i just recently downloaded the newest version of limewire onto my mac iBook. i have been unable to download any files since i have upgraded, i dont have pro though. when i type something to search the whole page goes white. if i click at places where things are they become visible, but i still dont think i can do anything because it would be very very tedious to highlight every option. please help me! was it something i did in the options? should i try applying a skin?

thanks in advance for your help!

sounds like a new problem, but more info needed.

Can you go to "About LimeWire" and copy the LW and java versions here?

Or, just go to the LW prefs, Bug Reports->Sample Bug Report and copy the first few lines. That will give all the basic details needed

I'm having the exact same problem. I just downloaded 4.10 Basic (running OSX 10.2.8), and now whenever I try to search for a file, I simply get a blank white screen. There's no title in the search tab, though I can revert back to the original "Search" screen. Please help!!!

did you try a different skin?

Otherwise, shut down for 2 minutes (to clear the virtual memory), restart by holding down the shift key as soon as you hear the start-up sound (safe boot mode), restart again (to get back to normal mode), and try again.

The above suggestions are for routine maintenance. Hope they work.

For OS 10.2 it's generally the skin. Do as Stief suggested. You can change it under the View menu.
