Limewire is running on Apple's fairly ancient version of Java, which AFAIK does fine on even non-PPC Macs, so that isn't the problem. I have no idea why you can't command click to get the contextual menus, unless you are holding the mouse button down too long.

Control+click PLEASE!!!
 
Could you please change Command+click to Control+click please?!

On the Macintosh platform, Control+click is the standard key combination to bring up contextual menus.

Had I not stumbled upon this thread, I doubt I'd ever have discovered that (and no I'm not a moron).

If there's no difference in the LW source code, why am I unable to scroll with my scrollwheel mouse in Limewire (2.4.4) for OS X? Perhaps it's Apple's implementation of Java?

"EUREKA" thats it "unless you are holding the mouse button down TOOOOOOO long"
Playing with that idea of yours, I have now found the contextual menu for search window column options
AND the "repeat search".......Thank you

In defense, because LW reacts so slowly to mouse clicks on this old Performa (160 MHz)(?)
I am in the habit of holding down the mouse button while waiting for LW to react.
And, LW 2.4.x Pro is the only program I use which requires a work-a-round for a PeeCee "right click".

I'd feel really stupid except I know of several other Mac/LW users who thought that
access to the IP addresses was a lost feature to the Mac version of LW 2.4.x

Again, THANK YOU Freiluft!

PS What's AFAIK?

Internet slang for "as far as I know". A Java app. is -- well, mushy, and if you have another program open, it will react even more slowly (esp. with that clunky old processor :) ). But the command+click does have to be rather speedy or the contextual menu won't show up.
