I had the older version of Limewire Pro for Mac and wanted to upgrade to Lime wire5, except I also had to install the Java 1.6 for Mac.
I installed both the Java 1.6 and Limewire 5 Pro but it does not open. Can anyone help? Thanks :-) |

You should not need to manually install Java 1.6, mac update should do it automatically. To see if your computer is compatible with LW 5, go to Java preferences & see if in fact Java 1.6 is installed: Setting up Java for Leopard (see 2nd image)
If no java 6 listed on your java preferences, your computer is not compatible with LW 5. LW 5 needs both OSX 10.5 or later & Java 6. And java 6 being 64-bit can only be installed on the newer intel machines. I hope you still have your LW 4 Pro installer just in case. If you need to downgrade again, you will first need to remove the instal limewire.pkg file from Receipts folder; Receipts folder sample image |
