The problem is 10.4.10 needs to be updated.

Run Apple Menu->Software Update several times until all updates are installed. That should fix the problem.

Question Me Too

I'm having a similar problem, except everytime I go to open Limewire it comes up with the installation screen again, and won't run.



Does anyone know why this might be happening and what I can do to fix it?

What happens if you go to the Applications folder, open the LimeWire folder, and double-click the LimeWire icon found there?

Default Hey Guys.......

I hav fixed this prob....
wat i did was .....

1st of all, I removed each and every file related to limewire frm the mac,
then i updated my java to the latest version through 'software update',
then nxt i downloaded and installed the limewire frm its website...
and it is working perfectly.

dat means the mess was with the java version which u ned to update to the latest version..... I hope this solution works 4 u all!!!!!!!
