Just bought Limewire PRO cant get it tow work

also, the DOS window said nothing in it for the split second it was up on the screen

Hi Anne,

The LimeWire.jar file is under C:\Program Files\LimeWire, not under the root subdirectory. You double-clicked on that (not one of the other many .jar files) and nothing happened?

Hrmph.

Have you gone in Control Panel -> Add/Remove programs, uninstalled Java, gone to java.com & reinstalled it?

There's not much else I can do to troubleshoot this right now. We'll try to build a more debuggable version of LimeWireDebug.exe to trace exactly what's going wrong. We'll have that ready sometime late tomorrow.

Also --

Do you happen to have a file called "launch.properties" in your C:\Program Files\LimeWire directory? If so, delete it and try launching LimeWire again. If not, we'll have to wait for the newer LimeWireDebug.

yes clicked on limewire.jar, so whats the deal then, I paid for this but cant use it? I will try the java thing, havent done that, but my prospects arent high. how am i going to get this to work? and if i cant how can i make sure im not charged on my credit card for it?
thanks

You'll have to wait until normal working hours on a weekday until we can actually build an exe that can help us figure out what's causing the problem.

Until then, you can use the free version. If that isn't working, I apologize, but there's not much else I can do.

I reinstalled java and the program just worked. I dont get it but sorry to bother you all day. my comp had two types of java on it, i removed them both, downloaded JRE 1.5 and restarted the comp, them installed it them limewire just started, got the PRO version working, thanks for the help. if i can help you out with info on the problems i was having let me know
thanks

Sorry Sam. I was going to add a sample image too. lol I went to task manager & found 2 items belonging to LW in operation. One was 11 MB & I think the other was 33 MB in size. I cancelled both. Restarted Windows & this time LW started up ok & is now working ok. Sorry about that! (I installed on Drive C but I have another earlier version on Drive F. That might have been the problem! I guess I should delete the other!?!)

I noticed it has duplicated my port forwarding: ie: it has obviously detected this to be the case. But so far incoming is false. But that may be a limitation of VPC or b/c I may need to use a different port for my modem (ie:forward a separate port for windows.) They are set up as a lan (even though it's the one comp.)

I notice now that incoming is still false but I'm getting plenty of hits on my files. A couple have had 32 each & increasing. lol

Poor people! I'm getting a bit paranoid b/c I don't have protection at present.
