ebene1073, please open Terminal.app enter the following command(s) (Copy & Paste):

ls -l /Library/Java/Extensions
ls -l ~/Library/Java/Extensions

Let me know what it says (ls = list i.e. it lists the directory contents).

ebene,

Please try the commands that rkapsi posted. The problem could be caused by conflicting packages, causing LimeWire to load a wrong component (and causing lots of other things to go wrong).

Thanks.

Hi ebene,

yes that are the commands. You can copy & paste them to the Terminal. The Input/Output looks like this:

Code:

Hi ebene,

uuugh this looks weird! Can't you resize it? I can't even set mine to that size. The Terminal should look like this:



Have you noticed other irregularities with your installation? There's maybe something broken. Never mind! Lets make it manually. Open a new Finder window and browse to the directory as shown on this picture (/Library/Java/Extensions)



Is the Extensions directory empty like on this picture? As next click onto the house and then Library. Is there a Java directory?

Default I am having the same problem

Hi. I've been following your thread. I started Limewire Basic this morning, as I always do with no problems. It reported some pop up window of a bug & told me to reinstall Limewire. So I did a search for Limewire on my Harddrive, trashed all remnants of it, and went online to reinstall Limewire Basic for Mac OSX. I was able to download my favorite theme. Then I went to "Audio" & tried a general search for something everyone has to see if it was working- I typed in under "Artist", the word "Beatles". It wouldn't let me search. The I tried search all types for "Beatles". It appeared to be searching, but came up with nothing. I rebooted my computer. It is still not working. Something is wrong today. I have no Java folder in my "house" icon, but I do have one in my hard disc, with no extensions. Can anyone help?
