Wink How do I connect to Limewire?

I downloaded Limewire last night and once I did that I tried a search. It said that it may not show many results as I am still connecting to Limewire. I left my computer on all last night and still have not connected yet. Is there any way that I can do this or how long does it normally take?

Cheers

Well, I'm not the Administrator here - he's the cute one ! - but maybe this will help you !

Click on this link > If LimeWire Will Not Load

and follow the instructions exactly.

This may also be of interest > Fixes For Limewire When LW Isn't Operating As It Should

Hope it all helps you...

Let us know how you get on, OK ?


btw - In future, be sure to always come here to the forums to check on any update info re: Lifewire updates. Do this BEFORE you download or try to install any updates from LW.

See the post above about uninstalling and reinstalling Limewire after updating (You probably want to look at the dark blue one first)...

And, if you need help with connection problems, please do this...
