Default New here and I'm already in trouble

I have a Mac OSX 10.4.11
I purchased limewire pro and when I download and try to install I get one message that says the version I'm trying to download is older than what I have already. Then it says there is nothing to download. Any ideas????

Use the advice in the * warning paragraph on this page: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/mac-os...0-5-later.html about removing the install limewire.pkg file from the Receipts folder.

BTW the newest version of LW you can use on OSX 10.4 is LW 4.18

Only intel computers running Leopard OSX 10.5 can run LW 5.

Thus, I would suggest you go to your personal Pro download page, & do as that first link suggests at bottom of page, get the older version LW 4.18

IF you forgot to bookmark your LW personal Pro download page, access it from here: Lime Wire » LimeWire PRO Lookup

Cool! Thanks for letting us know. If any other problems, drop in again. Also, lots of advice on these forums about LW OSX issues so worth looking around if you need to. Also advice on upload or download issues, etc. Ignoring or filtering spam, etc. Download/Upload advice ...
