Help Unable to Enable Lime wire Hi guys, I have been using limewire for 6 months and it is great i have a problem now last week when getting into limewire the search wouldn't show any results. looking at the top of the tool bar it states enabling open information sharing, i have had messages stating my connection wasn't complete that my firewall may need to be changed. I have gone through the help section, checked my internet connection, turned my firewall off totally, re downloaded the new version of lime wire and still nothing, could someone please help me.. Thanking you in advance. Rambo17 |

Go through this, double check that your firewall's configured properly & read the info about internal firewalls within routers & modems... if your device has one, there's a lot of info about enabling UPnP or port forwarding to get around the problem Connection problems? Check here first! Has anything changed with your ISP lately? Do this test & see if it works http://www3.limewire.com:6346 What are your details? OS(Win XP etc) LW & Java version (help > about LW & you'll see) Firewall you're using Modem/router brand & model ISP Connection type (DSL etc) Where you connect from (home, school etc) Are you sharing a connection with other computers Is this your first try with LW |

Same problem, only worse I had the same problem, tried to re-install Limewire, got the basic version, not the Pro I had previously and now Limewire says I never bought the Pro version. I still have the Paypal receipt. Is this some kind of Limewire rip-off? What do I do to get my Pro version back without paying for something that was paid for in perpetuity once before? |

Did you buy Pro from www.limewire.com ? Your payment of $18.88 covers you for 6 months of updates & email support. You only pay once for the Pro versions that you use during the 6 months but it's your responsibility to back up the installers so that you can keep on using those versions of Pro. If you paid more than 6 months ago, your email address won't be in the database any more. If you bought from another site, LW won't ever recognise your email address. |
