Libreoffice save new document

I installed Libreoffice. All work fine, I can open, modify, save existing documents made on other computers.


However when I create a new document it seems impossible to save is. How is that possible? If I click 'save' or 'save as' then nothing happens.

iMac 27″, macOS 10.15

Boot into Safe Mode (How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support) by booting with the Shift key held down and check there to see if the problem persists.  Reboot normally and test again.


NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 10 minutes as it's doing the following; 

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts 

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files
