I have been using limewire for years now and I have never had a prob, but now when ever I search, no search results come up, it completes the search but there are no results, it doen't matter what I type in, I had version 6.14 andthen updated to 6.18 thinking that would help but it didn't.

Just when I needed it the most lol

please help!

Ditto! I have had this same problem so often I can't count. So, usually, I uninstall and reinstall - again, and again and again. But, yeah! I search. It tells me I'm getting results, but nothing displays. WHAT UP WITH THAT!!!!!

I'm getting REALLY REALLY sick of installing uninstalling, reinstalling un, re, un, re-installing and NOW nothing happens!!

I really like Lime Wire, most of the time, but this is driving me nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi stclair55,

Did you try all of the fixes that I posted in reply to your first thread 2 weeks ago Exploding Head! (no search results displayed) ?

If people don't reply to their thread, we assume that they've either fixed the problem or decided to move on from LW. If people have problems with the fixes that we post, they need to tell us

Yeah me too. i have installed and unstalled so many times im thinking about giving up, but i heard once it works i work regret the work i went through to get it to work. and thats what im working on getting it to work. when i search the bar fills up with blue but nothing still appears to show up after unstalling and stuff....PLEASE SOMEONE HELP.....A.S.A.P

Is your LW connected properly (all green/blue connection bars)? If LW's connected, try the fixes below.

1. In LW go tools > options > searching > basic & check whether the 'show license warning' box is ticked. If it's ticked , untick it > Apply > ok...see if that makes any difference.

2. Problems with the search

3. Delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will change all of your settings within LW's options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things to the way you like them.

If LW's not connected, try the fixes here.
If LW Will Not Connect
If nothing there helps, please post back with your system details.

I Went To Tools..........[the Hole Nine Yards] Nothing Still Doesn't Work!! I Dont Have Any Old Folders Because This Is My First Time Using..

Sorry ... I don't check my emails on a regular basis. But yes! I've tried all the suggested fixes and still no results. In many cases, those are my settings and it still does't work. So guess I'll just un- and re-install. Again. I've been using LW for several years now and this has been a chronic problem. Is there a "one time" fix or not??? I love LW (read "free"), but this little glitch is very frustrating.

I just tried a fix I found from "wondering why" (And I THANK YOU!). Go to Tools>Options>Filters and select the Host Filter and enterthese IPs and then select "apply":
204.11.219.225
204.11.219.226
204.11.219.227
204.11.219.220
204.11.219.231

I did this and now have mega results.

THANK YOU "wondering why" or whoever you are!
