Limewire doesn´t open

josepa · #1 (**permalink**) November 20th, 2004

I have installed Mac OS 10.3.6 combo. After that limewire 4.2.2 doesn´t open anymore. I uninstall limewire, repair permissions, download and install limewire again, repair permissions one more time but it doesn´t work.

Dare I suggest it but try Standalone Java solution & follow the link.

Post back to tell us how you go. If not good, then please supply your specifics about where you're connecting from: home, work, school, etc. ? And provide the specifics of your modem & router brand name & model number.

Oh & did you try trashing your LW prefs? This sometimes does the trick. They're found here: /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire & the folder/files name is .limewire
But keep in mind once you delete the prefs you'll need to reset your settings. So make a note of hem 1st!

I have the same problem. I'm downloading the Java update right now.... I don't know what that has to do with Limewire, but hopefully it helps. Thanks.

LW is designed with Java & using the most recent version of java & LW runs/operates/utilizes on Java.
