Hi there.

Same application failing to start up problem, with icon bouncing on dock...

Recently updated panther 10.3.1 to 10.3.4.

On attempting to start limewire Pro, console outputs:

dyld: /Applications/LimeWire/LimeWire.app/Contents/MacOS/LimeWire can't open library: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/A/JavaVM (Permission denied, errno = 13

Checked the application's info (apple+i) and my permissions look fine (read+write).

Does anyone have any clues on this.

Am currently downloading the apple update.

----------

G4 1.4Mhz CPU
Cable 600kbps
Limewire Pro 4.0.7

For any Mac OSX users out there, if the earlier points made by sberlin don't solve things, try one of the suggestions on the following thread: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=26699

These are problem solving methods for OSX, at least one of them will work.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't report your console results if they don't do as sberlin said they should!

[I'd be happy to receive private message from Moderators if you have any fuzzy thoughts about this.]

May I suggest you uninstall & reinstall LW. You're not the only person this has happened to. If that doesn't work see this thread.

Unhappy

I have Mac OS X 10.3.6, I tried to use limewire and it would bounce in the dock and disappear. I have updated mac OS X sice the last time I used Limewire.I installed Limewire again (version 4.2.2) and it kept doing the same thing. I tried altering the info.plist file as it had been posted in this forum, but I found no such line, so I couldn't change it. Can someone please help me???

I don't suppose you had a look at any of my links in this thread? lol By the way OS 10.3.6 has bugs & has caused numerous people problems. Have a look for a thread called OS 10.3.6 It might be in the OSX installation problems section. With your issue though. I'd at least suggest you do a SAFE start & Repair permissions & try again. Install Standalone Java may help.

The best way, if you still have the OS X installation CDs is to pop the first CD in and navigate to:
Mac OS X Install Disc 1 -> System -> Installation -> Packages -> BSD.pkg
and double-click to install that package.
Done. Didn't solve the situation.

Alternatively, you can go to /Applications/LimeWire, ctrl-click on the LimeWire application, choose 'Show Package Contents', open on the 'Contents' folders, ctrl-click on the 'Info.plist' file, choose 'Open With', choose 'Other', scroll down on the right and choose 'TextEdit". Within TextEdit, find the line that reads "<string>prelude</string>" and change it to "<string>LimeWire</string>". Save the file, close TextEdit.
Done. My copy of Info.plist already says "<string>LimeWire</string>". I found no such line that states "<string>prelude</string>".

All of this hasn't solved the problem, Limewire is still dying on take off where before (on my old hard drive) it worked just fine.

This is what I get when I option click Limewire in the dock



The system is as up to date as it can be. On this machine I can only run up to 10.2.8 (G3 beige 400 MHz)

It did run before. I used it many times on this machine.

Java 1.41 was installed by the software updater.
