Default limewire problems with Mac

I have just installed Limewire and everything seems to work except I cannot launch audio files when I double click. Also when I try to change my preferences, for example I am on a Modem and when I change the default setting from Cable/DSL to Modem it want save it.

Help,

I have the same problem--everything works fine except the Options. When I click on Apply or Okay the button dims but the window stays open. The only way it will close is when I click Cancel or the close box.

I found it too annoying so I went back to LW 1.4 which works flawlessly. I tried everything to get 1.6 to work right with no success.

I am running OS 9.0.4, java extensions for 2.2.5, iBook 300 with 64 megs of ram.

good luck

Default continuing problems with Limewire and Mac

Where can I find Version 1.4 to download? All I have been able to find is the latest version. I reinstalled the newest version and I was able to get a complete mp3 file, but I still cannot get it to play. Any suggestions? I am using a 333mhz G3 IMac with 96megs of RAM. My mp3 player is Soundjam plus 2.5.

Even after you've completely downloaded the mp3 you still can't play it? Are you trying to play it through LW or from the desktop? Try dragging the mp3 onto SoundJam to force it to open the file. Or launch SJ and choose the Open command and select your mp3. I use iTunes and it works fine, I can just go to the Library tab in LimeWire and double-click on a song and iTunes automatically launches and starts playing. If you go into the Incomplete folder under the Library tab you can also play the songs that are currently downloading before they're even finished.

Oh yeah, here's 1.4 for you.

As I said--it works better for me than 1.6 so I hope it solves your problems. Also, uninstall 1.6 before you install 1.4.


good luck
