Default Limewire Doesn't Work Anymore On My Mac !!!

Hi guys, I recently joined this forum and really need help !!

A couple of months ago I got a new Mac and I downloaded LimeWire (5.1.1), everything worked quite well until a few days ago when LM just frozed up.

Now when I click on the LM icon nothing happens... I tried to remove the application from my Mac and installed a new version but it didn't work.

I think it is important to mention that I have downloaded every single apple software update available, would it be possible that one of these updates blocked LimeWire? If not, please let me know...

Chapino.

Your Pro benefits need to be current. If your Pro benefits have expired (ie you're not eligible for free support or updates) then you'll have to use the basic version unless you buy Pro again.

If your Pro benefits are current, use your personal download link.
On the Pro download page, you'll see Pro Beta Releases. If you haven't bookmarked your personal download link, go back to the original email that you recieved from LimeWire, after buying Pro... that will have a link
And if you haven't saved that email, go here & enter the email address that you used to buy Pro: LimeWire PRO Lookup - Lime Wire

To simply show where to find the Beta link on the Pro page: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/345055-post6.html

However, LW were fast to react to the Java issue & LW 5.14 has been released which now fixes the problem. But you may prefer continuing to use the Beta in meantime since it has some nice improvements.

That didn't work for me, it's doing the exact same thing. Is it possible that the new version isn't really updating? It feels like even when I download the new version, whenever I click on Limewire the old version is all I'm dealing with. Anyone else have this problem?

You are using LW 5.1.3 right? Download either the 5.1.4 update or the beta version & it should work again.
