limewire on a G5
 

Just wondering if those lucky people here that have a G5 if there having problems with the new limewire. does it run terribly terribly slow (like my one does) or does it fly along and never ever crashes. Just curious.

Its Still F@@*!$g Crashing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Hi and welcome to Gnutella forums
No problem at all but I close&restart LW every hour
Could you try to repair permissions on your drive through DU ?
And by the way, which OS do your run ?

LW on G5
 

I would recommend installing Java 1.5 & forcing LW to use Java 1.5
1. Java 1.5 release 3, & also 2. Setting up Java 1.5

i have a power mac G5 version 10.4.6 with tiger, i have java 1.5. i deleted quick time from my computer and still limewire quits after a few seconds from starting. can someone tell me what options do i have im going crazy please help me im begging

recon009 , we need more info.

Could you open the Console (in Applications/Utilities folder), and watch what errors it gives when you try to open LimeWire?

That will give us more to go on.

Mac OS X Version 10.4.6 (Build 8I127)

stief thanks for your answer im very sory i took so long to answer. i copy and pasted the entire console eror message .

Hi recon

That log is quite useful, but the indications don't look good.I'm no expert, but have been told that bus errors usually mean hardware problems, especially bad RAM

Did your machine come with the Apple Hardware Test CD? Although it doesn't catch everything, there is a RAM test you can run from it.

I'm not sure where else you can go to get your RAM checked. If you find a good RAM checker, (or links) let us know.
