Lime Wire 5 not connecting I just installed Lime Wire 5 and cannot connect to the network. I checked my firewall (which is just the windows XP one) and it has an exception - in the advanced tools it gives me the message: "you are a leaf node you are behind a firewall and do not support firewall transfers" Windows XP home edition |
If someone gave me a penny for the amount if times i have replies to a post regarding this same problem, i'd be a rich man. The problem is simple, it is not yours, it's the new version of LimeWire's. Even if you do eventually connect to the network you will get hardly any results anyway, which is another huge issue in LimeWire 5.0. I have said to another few people today that the newest version of software is not always the best. My advice is to go back to LimeWire 4.18, its faster and much more reliable. Here is the link to download that version Download LimeWire Basic 4.18.8 - FileHippo.com Hope this helps, my friend :D |
but what if you HAD PRO? |
I do have PRO, 4.18 PRO |

If your Pro benefits have expired, then you won't be able to download a 4.18.8 Pro. If you choose to install a basic version & don't have Pro installers saved, or current Pro benefits, then you'll lose the Pro version originally installed:( |
I paid for my pro update before I downloaded the new LIMEWIRE, that's when all this trouble started,,,and I am NOT getting any help from LIMEWIRE. |
You don't have to SHOUT:rolleyes: No need to yell at us - we don't work for LW. If you want help from LW support specifically, then use the Pro support link here:Lime Wire » LimeWire PRO Support Center If you just updated Pro from the official site, go to your personal download page (the email that you recieved from LW after updating has a link to the page) & there you can download 4.18.8 if you're not happy with LW 5. If you're still having connection problems after that, please see this thread: If LW Will Not Connect |
Pissed off I just paid for a year member ship of Lime wire Pro Does not connect. Problem started about a week ago. There is a problem with lime wire Pro so DON'T buy it until they FIX it...Will we be given free time? I doubt it...they don't even respond to your emails in tech support :mad2::mad2::mad2: |

As I said in the post above yours (did you even read it?), the helpers here don't work for LW. So it's really doing no good for you to have a rant here... the people who work for LW aren't going to read it. Here, you get help from volunteers who have used LW for years. That's all. If you're after an official response to complaints, you won't get it here. What you will get is advice that may help you, if you want to try. If you want to try to sort out your LW issues, then click on this link: If LW Will Not Connect The reason that there are so many different fixes is because so many different fixes have worked for so many different people with different setups. If you don't want to go through that process then you can go & vent over at this other forum where the LW employees actually post (click on link): LimeWire Forums - Powered by vBulletin Don't worry - we get mightily pissed off as well, when people get all steamed & post over here with all their LW grievances. When all we're trying to do is help. |
Sorry legend!!! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: |
