![]() I've read all the suggestions and tried every one of them and still Limewire disconnects after loading. I'm using OSX.4.3, I,ve deleted the Limewire preferences file, checked to see that my firevault is not active, unchecked the tips at start-up window and as soon as I try to get to preferences, Limewire quits. I'm not a tech person, so complicated fixes will not work for me. Can't somebody help me? |

![]() Lord of the Rings, Please tell me exactly what questions you are referring to. I've had LW over a year and never had problems like this. I haven't used it for a couple of weeks and today I was not able to connect & kept getting an error message saying I had no internet connection. I deleted the directory as recommended and it has done no good. |

![]() The LOTR is referring to the questions below but if LimeWire stooped working all of the sudden there is a good chance your ISP has started blocking P2P networks. Can you give us a total description of your set up: 1. OS version? (Eg: Windows 98) 2. What firewalls you have? 3. How much ram? 4. Hard Disk space available? 5. Connection type? (Eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? 7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? 8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 9. Who is your ISP provider? ( AOL/MSN/Comcast/Tiscal) 10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. 11. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? These details are vital if you want us to find out what your connection problem is. * Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other. http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml 12. Do This test, Is the result True/False? http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...757#post103757 Is the result True/False 13. Do a speed test post the results here. http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ |
