G5 Limewire Crashing Been using Limewire on my G4 running Tiger, with no problems. Recently bought a G5 system and the installation of Limewire crashes. Am not using the new QuickTime version, but kept the older version 7.0.1. Reinstalled Java, repaired permissions under a safe startup. Still no luck. Having a similar problem with Adobe CS2 Photoshop and Illustrator, but not InDesign (works fine). Any ideas? |
Some time back I also had a problem with the Adobe Suite. After updating using Version Cue 2 it seemed to fix the problem. Most specifically it started with an acrobat update which then updated other elements as there seemed to be some type of bug there. This issue was not uncommon so I found from the adobe support forums, but that's not where I found my answer. lol :D I found it by accident. As for LW, well ... get the update LW 4.10.5 as there is a an issue with the new macs. Hopefully that solves your problem. |
LOR I am using the newest Limewire 4.10.5. That doesn't seem to be helping at all. Any other suggestions. |
How long after you open LW does it crash? Do you do any searches after you open LW? How much RAM & how much spare space on your OSX partition/HDD do you have? Do you run LW from the OSX applications folder or from a different partition or HDD? Before you open LW, go to Utilities folder & open Activity Monitor. Keep track of how much ram, cpu & VM (Virtual Memory) LW uses as you do different things with LW. Tell us if you see VM increase dramatically after doing a search. |
It never actually launches. It quits while it is opening, therefore I never even get to the Search window. I run it from the applications folder. RAM is not a problem. I have twim processors with 1Gb of RAM. Activity Monitor doesn't help because the program never gets that far to show anything. |
As I suggested in my pm to you, try creating a new user account & logging in thus & installing LW there & see if you have the same problems in the virgin user account. |
