Okay whenever i open limewire it stays open for a little bit and then freezes after about 15 seconds and closes. I have Quicktime 7.1.2 Pro. And I got Limewire pro but it will not stay open. I have OSX 10.4.7 on a PowerBook G4. Please help me out here

1. Have you tried a SAFE Boot & repaired permissions? SAFE Boot & Repair Permissions or Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
2. How much ram & spare HDD space do you have on your system drive?
3. Which OSX version are you using? (find out under the apple icon at top left of menu bar, then choose About This Mac. And what processor speed do you have?
4. How long have you been using LW?
5. Which version of LW are you running?
6. If you have a lot of incomplete files, try Tip: Purge the Downloads Queue!
7. Go to your system folder, Library > Logs > CrashReporter & find a listing for LW & open it. Tell us what it says.

1. Try doing a safe boot (hold down the SHIFT key whilst restarting until you see the option for a safe boot.) Once started up, go to Utilities folder & open Disk Utility & repair permissions. The reboot normally. Try opening LW again.

2. Can you open up a limewire crash log & post some of the details here. Just one of the crash report paragraphs should be fine. If the username account is listed, edit it out before you post it.
