Intoduction & problem with connecting Limewire 4.1.18 Hello everyone. I am new to this forum. I have Limewire 4.1.18 that I have been using for a long time. I have never had problems with getting a connection in the past. I use Windows Vista. All of my 3,000+ songs are still in my library, but I cannot do a search because it says "still connecting". I am not as comp. savy as most on here, but I need your help. I have no idea what happened, because I have never had a problem. Was wondering if something got removed by an adaware type program. So hello to my new friends here.......please help, it is greatly appreciated. I'm not worthy!! :aweof: |
Try replacing the gnutella.net file; listed at bottom of this post If LW 4 Will Not Connect (click on the blue link) |
Unable to connect LW 4.1.18 Thanks for your support. It worked, and I am up and running again. Have a great day and thank you for taking the time to assist me.:xirokrotima: |
Mine did not work because I had 2 firewalls running and it would not allow it through. I had to go in and select Limewire to be allowed through. |
So it's ok now? Yes .. with most p2p sharing programs, only one firewall should be used. And for that matter, often one firewall clashes with another resulting in less security, not more. ;) And making an exception for LW in the firewall you decide to use is a must. :) |
Well, it is not working again....ugh. It was working fine last night after I shut off the one firewall I know of and removed other software that essentially does the same. I actually have the first of the bars in connected on, but it says "still connecting" if I try to search. Any other ideas? If I were to upgrade to the current LW 5 that is available will that wipe out my 4000 songs. Please help.....:shoot: |
I am getting frustrated and thinking about uninstalling LW and reinstall new, but I have a large collection of music that I want available to others...4000 songs. Any ideas. I have never had problems in two years on LW, so I am lost on what to try. Thanks. |

If you've tried all fixes & still need help, please give us your details: System details - help us to help you -> Provide these details when you post!!! Normally you shouldn't lose any saved files if you update LW. Have you changed the location for saving from LW's default (tools > options > saving will show you where files are saved)? Some people have ended up saving files to LW within Program Files - in that case saved files would be lost if LW was updated. Not a safe place at all for saving;) So just check your saving location to make sure. |
