My limewire doesn't work at all!! I came across the same problem a month or two ago, but when I upgraded my limewire, the problem disappeared.. for about a week, before coming back again! Today, I deleted all files related to limewire, and limewire itself, then re-installed it, hoping that this might sort the problem out. It hasn't. I have also looked over some previous problems posted in this forum. I read about the 'fake files' possibly being responsible for the 'need more sources' dilemma, and tried to download a file that was from only 23 servers, that failed, so I tried 15, and when that failed I tried a file from one server. Nothing works, I have the same problem with every file. Also, when I hover over one of the little icons at the bottom, it says "limewire has detected a firewall".. I don't know what that means and if that could be the problem, or if it's relevant at all? I can only download "cable/DSL" files, if that is of any relevance? Also, I am using limewire 4.12 (basic), on an iMac that is almost 5 years old. I think it's a G3, it's one of the ones that is sort of see-through, coloured along the sides, and doesn't have a tower.
Please help!! This is becoming very annoying for me so any advice anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated!?
