General input/output error on OpenOffice 3.2
- by Scott
I have been working on a research paper in OpenOffice 3.2 Word Processor and I had a slide show OpenOffice 3.2 Presentation. I saved both frequently and they were not very big (no more then 5 pages of text or a few slides). A few days after I last edited and saved them, I tried to open the slide show but I received window saying:
General Error.
General input/output error
When I tried opening the paper, it asked for ASCII Filter Options (font, character, language, and paragraph break). When I set the normal settings, a single blank document opened with nothing on it.
I looked at both of the file's properties and the size was 0 or 1.5 KB, and the volume was unknown.
I recently installed some updates for Ubuntu 10.10 and everything else in my computer is working normally including other documents and slide shows.
Is this a fixable crash?
