figure why a specific website and only that website does not play well with the Mac Air? I have reset the router, as suggested by liveauctioneers. So there is something configured in the laptop that is pervasive. I just don't know what to fix. The one website with detailed instructions was specific to wordpress but on the laptop, not in a browser. Can anyone help? Many thanks Brian --

Hi This morning morning when attempting to access various web sites "Twitter" would intervene and prevent access with offers to join. With some shot in the dark "fiddling" in Preferences and a second attempt could access nmglug. Can anyone explain and offer the remedy.Thanks a

Nmgluggers, We meet tonight as usual. Hope to see new faces and familiar ones. I plan to bring this hp stream14, working via external mouse. An interesting state of broken input and output devices. Not sure whether hardware or software is at the bottom of thus, but keyboard did have 'water event' in the past. 64 gb emmc working w/Xubuntu, on screen keyboard and lots of mouse clicks. Hope somebody has something we can work on & solve. :-) Thank you, Ted P.
