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. |

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.
