i go to search for a song, artist, image, everything, but nothing shows up in the results window and i wait up to about 5 minutes. does anyone know how to fix this problem? this happened on limewire 4.12, and i downloaded 4.14 and it's still doing it

Is your LW connected properly (all green/blue connection bars)? If it's connected, try the fixes below.

1. In LW go tools > options > searching > basic & check whether the 'show license warning' box is ticked. If it does, untick it > Apply > ok...see if that makes any difference.

2. Problems with the search

3. Delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will change all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things.
