Installing Limewire on Intel-based Mac Laptop

On a side note, I have examined the package for Java 1.5 , it does NOT contain the dylib files I am looking for.

Then you may need to do an install from the initial release. Don't only look in the java package but also elsewhere Java may install its components.

I had a friend email me the java libraries from his machine and all is good now. I was missing a total of 5 files !!! Have no idea why they were missing.

LOTR, thank you very much for all your assistance.

Did all that - step-by-step. No changes. Same problem.
I even tried Limewire's Tech support (4x) - not a peep.

1. Do a reboot in safe mode & repair permissions; SAFE Boot & Repair Permissions

2. reinstall the "Offline" java version due to possibility of corrupt install. http://www.apple.com/support/downloa...ase4intel.html

3. Delete LW preferences folder found here: /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire

After buying this laptop brand-new 3 weeks ago, I'm not interesting in reinstalling.
:-)

I'll change to another P2P Client first. I've just paid so much over the years to the Limewire folks. no more - until this is corrected, or I get a reply from their Tech Support.
