Froggie is flying high
Default LimeWire messes up my sound....

Hi
Limewire keeps killing my system sounds whenever I launch another program, esp. if it's a sound prog like iTunes. My system sounds just up and quit. However, if I quit all the other open apps my sound comes back. How can I fix it? I'm currently running OSX 10.3.4
any help would be appreciated
It otherwise works fine. I'm using the latest free version of Limewire.

That's an odd behaviour. Can you tell us more about your machine; how much RAM, cpu speed, model, does it only happen with LW? It sounds like a ram/cpu issue but unless we know more!? Is iTunes set as your LW player?
I forgot to ask, have you tried re-opening/restart playing iTunes after LW has opened?

hi
It's an 800MHz G4 eMac with 640MB Ram.
Yeah, I tried to close iTunes and bring it up again, but that didn't help. I did have iTunes as my LW player, but since I'm having this trouble I turned that off. I only have this trouble with LW.

I don't think I have any answers for you unless somebody else on the forum can add anything. Perhaps try stopping iTunes before you open LW & re-open it after. Which version LW do you have? Sorry!
I know just a little abou iMacs but nothing about eMacs. The early-mid history iMacs didn't have much in the way of graphic card support, meaning much of the sudden stress & strain of some apps fell directly upon the RAM & CPU. This could be an issue you might have to live with, but try to find a way to accomodate both somehow.
