Default Help!

Ok, here's the story.. I have been using the previous versions of Limewire (free version) for awhile now, and only until recently I recieved a message on startup of Limewire saying there is a new version out and would you like to upgrade? so I figure sure why not. I download the new version, and it loads up fine until it gets to the part where it says "upgrade to limewire pro?" I click later, and always like a second after that, the program crashes and I get the box that says: The application Limewire has unexpectedly quit, The system and other applications have not been affected. I don't know why its doing this, Limewire has always run smoothly on my computer, and I never had this problem before I upgraded. I am running OS X Jaguar 10.2.8, and I did all my software updates, INCLUDING the Java 1.4.1 update. Can anyone help me?
P.S. Or does anyone have the old version of Limewire or know where I can download it? I would rather use the old version that works instead of having nothing at all... Thanks!!

Hi Mikey,

Try using the latest 3.6.0 beta and see if that helps at all?

You can find it at http://www.limewire.com/english/content/beta.shtml

Thanks.

Thanks for the help, but I just tried it and I had the same result... any other ideas? THANKS!

P.S. What could the problem be? It seems like some people aren't having this problem and are running Limewire fine...

Try completely uninstalling Limewire...move the Limewire folder to the trash and the Preferences folder as well. ~note this will remove all LM files including preferences...if you have special settings i.e. port settings, etc make sure you remember what they are~ this will not remove files you've downloaded unless you have them saved there.

Once you've done so repair permissions on your hard drive (simply a precausion)...then reinstall LM 2.3.8 AND repair permissions again.
