Lord of the Rings:
You say: "(...) normally you will find the 'Older Versions' link on the right-side of the normal LW download page. It's on the left-side of the page for Pro users' personal download page."
I can't find this link... Obviously if I could keep my Pro I would prefer that...

Did you check your email account for email from LW support ... or go to the Support page & enter your email address. ;)

Hi Lord, Yr advice sounds like just what I need. I have the same issue. Mac OS X 10.4.11 and updated to LW 5 but no good on my machine. Downloaded then tried in stall LW 4.18 but won't install, probably due to need to remove the LW 5 as you say.

My question; how to remove the LW 5 from the system?

Presumably then I can install the 4.18?

Did you write earlier that yr in Victoria, Australia? Shocking news about the fires; it's getting lots of attention and concern here in Europe.

Thanks

1. Go to your Mac OSX drive, open it up. Open Library folder, then Receipts folder, find Install LimeWire.pkg & trash it. Example of where to find it here: Receipts folder sample image

2. Find LW 4.18 here: Older Versions for LimeWire & download the version for OSX 10.4 :) Install this version. With the newer version Receipt you would not be able to install the older LW so it needs to be removed first. ;)

(b) I gave the direct link above, but normally you will find the 'Older Versions' link on the right-side of the normal LW download page. It's on the left-side of the page for Pro users' personal download page.

Remove the Instal Limewire.pkg from Receipts folder, found in system drive > Library > Receipts; sample image: Receipts folder sample image

Yes, around 200 lives lost in the fires. :(

I got back from a holiday in Thailand, but it was hotter here, 40-45 C / 105-110+ F for over a week. It was at the end of this period that the bushfires started.

thanks lord, it worked a treat once I got to the correct folder to delete

hope it cools down soon down there; it's extraordinary!
