Mac OSX Problems with installing LimeWire or WireShare for Mac OSX users |

| |||
MacOSX 10.4.2 and LimeWire Pro I am currently using a PowerBook G4 running MacOS 10.4.2 and I just updated my copy of LimeWire Pro from v4.8.1 Pro to v4.9.29. When I updated to v4.9.29, I noticed that I wasn't running LimeWire Pro anymore. I have the original confirmation email I received when I purchased LimeWire Pro (dated October 24, 2004) and I have attempted to use the link to download the installer. Is this link only good for six months? When I attempt to pull up any information using my email address I am given an error message. Is that information only stored for six months as well? Do I need to purchase a new copy of LimeWire Pro now? |

Same problem I have almost the same problem. I am running OS X 10.4.2 on a Powerbook G4. I purchase Limewire Pro. I received the link, downloaded what I thought was LimeWire Pro. Install the program......and it's not Pro but the basic. I tried to let my e-address to the appropriate support page but it send me automatically to the page which propose to download either Pro or Basic. |

Pro only lasts for six months. After that your e-mail address is removed from the data base. fwiw I reckon 4.9.29pro is worth the meagre re-investment and it goes to wards the continued development of an excelent product. |

kkaine, Sorry for the delay in replying. Try this: go to http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml >click Get pro >>>>> agree to no copyright infringement > You will see The order form. > click "already bought pro" enter your email address and you then have to choose which platform you have> click OSX and the download will begin, after you have chosen the save option. The file you get should be the right one. I explained this in detail as I want to know if it works exactly the same for you. |

Re: Thanks, but....... Quote:
When you purchase pro, it can take anywhere up to 24 hrs or on occasions up to 36 hrs before the LW customer support send you an email with a link to your personal pro downld page. You should bookmark this page. I've a suspicion you didn't actually purchase your so-called pro from the official site but a scam site who you paid & then they give you a link to the basic version. This is how they generally operate. Let's find out if this is true 1st so if it is you can cancel the transaction & start again if your card company is reasonable when it comes to online scam sites. FYI see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...5&pagenumber=1 If you did purchase LW Pro from the official site then you should be able to access your personal pro downld page from this link. |

After I purchased the product, I received a mail from customer@limewire.com with the following links : When I tried what you mentionned above, and I set my e-mail address where it is requested, I end up to the following pages : xxx or, because I want the french version xxxxx Each time it is the same page which shows : LIMEWire Pro Version 4.9.29 Welcome to Your LimeWire PRO Download Page! You're using a Netscape, Mozilla, or Firefox browser. Please bookmark this link (CTRL-D). This page has 5 links : Operating System Size Windows 3.2 MB Mac OSX 4.7 MB Mac Classic (Frozen at 4.0) 11.6 MB Linux (RPM) 4.2 MB ? Other (OS/2, Solaris, Linux) 4.6 MB When I used the OSX link, to download, it actually download something which appears to be Limewire BASIC.
