What kind of problem are you having? As I recall, you just open the file (double-click) and then open the installer.

Ditto here. I downloaded the DMG, Clicked on it and ran the install.

my problem is that it says that the installation can not be found in the volume's /application folder neooffice must be installed in the /application folder before i can install the language pack...

Did you get the right install version? What Mac do you own?

Here is the URL to the Intel version.

http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/mirrors.php?file=NeoOffice-2.1-Intel.dmg

Here is the URL to the PPC version.

http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/mirrors.php?file=NeoOffice-2.1-PowerPC.dmg

There are updates, you want the full install in those URL's above. It's over 100Megs. 139Megs for the Intel Installer.

Umm, and IS NeoOffice in the Applications folder?

I think there might be some confusion here. While some applications install by simply dragging them to the Applications folder, NeoOffice is not one of them - it has an installer program (.pkg file) that you double-click, which in turn runs a setup wizard. Once the wizard completes, you'll find a NeoOffice icon in your Applications folder.

If you downloaded the right program file from the NeoOffice website, you double-click on it, which mounts it as a virtual drive. Open the virtual drive (this should happen automatically when you double-click the NeoOffice file) and then double click on the NeoOffice.pkg file to run the installer.
