I had no problems downloading Limewire, but on installation setup, I get a message "Could not open import file for splittet files." Any ideas? Is this just a case of Vista being lame? Thanks for any help

If you're using Kaspersky, try pausing it before installation. See this thread for more info (click on link): "Could not open input file for splittet files"

And if that doesn't work, there are other fixes to try in the longer version of that thread here (click on link): "Could not open input file for splittet files"

I downloaded the newest version recently which was the file "LimeWireWin.exe", but when I click on it to open and install, nothing happens. The little hourglass shows up for about 3 seconds, then nothing happens. What can I do to fix this? What am I doing wrong? Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere.... Thanks for the help.

Try right-clicking the installer & choose Run as Administrator. If you have the online installer from LW site, then try the offline installer Select your LW version

I have tried to uninstal and down load from many sites and still will not start HELP:mad2:

What system are you running? Did you try this technique: Reinstallation Technique :) Might need to set to Run as Admin, also might need to change compatibility mode. ;)
