Which model MAC do you have? You may need to max out your RAM. In the meantime see if rebuilding your desktop helps. Doubtful with such little RAM. |
: ) Thanks for replying! That could be the prob....but it worked fine untill about 2 weeks ago...then it just stopped connecting? Is there anything I can do to get it up again? Or am I done for : ( |
Do you have Force IP checked? Something to try. Also try deleting your LW preferences folder whilst LW is CLOSED; found here Macintosh HD/System Folder/Preferences/.limewire If you put the preferences folder into List mode for viewing, you should see them at or near the top of the list. ;) You do know how to rebuild the desktop right? It's something that should be done reasonably frequently. Particularly after installing software or updates. Restarting whilst holding down the Command + Option keys : Rebuilds the Desktop file |
