hi
i have the same problem and i have verizon too. When im actually able to get the file to download (mostly it either takes forever or never begins to download because almost every file i try to download it will either say needs more sources or finding 300 sources and then say awaiting sources)

I bought limewire pro, thinking it would be beter than basic but nope, same thing.

Oh and i have the turbo speed connection and the download speed at the max i have seen so far is line 200 kbs and on averge like 20 or mabey a little less kbs, actuall say it say 8kbs and it would have taken like 16 days to download, its ridiculous. Even for a simple song. I changed the firewall setting in my control panel to allow limewire but ton lime wire it still shows that picture of a firewall.

I thought it was a problem with the 4.13 beta so i uninstalled it and installed 4.12 but now when i open up lime wire its changes the splash screen from the 4.12 to the beta version,which i find odd when i thought i deleted everything from lime wire before installing 4.12

my pc spec (off the top of my head, lol)
um..
amd 64 athlon 3500+
windows vista home premium
1 gb ram
512 mb ati x1800xt
audigy 4 sound blaster
..thats all i can remember now, let me know if you need any more info.

Hi Hunter.

Once you have downloaded & used 4.13, you will have to do a search on your computer and delete all Limewire files including Prefetch files, Then you can use
an older version again.

Follow these instructions exactly.
So, you need to Go, Start/All Programs/LimeWire n Uninstall all L/W versions.
Do Not Uninstall From Change or Remove Programs.
Re BOOT Your computer NOW.

Now Go to, Start/Search/click on all files n folders/more advanced options/
& make sure, case sensitive, is not ticked. (all other boxes should be ticked)
Now!!, Put limewire in box, (all or part of file name) & click search.
Delete everything found, including Prefetch folder, (I mean everything)

Re BOOT Your computer NOW.

Now!! Use this link to download latest L/W version using the off line installer
LimeWire
If you need help, Shout, If it fixed your problem or not, Feedback helps others.
Peace

thanks, that worked but the now when i try to download a song it stays a connecting forever or it will stay at awaiting sources or needs more sources. I when i had basic this problem would happen alot but i was still able to download some stuff. Now i cant download almost nothing.

It could be the License warning thing.
Just have a look,
Go, Tools/Options/Searching/Basic, it says, "Show License Warning"
Untick the box if you don't want to filter out copyright Files in search results.

This option is enabled at setup, The choice is your decision.
Do a test to see if search results improve.
You can reverse this change at any time, the choice is yours.

P.S. A file that requires a license, is protected so if you obtain a license, that file cannot be shared.
So don't put those files in your shared folder.
That will cause more frustration to others as they play only silence.

Peace.
