Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1.

Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12.

Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Limewire with OS 10.3.8 I had the same problems as most people, but with 10.3.8, Java 1.4.2 doesn't fix it, you'll need to download Java for Panther: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/java.html Follow Stief's instructions listed above for deleting Limewire, download and install the Java for Panther, then re-install Limewire. Fixed my problems, hope that helps. Ralph  |

 After the above, LW still fails to load Hi - I'm running OSX 10.3.8 with JavaPantherUpdate 1.4.1 and did a fresh install of Limewire 4.8.1 Basic per the above instructions. Can anyone figure out what's wrong from the crash report? BTW, I had an earlier version of LW Pro (4.0.5) which did the same thing, so I replaced it with the latest version of LW Basic thinking that might cure the problem. Still got bounce and gone syndrome. Could Apple's OSX security updates have anything to do with the problem? That's the only system change between LW working and not working that I can think of.

| I can't deciphor the report for you but can make some suggestions about probable fixes. Whenever there's a new apple update there's always an influx of these types of problems. It seems to be related to updating mac os over the net. 1. SAFE Boot & Repair Permissions 2. Try this Java here: icon bouncing in Dock (click on link) This requently fixes this problem. If not a combo update will normally do it. By the way if it says your Java is already up to date then double-click the harddrive icon, open the Library, open the Receipts folder, then find the file: Java142Update2.pkg, delete it and try again. eg image: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...159#post126159 |

| "Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001) Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS" means the problem is outside LimeWire. So it's a java or an OS X problem, usuallly fixed by the safe boot first, or reinstalling java. The key information the coders need is the "Exception . . . " and then the details for the thread that crashed. I think.  |

| Still trying Thank you for your suggestions. So far, no luck. Following one of the poster's suggestions, I went back to an earlier version of Java (1.4.1) Since the problem occured with Java 1.4.2 ver.2. Below is the thread that crashed (from the crash log). As far as a conspiracy theory goes, how about the latest version of iTunes deliberately causing the problem to prevent free music downloads?

 Finally! After downloading the jum CVS build of LW and getting the same bounce and crash, I figured that my Java 1.4.1 installation might be incomplete, even though I had downloaded the installer from Apple's web site. So, I removed the version.plist file per the instructions below, and reinstalled Java. Finally, LW worked! --------------------- Repairing an Incomplete Java Installation: The problem can be corrected with a manual fix requiring an administrator-level account. From the Finder, navigate to /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Resources/ and open the folder. Move the version.plist file to the Trash. An authentication dialog may appear. Enter an administrator username and password. Confirm that the version.plist is no longer in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Resources/. Download the complete Java package from Apple's web site (not a software update) Follow the instructions of the installer. --------------------- LW jum starts and runs OK, though it resists my efforts when I try closing the LW window. I can live with that.... My question now is, do I dare try to update to the 1.4.2 Update 2 version of Java, or should I just leave well enough alone? Thank you for all your help. |

 LW is designed with Java 1.4.2 & gives better performance ... so I'd suggest it would be a good idea to update. Probably not too far in the future apple will update to Java 1.5. But who knows. lol Glad to hear you solved the problem. Stief's very good to helping to solve these types of issues! |
