Thanks for letting us know. I wonder if that update includes a bug fix for QT.

LW 4.10.5 is the "official" version however, there's been betas trialled out since; see http://www.limewire.com/english/content/beta.shtml
You can get some more details in the Beta section of the forum if you wish to trial the betas & help problem solve. You can also catch up on improvements & bug fixes here http://www.limewire.com/english/cont..._history.shtml

cool thanks for the advice! (had no idea about beta!)

lots of smiles =)

o nooo! worked for one day after new osx intel 10.4.5 update and then stopped again! quits as soon as its opened! tryed 4.10.9 but same thing...help!

smiles =)

I don't know if this applies to everyone else, but after upgrading to Tiger I found an external firewire capture device wouldn't work due to QuickTime. The solution is here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
After that I installed QT 7.0.4 & LW had no problems running with it at all. I guess the problem might have been having QT 6 still on the system in my receipts folder. But I never did try QT 7.0.4 before that so I don't know if there would have been a problem for me also. (BTW I've heard a rumour Apple might get rid of their firewire options. At least the FW800.)


Giani try reinstalling your Java. Use the "Offline" installer from the apple site. I'd also recommend updating to Java 1.5 & forcing LW to use 1.5 if you haven't done this already. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301073 for instructions for forcing LW to use Java 1.5 & Java 1.5 can be found here Java 1.5 release 3. I'd also recommend deleting your LW preferences folder whilst LW is CLOSED found here /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire

thanks for the tips, unfortunately the that version of java cannot be installed on intel mac, so problem persists!!

I suspect you're mistaken. Go to your Receipts folder; ie: OSX > Library > Receipts & I suspect you may well find Java 1.5 already there. If it is, then remove the Java 1.5 version & then try reinstalling it.

I didn't see anything in the requirements about particular machine or having 1.5 Release 1 1st.

all i have there is the java.pkg, but then the version that cannot be installed on my intel mac was the 1.5 release 3, so will now try with release 1.

thanks!

Quicktime fix worked for me THANKS!
 

Now my Limewire works. I tried all the tips,
Remove Chess game, reinstall Java, etc... This Quicktime unstall worked for me.
Thanks for the help everyone. Good luck!
:D

The link for the 7.0.1 version doesn't seem to be working...

But do you have QT 7.0.4? If yes, then update. Otherwise see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.h...tnum=301852-en
