![]() I don't know if this is an installation problem or not, but I think this is the right place for it. I've downloaded Limewire repeat times tonight. After every attempt, when I exit the installation after I finish downloading, the program does not run. I have "Run LimeWire" selected at the end, and I recieve no action. Nothing happens. When I try going to the program to try and manually start it, nothing happens. Is there a problem with the installation? Or is there somewhere I can find the answer to this? |

![]() Uninstall both LW & Java & reinstall both. For LW go to Start menu>Programs>LW & choose uninstall. For Java choose remove from the Add/Remove Programs Control panel. Then downld both LW & Java & save both installers to your computer (DON'T install over the net!!!) Then install Java 1st. Then LW. For Java try a link from here: Fixes for Limewire It might also be worth deleting your LW preferences folder whilst LW is closed before re-installing LW. ![]() |

![]() I used limewire pro and somehow it stopped working .. everytime i clicked on it .. hourglass for few seconds and then nothing. the problem started when I installed anothere P2P program (emule) and it didn't matter how many times i installed limewire.. same problem.. (now the older version 4.0.1 worked great).. Here is the soultion per last post from Lord of Rings.. You really need to follow step by step. Unistall both Jave and limewire. download java (1.4) and Limewire (basic). Don't try to insatll from a limewire that you might have downloaded from a p2P. Also if you are running Norton.. remove all the limewire permission. Now Install Jave and then Limewire (basic) .. wala .. it works.. now if you want to upgrade to Pro that u might have .. you can do so.. any error reporting just ignore (few Times for me). Now Limewire is back on.. i like to thank "Lord of Rings) |

![]() OK, uninstalled both lw and java per post, downloaded both installers to disk , installed java then lw, and as soon as i try to open lw, it crashes, asking if i want to send error report. I tried opening port 6346, but that didn't work. Does my comp just not want to run lw? |
