Description SDunn 2006-07-18 15:36:08 UTC
When I try to save a file in ANY of the applications I get the following warning in a dialog:"Could not find mime type application/octet-stream"

When this dialog is up, my mouse does not work, I must press enter or esc key. 

When I do that, I get another dialog box: "No MIME Types Installed"

Again, mouse still doesn't work until I press enter or esc several times, after that everything returns to normal.

It would allow me to resave an existing document, but changing an existing one and trying to save as a different file name or creating a new document - it would give the error above.

The workaround for this is to:
Select the Tools menu, then Options->General. check the box Use OpenOffice dialogs (located under the Open/Save Dialogs).
