Why wont lime wire connect

Question

ive used it for ages dn had no problem bt nw it wont connect.

only 1 bar in da bottom left is green and the rest are red

Answer 1

Iv had the same problem switched to frost wire

Answer 2

Try closing it opening again. Some I think some ISPs are blocking it now - Virgin were certainly sending out warnings to a lot of the people that use it. Try a download site and download torrents directly instead.

Answer 3

Limewire is ****** up

Answer 4

Try all the available pong caches. If those do not work, try router.limewire.com:6349.

Next week, the LimeWire clients should connect better with the addition of some new server hardware/software.

On the Connections tab, there are two add buttons and a textfield beside each.

If you just want to manually use connect1.limewire.com this one time to connect, then type it into the upper textfield and hit the add button.

If you always want to use connect1.limewire.com for connecting, type it into the lower textfield, click the add button and then click connect.

Assuming that your connect button is working (you may need to wait a little and try again), that should work.

If you have never connected with BearShare or LimeWire then you are behind some type of firewall or proxy where you can not connect. If only your browser (Netscape or IE) can work in general then you won't be able to connect.

If it is just an issue of the connect button not working, try the community tab to force an attempt. Experiment a little.

Answer 5

i had the same problem so i deleted limewire and downloaded frostwire it works the exact same as lime wire does.
