Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

I have not upgraded to Lion yet. Even though Lion is so cheap, the local reviews of people who had tried it was poor. Plus I am not keen on losing Rosetta which allows programs designed to run on PowerPC processors, to run on later OSX versions such as intel macs. Lion dropped the option for Rosetta. Thus I'd lose the ability to use several programs.

Are you booted into 32 or 64 bit OSX?

Here's one thing to try, Get Information for LimeWire (command i), check the option for running in 32 bit. I know my LW only runs properly on my Snow Leopard in this mode. Else like you, it crashes soon after opening.
Else if it is already checked, try unchecking the 32 bit option.

I notice a part of the error refers to Carbon. I didn't think Lion supported Carbon now. I am not too bright sometimes lol.

Have you checked for Java updates? One thought is you have upgraded Lion overtop of an earlier OSX. LW may run properly if on a fresh Lion installation with no prior OSX installation history.

Another thing to try is to do a SAFE boot (ie: hold down shift key as you boot until you see the apple face), then use Disk Utility to repair permissions. This is recommended after any OSX updates (or adobe for that matter.) . (On that topic, I hate Micro$oft & Adobe installing their junk all over the system.)

Just figured it out... Upgrading to Lion didn't have anything to do with it... it was upgrading my wireless keyboard (which I've regretted buying for quite sometime now lol) after installing Lion that started this. I used a wired keyboard (an ugly black one) and worked just fine. I found it really funny Limewire would only crash after I typed anything in the search box so I experimented with copying and pasting via mouse and worked like a charm. So... I still want to use my Mac wireless keyboard but I'm going to need to downgrade... I think... so I'm going to google on how to do so lol...

Thanks for letting us know what happened (& that LW is working ok otherwise.) I bought a wireless keyboard & mouse with my mac, I use neither, I dislike them. The bluetooth card on my mac might be buggy. I've read many reports about similar issues with continually losing connection with mouse or keyboard. Wired is safe for me.

Black keyboard, does not sound like a mac brand. Sounds like a 3rd party one.

I want to get a new keyboard, but Mac online are fast to remove older models, the newer one designed for use with Lion. I don't need all that connect online stuff or whiz bang F key options. I like what I have, don't wish to lose those button abilities for sound, monitor & disk tray or hide all to show desktop. I spilt water on my keyboard some days back, now my control & shift-lock keys don't work, just as well my keyboard has dual keys for control.

I think that the developers of Limewire Pirate Edition are not the ones responsible for developing the original LimeWire, and also I think that the Pirate Edition will have only the faintest shadow of the original limewire.
