LimeWire 4.12.11 FLASHES A LOT!!!
 
:blink: Eventually I'll be stuck looking like this because my LimeWire 4.12.11 continuously flashes as if wanting to give me a seizure!! Throughout my entire use of LimeWire throughout the day, the screen keeps on flickering and I don't know why. I've tried to restart the computer, tried to exit LimeWire and re-enter; although, nothing works. :eek: Can't be my computer: it's a week new. Could it be the LimeWire version? or the fact that I set LimeWire to automatically load each time I start the computer? So maybe it's constantly trying to open a new screen from time to time?

I'm all out of breath for this and Need Answers SOON. Please Help me. I'm drowning out of luck.

Here Give us some System details Please.

System details - help us to help you

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Recently there's been a problem with people not providing enough details about their setup - despite being asked again & again.

So let's make it easy for everyone...the details that we need if we're going to be able to help with complex problems are:


1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)?
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?

http://www.gnutellaforums.com/attach...1&d=1158099342


These are all contained within the sticky Connection problems? Check here first! but possibly some people are getting a bit confused or lost when we direct them to this sticky & ask them to provide their details.

This information can be vital
For instance, some ISPs are known for blocking p2p/throttling bandwidth, some connection devices are known for being unreliable in certain situations.

So please, help us to help you & provide as much info as you can.
If you're new to LW or new to computers & aren't sure how to answer some questions, or don't know what an ISP or router is - just say so. Nobody's going to yell at you:wink:
Even if you can't answer all the questions in one go...don't worry. Do the best you can & we'll take it from there.

I am having difficulties too !
 
Hi !
This is my first post, so please bear with me as I attempt to clarify this question.

I am having the opposite problem, everything inside the LimeWire Window disappears, when I scroll using my mouse or trackpad, however I do believe it is a Java related conflict, because it happens with both OSs and on three different Machines.

LimeWire 4.12.11 Pro
Java 1.4.1-01
(If you need more info it is in my signature)

I googled and found this:

LimeWire » Checking Your LimeWire and Java Versions

But it doesn't say which versions of Java are compatible with which versions of LimeWire ! And personally I find OpenSource equally baffling.

Try the one in this post:

In the future, you may want to start your own thread (especially since your problem is not the same). You'll be more likely to get an expedient answer.

Good Luck :Smilywais:
