I checked those settings and they were already on "obtain automatically". UPnP is set on Limewire, but still no luck...

Not working
 

hi,

I tried using the option:

C:/documents and settings/your_username/.limewire

but it is not working.

I configured the option in lime wire to force ip.

It still not working ,

please give me any solution.

bye.

Mac OSX
 

I'm using OSX and this didn't work for me. I was using Limwire fine for about a month and all of a sudden it stopped loading. I click on the icon and it just bounces in my dock. I've deleted and reinstalled it and tried your fix and still the icon just bounces on the dock and nothing happens. When I tried to get support (I purchased PRO) the website doesn't recognize my e-mail address and it's like I never purchased it. I still have the webpage for downloading the software, but Limewire doesn't have a record of me.

deleting preferences
 

i use mac osx and can't get a connection on either one of my computers. if i delete preferences will it delete my whole file? current dowloads? etc.? i want to know what it effects before doing so. please help, i need my limewire...
thanks,
lorrie

Can someone help me?
 

Okay, I've spent the last hour reading throught posts on this forum trying to get my LimeWire to work. I started using it several months ago and it always was a bit picky about connecting - but it usually fully connected at some point in the day. Then about two weeks ago it stopped connecting and I've tried everything to get it to work again.

I deleting the user/.limewire preferences file -- didn't work.
I stopped allowing the "tips" to come up at startup -- didn't work.
I disallowed sharing with ultrapeers -- didn't work.
I changed my ISP to allow Gnutella with the directions from the LimeWire website -- didn't work (although there still is the little firewall icon in front of the globe in the lower left hand corner BUT that was usually there when LimeWire connected fine for me before.)
I changed my preferences so LimeWire does not start up when my computer starts up and I have to connect manually -- didn't work.

So, are there any other things out there that I haven't tried yet? I'm beginning to get very frustrated! I just want to download music; is that too much to ask? :confused:

Did you reset your router to UPnP

zygonr , r_beau

We will need mor info from you.

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
