what version ? and where ?
 
I have an ibook G3 with 64 MB ram , 300 mhz , mac OS 10.1.5 .
I'm looking desperately for a version of Limewire that works with these characteristics .
I heard Limewire 4.8 would work , but I can't find it :(
Can please someone help ? You would make my day .

Thanks everyone

BTW I would highly recommend getting more ram for your iBook. Otherwise you may struggle. Or should I say, LW will struggle with such little ram & HDD space. LW uses a lot of Virtual Memory also, so an external HDD if handy might help.

hey Hobo ,
I got it , I installed it and it works perfectly !!!
thank you so much man :) you made my day !!!


Lord of the ring you're right . I 'm actually thinking to upgrade it but i was wondering how much the costs are gonna be .

I found 256mb Ram on internet for 75$ , but I don't know how to install it , do you think it's easy ?

sorry for the O.T

Hobo tahnks again :)

I didn't notice the 64 MB Ram I must admit.... but that is according to the LW site the minimum requirement.. No idea if it might just be enough or not

You can fit extra memory into a Power Mac easily enough ..not sure about a Laptop

Start from here & choose your model & then type of accessory to add: http://www.apple.com/support/diy/

There will be a quicktime movie to show how to do, also another one for safety; re: potential static electricity damage, & also a pdf.

I used this page to find out how to do it for an early G4 not so long ago.

It's not difficult. I had some issues fitting it in properly but other than that. You may need to add a bit more pressure than they suggest but just making sure all the pins line up 1st. It didn't seem to fit in for me at 1st. lol :D I was sweating upon it incase I did damage b/c I know how sensitive they are both to static & pin damage. (yes I worked in electronics once upon a time. :D Ah it's getting close to easter time & april 1st)

OH hold on, I just noticed there's no iBook G3's on the list. You'll need to check with your local apple dealer to be sure you can add more ram. I just check Mactracker, & it seems the G3 iBooks only have one slot. But even the earliest has the ability for 300-500 MB ram & later to over 600 MB ram. So I guess you'd replace the old one with a large one.
