There's lots of other mac versions you can try http://www.gnutellaforums.com/mac-os...link-here.html but you will need to use File_Girl's fix for the connection. Will also receive the legal notice on main window, I just ignore it.

Pirate version runs fine on my mac using Snow Leopard. Pirate version is only compatible with Snow Leopard OSX 10.6 .. or those running intel macs with Leopard OSX 10.5.
If you have OSX 10.4 or earlier, then you are restricted to LW 4. If you have Leopard OSX 10.5 but do not have an intel mac computer, you are also restricted to LW version 4.

Snow Leo on Intel Mac here. It had the last official release of limewire installed. I uninstalled it and removed receipts and preferences which might remember that install. Could not find any further file, where information about that install is stored. Nevertheless, the installer still tells something like „On your volume had already been installed a newer version, you cannot install this one.” - Well, and after loading the installer to the USB-stick: The installer installs on the stick, but starting limewire produces a limewire sign showing up for a moment in the dock and disappears. No further positive effect. Any advice? Or in such case stay cool and just use another client for a while?

Sounds like you still have a version of LW installed on your computer. Go to applications folder using the Go menu, find LW & send to trash & empty. Try installing again.

I received a message about newer version when i installed LPE, but I just clicked yes to ok to install anyway. It runs fine.

I had removed anything reachable of the old limewire installation, but can't find the file still initiating the message about „a newer client” already installed. Old McFreak might share an enlightenment about that with me.

However, i needed to get clear, whether a happy pirate is pulling my legs. A clean sys install on a remote volume, booting there, and starting the client gave the answer: It's working like a charm! Fine piece of software! Thanks for that one folks!

I'll try to return something through the forums and write along the gnutella project at another place in cyberspace ...

Words cannot express my gratitude for the pirate edition. Let's keep it free for all to enjoy.

Hey

Robert here from Evolution Reloaded.

I PM'd you, meta, don't know if it went through or not because it's not in my sent box.

But you're going to want to update the mirrors from evolutionreloaded. The website closed down and I moved to a different web server with uncapped speeds so if your home connection is 100mbps, the download will be pretty much instant.

Windows: http://www.reloaded-designs.com/down...ateEdition.exe

Mac: http://www.reloaded-designs.com/down...ateEdition.dmg

Linux: http://www.reloaded-designs.com/down...ateEdition.deb

I also setup a download page with my own custom made logo and description
Downloads - Reloaded Designs

The old mirrors should be completely down in about 3 days, if not, they'll be up until the end of the month.

Keep up the ness

You sound like a Mac OSX user. Presently both the above & the links on the first page are still working.

Normally as soon as you have finished downloading the DMG file will automatically open (mount on the desktop). Double-click the installer inside of it. Sometimes the installer is slow to open.

To use this version of LimeWire, you must be using OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard, OR using an intel computer & at least OSX 10.5 Leopard.
