TICKET ARCHIVE -> Java Runtime Error

ugawugwa - Apr 24, 2005 - 1:18 am

Dear Tech-Support Staff,

I've been using Limewire as a peer 2 peer sharing network for about 8 months now and have not had a single problem. Then about 3 days ago, for some reason the program would not load up. I would click the logo and the icon would bounce and then nothing would load.

I would like to uninstall it, but i don't know where the uninstall application is. Also, this is my first mac and the first time I've had the desire to uninstall anything. So yeah, how do I uninstall it?

So, with the absence of Limewire I decided to try out Acquisition, and when I installed it and tried to run it, the program started up and after about 10 seconds told me I have a Java runtime error that is my OS's fault and not the application's. Also said it was a serious error. dammit.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Nick

Nick,

please give me some more details. What system are you running? Have you done any software updates lately?

right now i'm running on OSX 10.3.9 and I just installed the new Java software update for it, and things seem to be working fine now. Anyways, I switched to Acquisition, but I would still like to uninstall Limewire, how do I do that?

Nick,

I would uninstall manually. Remove the file /Library/Receipts/Install LimeWire.pkg, and the folders ~/Library/Preferences/LimeWire, /Applications/LimeWire, ~/Shared and /Incomplete
