@stl110017: If you want to download an audio book and OOo opens up this is a clear misconfiguration of your browser. Browsers can be reconfigured to open specific file types with specific applications. I doubt that there is no other way to get back the OverDrive behaviour than re- installing OverDrive. It must be possible to reassign OverDrive via folder settings or one can open an OverDrive media via "Open with...". If the latter is not possible this is a issue for OverDrive not OOo. But nevertheless this should be documented in the Wiki. . Everyone can add new FAQ or other pages to the OOo Wiki. For this issue, I wrote a small FAQ entry at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/FAQ/General/How_do_I_change_the_program_that_opens_a_file_that_I_double-click_in_Windows_Explorer%3F . . I did change the program associated with .odm files to OverDrive Media Console but my library downloads still get ported to OOo. I was willing to attempt to delete the .odm from known extensions but I couldn't figure out how to do that... tried searching Help for "delete known file extensions" with no luck. However, reinstalling the OverDrive Media Console seems to have worked. Still a problem on Macs. Had to uninstall AOO to get Overdrive files to stay as ODM files. |
