![]() Okay I'm having this same problem and I've been using Limewire for years w/o much issue. Here's the following info and then I'll try and provide further detail on the issue I'm experiencing 1. OS version? XP Pro 64bit 2. What firewalls you have? Just Windows Firewall 3. How much ram?3gigs 4. Hard Disk space available? ~200gigs on the C drive 5. Connection type? cable 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? couldn't tell you I just moved into a new place and neither of the house mates who were here know the user name or pwd to the router 7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? house 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? Limewire 4.18.4, Java 1.6.0_02 9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Comcast I believe 10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? I receive the your test worked message 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. there are two other computers on this router I assume(one for each of the other housemates) 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. new problem with experienced user. 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? yes but I've made sure Limewire is in the allowed applications list and what not. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/attach...1&d=1158099342 14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? I hope so, I can't log in to find out. 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? McAfee Virus Scan Enterprise 16. What country are you living in? USA Alright, the issue is that I launch limewire, I get fully connected to the network, do a search for a song and receive multiple hits. I pick one, any one(yes even the one with low user counts) it pops up on the downloading list below the search window. From now on the file remains on Connecting and the connecting tried x out of y message and eventually displays "Need more sources". I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling I've added the hostile host list to the Limewire folder in Application Data, I've used the connection tab to remove users and try to grab new ones. I've done this and still can;t get any file to download, I believe I originally even tried to get some small .doc to download once I noticed the issue and still nothing. Aside from the router having UPnP disabled or something, which I hope it isn't, I can't fix it. Last edited by SWORDOTIS; September 11th, 2007 at 03:35 PM. |

![]() I'm having the same problem too. I installed Limewire 4.14.8 and it worked fine for several hours. I left my computer then when I got back, all downloads has stopped and I kept getting the same message (Connecting, Host Tried, Need More Sources) when I retried. Limewire can still search and upload, but seems like it can't download. I have another PC with Limewire 4.12, and it works normally. Maybe some bug in 4.14.8? |

![]() Sounds like the 4.14 is a bit buggy... Maybe the hosts that you where downloading from went offline...Try canceling the files and then resume them from your incomplete folder... You could also try connecting to some new ultrapeers... Go to your Connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it... Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more... (try to take note of the hosts IP numbers if the same ones keep re-appearing add them to your host filter...) ![]() Tools > Options > Filters and select the Host Filter and add these IP's into it and select apply... Also this hostile list is very handy...It only works for the 4.13 and above versions of limewire... http://www.gnutellaforums.com/open-d...-limewire.html
