LimeWire Won't Quit!

flameboy6600 · #1 (**permalink**) November 26th, 2003

Hi, I have been recently using Lime Wire Beta for the Mac os x and well... whenever I try to quit from LimeWire it minimizes to the dock instead. Every other part of the program works fine and I can't figure out why it does this? Can anyone help me?

Like pretty much every other OSX program, you must hit Apple-Q or choose 'Quit' from the LimeWire menu to close it.

and if that fails force it to quit

apple+option+esc

I did try apple-q and quit from the apple menu but it minimizes limewire when i do that. The only way to quit limeWire is to force quit it and I was wondering if there is a way to fix that.

Go to the LimeWire menu, choose Preferences and then select 'Shutdown' from the left. Make sure that 'Shutdown Immediately' is chosen. If 'Shutdown after Transfers' is chosen then LimeWire will not close until all downloads and uploads have completed.
