Limewire could not create a temporary preferencs dictionary.
This is generally caused by lack of permissions. please make sure that you and limewire has permission to creat files/folders on this system. How do I fix this? Thanks in advance! |

Do you have Admin. rights to that system?? If not then nothing you can do. You have to be the Administrator of the System.

A bit more info would help - e.g. what operating system, is it your machine and are you familiar with the procedure for adding your self to the administrators group/changing file permissions.
If not your system, then the last reply would apply. Nothing you can do without administrator help. |

I am using Windows Vista Home Edition. I am under the Owner admin group. I had Limewire on my computer before, but it it just stopped searching for songs. So I uninstalled it so that I could reinstall it. That was the error message that I got when I tried to reinstall it

Hm. I am not a Vista expert, but it does occur to me that your previous uninstall was not complete and you may have to manually clear some remaining bits. A mail to limewire support would probably advise.
Regarding the inabillity to connect, this is far more likely to be an issue with either a firewall block, or your ISP has started peer to peer blocking. There is an excellent thread concerning this elsewhere in the forum, with some possible workarounds. |

Have a look in C\Program files\Limewire & delete all files plus the Limewire directory. You could also run a search for "Lime".
You may find this of help as well: CCleaner - Download I came across this in another thread - it is one of the most usefull bits of kit I have used. |
