Default Re: LimeWire Bounces In Dock and Disappears? Look Here!

The best way, if you still have the OS X installation CDs is to pop the first CD in and navigate to:
Mac OS X Install Disc 1 -> System -> Installation -> Packages -> BSD.pkg
and double-click to install that package.
Done. Didn't solve the situation.

Alternatively, you can go to /Applications/LimeWire, ctrl-click on the LimeWire application, choose 'Show Package Contents', open on the 'Contents' folders, ctrl-click on the 'Info.plist' file, choose 'Open With', choose 'Other', scroll down on the right and choose 'TextEdit". Within TextEdit, find the line that reads "<string>prelude</string>" and change it to "<string>LimeWire</string>". Save the file, close TextEdit.
Done. My copy of Info.plist already says "<string>LimeWire</string>". I found no such line that states "<string>prelude</string>".

All of this hasn't solved the problem, Limewire is still dying on take off where before (on my old hard drive) it worked just fine.

This is what I get when I option click Limewire in the dock



The system is as up to date as it can be. On this machine I can only run up to 10.2.8 (G3 beige 400 MHz)

It did run before. I used it many times on this machine.

Java 1.41 was installed by the software updater.
