Not sure what you mean. What sequence? If you mean that LW starts to load (ie muddling mint, scouring NYC for limes, squeezing limes) & then shuts down - try the advice here: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/331559-post2.html

If that's not your problem, could you explain a bit more?

Thanks, that's exactly what I mean, I'll try the link and see what happens....

Hello L.O.T.R.

I previously had 4.18. It worked fine for quite some some time. Then I started having problems when I would open the program. The windows would be see through on start up. The windows that I am referring to are the main Limewire window and the small ones asking me if I want to upgrade and such. If I click on them or drag over them they some times will appear. At the bottom of my screen on the task bar, limewire appears in a white box and says JAVA instead of limewire. Once I click on it to minimize the window and again to maximixe it, it will then go from a transparent window to a the normal Limewire screen. Even the Limewire "lime" icon in the bottom right corner of my screen is invisible. It's there, but you can not see it.

I decided to upgrade to the new 5.1.2. After I downloaded it, I ran the program. It will get all the way through the greyish black limewire setup screen which says squeezing limes and so on. Once it runs the program and show a predominately white screen with two choices to pick from, IT CLOSES! It does this every single time. The Lime icon on my taskbar is again invisible but it is there. Once the program suddenly closes, I can scroll over the invisible lime icon and it will also automatically go close. I have rebooted, re-downloaded (many times), deleted all old versions of Java and even reinstalled 4.18 for it to act the same way as before.

PLEASE HELP! I've lost a ton of time and miss my Limewire!

Sorry guys! I didn't see one of the post above that had the same problem with it closing right away. I'm checking all of the recommended threads now. Thanks!

ok, tried and tried and still the same thing. As soon as Limewire opens and ask me to automatically add files to library or whatever the other choice is, it shuts down! I don't even have enough time to read what the second thing says. Any suggestions???

If you removed all versions of Java, did a registry clean, then installed the offline Java & still problems, then either a different version of Java or a setting on LW.

Have you tried (a) setting LW to run as Admin. by right-clicking the program file. (b) tried different compatibility settings depending on which windows you are using. You didn't specify. eg: right-click LW change compatibility to NT or win 2000 or XP, etc. :)

The problem 'might' also be your video card settings.

Installation issue
 

I am trying to install Limewire on my computer and about halfway through installation is says, "Could not open input for splittet files." Any suggestions?

Hi mfranson,

Have a look through the thread below - there are a couple of different things to try:)
"Could not open input file for splittet files"

Hi new to limewire problems with download
 

I just bought a new dell studio laptop with vista and i cant get limewire to download it keeps coming up with an error that says c:\programfiles(x86)\limewire\execnowindow.exe what does that mean and how do i get limewire to download. i love limewire have used it for years and this is really frustrating to me and i dont know what to do please help!:mad2:

my guess is that you are not actually downloading the installer, rather opening it up and trying to install directly...

DOWNLOAD the installer then use it..
