Limewire 4.0 for Mac classic is available from http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...oadfree2.shtml

Will this not be suitable for you? You may have to twiddle with the Java to get it to work (sorry I don't no quite how on classic).

Are you running OS9 or running Classic under OSX? ... which never seems to work very well, imho

we need someone here who uses OS9 .. or can remember it a lot better than I can ...

I'm afraid no one seems to have taken up the chalenge on this one ... I have looked for an older version of LW, but as yet I haven't found one, but If I understand you, you still have a version of LW which used to work, so what exactly happenned when it stopped working?

Default Older versions of Limewire

I've just registered with the forum and came across your posting. I know a couple of months have passed since you posted your message, but if you still need pre-4.0 versions of Limewire, I have an asssortment of basic and pro versions that I can pass on to you. If you are still interested in getting early versions, let me know and we can ry to figure out a way to get them to you.

Another note for this here old thread, lol Update from OS 9.1 to 9.2.2 & update your Java also.
For OS 9 updates see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75288

Java updates:

MRJ 2.2.6 for OS 9.2.2
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120209

MRJ 2.2.5 for OS 8.1-9.2
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75097

If LW still doesn't run, delete your LW preferences folder found in the System preferences folder. View the preferences folder by list mode & alphabetical & .limewire folder should be at the top of the list. Trash it!

You'd need to update to OS 9.2.2 1st before updating your Java. Then do each Java install starting from MRJ 2.2.5

BTW updating from os 9.1 I think also needs to be in steps. 1. 9.2.1 & then 2. 9.2.2

I have LW 4.0.8
I wouldn't recommend getting earlier than version 4. Some clients ban the earlier versions so you would have difficulty connecting to some people.
