recently upgraded - now gutted ;-(
 

I purchase Limewire Pro last year and was very happy with it.

I sadly made the mistake of downloading the demo of the new version and I have to say I loathe it!
What has happened!? ;-(

Im kicking myself now because my original Limewire Pro 3.8.6. has now been "corrupted" by downloading the newer demo version and I cannot seem to reverse the situation.

When searching previously on the left the results of each search would be broken down by artist, album and type this very useful facility is now GONE. In addition when one had clicked to download on a file in the search list - a folder would show IN the search list to show that that particular item was in the download list - this facility is now GONE.

As far as I can see there are NO additional features only less.
Has anyone any ideas why this great product has become less useful and user friendly?
And secondly is there any way I can revert my product back to the original 3.8.6.?

It looks like you downgraded.

None of the features you mentioned have been removed. In fact, some of the features you mentioned weren't in 3.8.6 at all.

The features I mentioned most certainly WERE there in my 3.8.6. version I am defintely not mistaken I used it LOADS and I am not lying!

I also had an all green 'skin' theme which I can no longer access either.

I am and was running it on Mac OS X.

You may try going to Tools -> Options and clicking 'Revert to Default'.

Also make sure that you download the absolute newest version from www.limewire.com -- if you download it from any other site, we cannot guarantee what you'll receive.

Don't know if this is any help but might help fix up any confusion with what the genuine LW has offered over time: http://www.limewire.com/english/cont..._history.shtml

UnhappyUnreg ;-( So Check the dates of the versions so yo ucan be sure you purchased the genuine LW version ... etc.
