These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. 10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit. 13. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

| Thanks for your support. You know that aside from installer issues, we have a program to work on and improve. Installers are tools that we use and they should work without our having to worry about it. When installers don't work, there isn't much we can do. Given the deteriorating state of the Gnutella network right now, 95% of our 300,000 daily users would prefer us to spend time on improving the network. Thanks -greg |

| I realize that developper at ZeroG are supposed to work on this problem for many month and we have no solution for the installer. It is suppose to installAnywhere but it installNowhere: always the same problem at 2/3 of the process - it stall. The LimeWire_Installer is on my desktop and I doubleclick for opening it. |

| I have to say that I find flames like the one that started this thread "Finally solved my prob, NO THANKS TO THE DEVELOPERS!" offensive. LimeWire is an AMAZING program and the developers are doing a tremendous service to the OSX user community. Sure there are problems. Have you looked at the list of platforms supported. Might be easier for them to just concentrate on Windows. But I'm glad they don't. afisk, thanks. OSX wouldn't be what it is without LimeWire. |

| The problem is not the developpers of LimeWire who constantly give us a better and better tool. The problem is that they give the product of their work to ZeroG who does not seems able to give us an installer which goes well. No one seems to be able to give us advise for running the installer. I see that it stall at the moment where it is suppose to find .limewire/limewire.props and continue the installation. But why it stop there? It is no use to developp LimeWire if we can not install it. For the time, I have download the basic version suggested without installer. After, I gathered the .jar files and some other files in the Contents of the pro version of the LimeWire_Installer. I put the files in the basic verson (replacing them). I have now the pro version starting with the limewire.jar. |

| Okay I agree with what recherchemp3 is saying above, but we do pay money for the Pro version and should be getting something that actually works. I downloaded the unziped package as described on page one of this thread and it actually works! I'm amazed since all the version in the last four months have been disasters for me. 2.7.x Pro just doesn't work (apparently due to the installer) in it's present state. It's great when someone finds a solution, as recherchemp3 has above, it would be nice if they'd elaborate and tell us how (list of the steps). For example: Quote:

| We have updated the installer behavior with LimeWire 2.7.11, which we released from beta today. This version fixes an earlier problem where the installer would incorrectly create a limewire.props directory (instead of a file). This version will delete the directory if it finds it and properly install the file. Does this solve any of the problems you're seeing? Thanks.

| Adam, one problem. When I start up LimeWire after it goes through the setup wizerd it just sits there saying loading user interface and does not change. This is for Mac OS 9.2.2
__________________ LimeWire v4.12.6 Pro Current version: 4.12.6 Beta version: N/A Download LimeWire Basic Get It Now News: New Version Release! as of (8/18/06) | Check out the Features History to see what's been changed. Note: LimeWire has discontinued support for Mac Classic beginning at version 4.1. More Info |

| Unfortunatly, the new beta version changes nothing to my problem with the installer. It stall always at same place, just at the moment where it is suppose to do this action: RepositoryManager: lock acquired on: /Library/Preferences/.com.zerog.registry.lock I don't have this invisible file /Library/Preferences/.com.zerog.registry.lock. I had it before having problem with the installer but I deleted it because I thought it was the source of the problem. I hope you will find a solution to this problem . |
