thanks

I just read your other post. Wait 24 hours & try downlding the new 4.4 version. It will be released sometime Monday.

Is that 4.4 PRO? In other words was buying the program pointless or whats the deal? are the bugs getting fixed in the new version, because i just bought it today and it might be too late to do anything about getting the charges cancelled if I wait.
also the version i have right now says 4.4.0 isnt that the same thing

Do you mean nothing is happening when you double-click on the installer, or when you double-click on the LimeWire icon that the installer puts on your desktop?

Try going to C:\Program Files\LimeWire and double-clicking on "LimeWire.exe", does that work? Give it some time to start up.

Try also double-clicking on LimeWire.jar and see if that works.

Let us know how it goes.

ive tried double clicking on the exe and it did the same thing, i cant get anything ive clicked and waited 5 minutes nothing happens, ive uninstalled reinstalled several times, tried the beta version nothing
i went to add remove programs to try repair but under limewire it is listed as remove only not change remove
really want to get it working because the first time i downloaded the free version it worked, then when i went back this problem started, that why I bought it, because I loved the program, its the best one of the net that i have found, any other suggestions?

Did you try double-clicking on LimeWire.jar?

yes
 

ive tried all the double clicking i can the double clicking is not working this is not something simple, im not stupid, ive tried everything that you have recommended and more, is there anything that might be wrong in setting somewhere or something of that nature. some kind of disagreement with another program maybe anything. ive already bought this program, and charged it to my credit card and now i cant use it its pretty frusterating
thanks

Hi Anne,

Thank you for trying what was asked. However, nothing you have said up to now has indicated that you've double-clicked all the files I'd like you to double-click. In order to find a solution to your problem, we need to know exactly what is causing it to go wrong, and if you are able to open LimeWire using this alternate method, it will give us good insight into what the problem is.

The directory C:\Program Files\LimeWire should contain the one subdirectory called 'root', and a series of files. You have said you tried double-clicking on the file "LimeWire.exe" -- that one should have a lime-icon. You should also try double-clicking on a file called LimeWire.jar that has no special icon. That may start LimeWire.

Please let us know if it does.

In addition, please download the file http://limewire.org/LimeWireDebug.exe and place it in your C:\Program Files\LimeWire folder. Then start it by double-clicking. It should open a DOS console that prints out any errors with launching LimeWire. Let us know what that says.

Thanks for helping us figure out what's causing this problem.

... Err ... I was about to reply to a post Lord Of The Rings made. Is the problem you (LOTR) brought up not there any more?

hey again
 

i went into the root directory, and it had another file in it called magnet, went into that, no .jar. there was a .jar file in the limewire directory, double clicked it, nothing happenend, again. I downloaded the debug.exe, used it, the DOS window came up momentarily, then went away. Kind of like when I double click on the limewire icon and get a hourglass for a second and nothing happens. any other ideas?
thanks
