Cool MAC users

Is anybody else running a Mac with Limewire?

I am having serious problems with uploading files to other Servants,

HELP I don't want to be a freeloader and a lot of Servants have tried and failed.

Pls reply if working or not!

I'm just decided to try one of these gnutella clients and I've successfully installed limewire on MacOS X. Now all I need to do is start the program. How do you do that? I'll see if I can upload anything once I get the program started.

Not sure, but your problem may be that you are clicking on the Limewire icon in the limewire folder and not the actual executable file (which doesnt look like much).

I am clicking on the Icon that looks like an extension cord. Limewire does start and run, I can dowload, but uploads don't work

I am running Limewire on my MAC(aah) for a few days now. I have downloded a half dozen files some MP3, some MPEG-1 Today for the first time I monitored a servant trying to upload one of my files. When last I looked he had attempted a dozen or so times, on the same file, and each time the best he got about 30% uploaded before failure.
I will continue to monitor and let you know.

Lightstone,
I downloaded your file. I couldnot open it. It had an .ex extension. I tried Clarisworks WP but no luck.
I renamed it to "lightstone" and put it back in my shared folder. As to uploading from me, I will be on line at least until 2100pst.
Files that were uploaded 100% by others were: Linda Ronstadt - Am I Blue.mp3 and Different Drum;...tone Poneys.mp3

Lightstone,
An unusual file would be (Ym* S*mac - Bambo.mp3); One servant tried 3 times and got 0% Another could be (B**tles - G**d Day S*nshine.mp3). Last night one servant tried 3X and got 93,92,90% before failure. My IP is 64.19X.1YY.1ZZ and I am on DSL. Bandwidth assigned to uploads is 50%
On 2/26, I had 15 attempts at upload,on 5 different files; 2 files completed after a 3 failures at 20-30% ; 3 files failed with 0%
after tries of 2X,3X and2X
On 2/27, 4 attempts on 2 files. The sucessful upload was on the first try; The 3 failures are as above.
I hope that you get Limewire going. Having another MAC(aah) using the same Client is very useful to me.

You refered to a location

Question

I'm running a 4k build of mac os x. I downloaded the limewire for os x but i don' t know what to do with the .sh file, and neither does my os, apparently. Limewire webpage says install this from a shell window and build your own desktop icon for LimeWire. How do I do that?
