Hi...
Just downloaded the LW osX version, and I can't connect. I'm running through a T1 connection, and have done the telnet test--it comes back with "gnutella ok" with port 6349, but not 6346. I am at a university but am not connecting through university ethernet connection. I have also added bearshare connections to my autoconnect list. It runs through all the autoconnects at startup and then they disappear without doing anything. If I hit connect, the round circle at the bottom turns green briefly (1-2 sec.) This is my first time trying to use a program like this, so any help would be appreciated. Not to mention I'm not that great with my new ibook yet...Thanks guys.

Mary

Angry How do u get lime to work with a firewall?

I am having a **** hard time of connect. I turned off my firewall and it worked fine but then i closed out of it and then it just stoped. what the **** is goin on with this peice of ****. Hell i could make a program 100 times better than this. Morpheus is better than this hell winmx is even better. So if u r having the samw problems with limewire than i would suggest of whiching over and going to winmx spelled just like that. it is very easy to use so do what u want. But if they don't get this **** fixed then i am goin with a different provider of music. LIMEWIRE THIS GOES OUT TO YOU. YOUR PROGRAM IS A PEICE OF ****, HELL MY GRANDMOTHER COULD MAKE A BETTER ONE AND SHE IS DEAD, HELL MAYBE A 2 YEAR OLD CAN MAKE A BETTER PROGRAM THAN THIS ****.

i cant connect either. are you all fixing the problems or have you already done it? if youve done it i still cant connect. why cant this work like the other programs? this had soo much potential. if the connection issue was cool this would be a shiznit of a program.

Gentlmen,

Isn't gnutella a true P2P protocol? How then is it possible that Limewire can't connect to a gnutella hive when other gnutella clients can - even with the default gnutella.com servers listed first?

When LimeWire doesn't connect, it's usually because of your internet connection. Are you behind a firewall/router/proxy whatever? Maybe you have to open port 6347 or whatever you want to use for LimeWire...
