Re: [libreoffice-users] "Restore Windows" bug

Thanks for the link to the OpenOffice thread, it is exactly the problem I am having.  Nice to know 
it will be an easy fix... once I can find the System folder!  I can't seem to find "Users" or 
"Library" at all.  Using Finder, I am pulling up "System Preferences" and "System Information," but 
no "System."  Like I said, Mac retarded.  :(

Any directives would be much appreciated!

Thanks~
