Hi :)
Can you try reinstalling 3.6.5?  Perhaps download the installer from the LiberOffice website 
afresh.  When you try to install it there should be an option to "Repair" and that might let you 
add the "Quickstarter" component.  Then in LibreOffice itself go to
Tools - Options - Memory
errr, sorry, is that the same for Macs?  The bottom option should be a tick-box allowing you to 
have the quickstarter on.  That effectively stops LibreOffice from completely closing.
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice suddenly hanging on my MacBook Pro

LibreOffice 3.6.4 and 3.6.5.  I have been running LibreOffice for 
several years with no problems.  When I check for updates I am told 
3.6.5 is the latest version for the Mac.

This program was working fine a couple of days ago.  I think I may have 
installed a Mac update since then but I'm not sure, which could explain 
the problem.  I can find nothing in the log files.

The problem is that if the ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice 
directory exists, LibreOffice will hang when I try to start it.  If I 
try to delete this directory the computer will hang.  If I force the 
computer to quit and restart it, the directory will have been moved to 
Trash and LibreOffice can be started once.

Once started it seems possible to open, change and save LibreOffice 
files, but once you exit the program you can't get back in.

I have not tried this but it might be possible to get LibreOffice 
running and to minimize it when not needed, thereby avoiding exiting.  
However, I really would like a solution to keep it from hanging.

The more I think about it the more it seems possible this was caused by 
a Mac update installed in the last couple of days.
