Search question
 

I have recently uncovered a problem where when I tap enter to search for something, the keyword I entered disappeared and now search results ever come up. I've clicked all the arrows to resize the different sections and nothing ever shows up. Any fixes?

oops, sorry, I missed this thread, but this is the same problem Im having

Search Problem - Cannot type in search box - characters dissapear
 

Are you saying that whatever you type in the search box erases itself? I have no answer, but will try to describe my problem.

I'm using Win2K pro w/ Limewire 3.8.6 on a Cable connection - no firewall (router). When I type a character in the search box, cursor leaves the box - where it goes, who knows, but I have to mouseclick in the box to get back there and on and on. If I do this enough times in rapid succession, I can eventually complete an entire keyword, then click back and quickly press enter to get the search started. Very frustrating.

I've tried restarting Limewire, restarting the system and disabling auto-complete, then re-enabling it with no success. Have not tried a re-install and am hesitant because I've compiled a huge que of files I need. (tuff, huh?).

Any ideas from the seasoned Limewire pros?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

MY best advice is to try the latest beta version of LimeWire 3.92 which is available to Pro users on their pro download page and free users at www.limewire.com. The entire search input scheme has changed since the 3.86 version.

I managed to solve the problem by changing the input source (the little flag in the top right-hand corner of your desktop). Mine was set to US International - it has all the accents - and I changed it back to US. It worked like a charm.

Hope this helps.

hmmm....I bet if you had your keyboard (or perhaps OS setting) set to US international it would have worked
