Getting Started Again (always connecting)
 

I haven't used Limewire for some time and now I cant get going again. I uninstalled Limewire and reinstalled, uninstalled Java runtimes and re-installed. On the bottom left it says "connecting" with a small amount of green showing but it never connects.

1 Windows XP
2 Microsoft
3 512 mb RAM
4 Hard disk free 18.69 GB
5 Dial up
6 56 Kbps modem
7 Home
8 Latest
9 ISP Telkom South Africa
10 Test OK
11 No
12 New
13 Yes
14 Port
15 Anti virus AVG 7.5
16 South Africa

Many thanks.

this is my problem too
 

what did you finally do to get it running?:shoot:

I haven't been helped yet so cant help you, sorry!

When you uninstalled Limewire did you use the LW uninstaller (start - All Programs - Limewire - uninstall) -- if you used the add/remove program this can cause problems.
In Limewire Links (below) click on (If LW will not connect) and go through these fixes -- if still no good click on (Fixes for LW when LW isn't operating as it should) let us kinow how you get on

Follow the instructions I have given to Gilean in my post #4 -- let us know how you get on

I deleted using the Limewire uninstaller. And I forgot to say all my troubles started when I downloaded the latest version of Limewire. Can I have the old one back with my library in the right place - please!! Joke! I'll try your suggestions. Thanks

I turned off auto-connect, waited 5 mins, connected, disabled tips and autoconnect, quit, relaunched, connected - NOTHING.

I did the clean up of all LW, removed JRE, restarted PC, downloaded JRE, downloaded LW -NOTHING (and it took ages to do!) LW is still not connecting. What do I do now???

A MINUTE LATER - AND IT'S WORKING, IT'S CONNECTING! I CANT BELIEVE IT. I think doing the clean uninstall of LW was the answer.

Well done -- E N J O Y
