can't open Limewire Need help, when I start limewire, I get a error stating "LIMEWIRE WAS UNABLE TO INITITLIZE AND START" It says the main problem is a firewall and loopback connection. I went to FAQ and it gives a way to fix it, problem is you nee to open Limewire to fix it and I cannot. I have tried everything from the firewalls to deleting and downloading 4.10 again. What can I do? PLEASE HELP |

Try the following: uninstall LW and all Java versions you've installed. Then download the JRE off-line installer of the newest Java version: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp Install this version and afterwards install LW again. Let us know if that helped to solve the problem;) |
It did not work, I did everyting you said, and still the same problem |

Can you give us a total description of your set up (just answer those questions you can answer): 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) 2. What firewalls you have? 3. How much ram? 4. Hard Disk space available? 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? 7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? 8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 9. Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)? 10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. 11. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. 12. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? |
