Erm, so my limewire folder isn't in the C drive. does that matter? i'm on xp. |

If you are referring to the preferences folder, that will be on your system drive, in your user account. But you will only have one if you have previously opened LW. |
Can't connect Can someone please help me?? :blink: I am using Windows XP with McAfee security and limewire will not connect. I have had this problem before and I went through the process of configuring the port to 6346 etc and it worked. However I have recently updated my McAfee and now LW can't connect, even when I configure the port in McAfee. Is there anything else I can do? I really want to get LW working!!! I am using broadband and have got the latest version of LW (the free version). Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks :wai: |
Despite what McAfee says, make sure Windows firewall is turned off. Remove the previous firewall rule from McAfee & re-add it. Some firewalls are like that, an update of either the firewall or LW software means the the rule needs to be re-added afresh. Other than that, try a combination of these steps, such as replacing the gnutella.net file: If LW Will Not Connect (click on the blue link) :) |
Limewire wont work with majicjack i think i figured that much out if i am wrong let me know , cuz i think thats why i cant connect,. Does anyone limewire connect that uses majicjack? if so let me know and how you did it, Thank you |
Thanks for the reply Lord of the Rings, I tried going through each of the steps you gave me in the link and managed to get it to connect, but I have to keep deleting the .limewire folder each time I want to use LW. A bit weird but I don't mind doing it as long as it works, Thanks so much for your help :rolleyes_2: |
Hi all. Newbie here & need help. I need the "How to do this for DUMMIES" version. Here is some info: Windows XP CA Security (I will need a https site for this in the allow section) Updated Java Downloaded & used crap cleaner Downloaded, removed, downloaded LW I have the icon & try to open it and nothing happens. Like I said, I need a DUMMIES version here. Please give me a step by step guide to help me fix this. I looked around & most of the answers were way over my head! If I add the LW site to my CA Security, do I have to turn off my firewall? I do not feel comfortable doing that. Is there a way to get around that step? Thanks for any help you can give. |
ARGH! STILL having trouble. I have been at this since 6:30 this a.m. I have the icon & nothing opens. What is wrong? I have downloaded Java, a 2nd Java, reinstalled, rebooted several times now. Grr. I amnot any closer than I was at 7 this a.m. I have followed all the steps I could find in other postings. HELP! Is anyone out there? |
