Can someone please tell me how to fix this.

Restart your computer and hold down the shift key right after you hear the start-up tone ("Safe Boot").

Do a Software Update (Apple Menu).

Restart normally.

Does this help?

Nope, Still happens.

K. Same thing happens if you create a new Admin user account (System Preferences->Accounts) and run LW from there?

Yes.

OK--so the problem is with the OS X java installation.

Does reinstalling Java work? Here's the link http://www.apple.com/downloads/macos...4release5.html

Fatal error on Mac OS 10.4.9...me too!
 

Hi All,

It would seem this really is an issue, I had the same problem on my Intel Core Duo MacBook running Mac OS 10.4.9 with the latest Java version J2SE 5.0. When I try to launch the application it pops up with a "fatal error" message and when I click on Details here is what it says:

LimeWire version 4.13.2
Java version 1.5.0_07 from Apple Computer, Inc.
Mac OS X v. 10.4.9 on i386
Free/total memory: 16297016/19791872

Very frustrating, as before the update it worked perfectly fine!!!:bangh:

Thanks,
Michael

Yeah,

I also removed it all and installed an old version which did exactly the same thing :mad:

Can someone please fix this! Fix the coding bug or what ever it is i dont know! PLEASE FIXXXX

Sorry crussher--I'm out of easy solutions why your java isn't working. If java won't work, trying to find a problem with LimeWire is impossible. If Phex, http://www.phex.org/mambo/ another java application also doesn't work, then I can only think of the drastic step of reinstalling the system.

What if i uninstalled and reinstalled java ?
