Hi mitaking,

Please try using the newest beta (3.7.6) available at http://www.limewire.com/english/content/beta.shtml .

If that does not work, please either post here or email me ( at sberlin@limepeer.com ) with the following information:
- Logs from the installation of LimeWire. These are available from the File -> Log menu of the Installer after installation is complete.
- Logs from the Console (Applications -> Utilites -> Console) that are generated during the installation and the launching of LimeWire.

If the beta does work, also post back here and let us know.

Thanks very much,
Sam

I am reinstalling the beta link you suggested, my question is do I remove everything else LIMEWIRE in order to get a clean install? I upgraded to PRO today thinking it would resolve the issues but it didn't. By the way, I have a G5 about 2 weeks old running OSX 4.5.

I just restarted with a fresh install, it works however LIMEWIRE PRO is not the version... SIGH if it's not one thing it's another...

this is part of the report that I can send to apple:

Version: 4.11.0 Pro (LimeWire 4.11.0 Pro)

I tried to access limewire files in iTunes. It gave an error message:
Limewire tunes not accessible for unknown reason (-3260) Check any Firewall software....to allow communication port 5214. Hope this helps!

FWIW, I've also had problems with LW on a new install of OS X in the past, but after several restarts, it works.

Not sure why, but it is as if OS X requires a few tries to set the java so it works. Caching issue?
