Up until yesterday Limewire worked perfectly. Then Bouncing icon and nothing. I have deleted Original LW including preferences and downloaded again. Same problem! Checked firewall, allowed LW.
I am beginning to wonder if I am installing LW properly? I am a new Mac user, when I install, it seems to load too quickly? Should I have to restart?
Why should it work one day then stop the next?
Is it ok to reinstall from the download icon on my desktop? Or should I delete this also when I am getting rid of all previous LW applications before downloading from LW site?
I am at a loss here can anyone help?
