1) because it limits to the limit u say it. if this limit is above than your mixer's ability, then it will clip.
2) it is possible, if you feed the clipping source into a BUS, and then limit the bus's volume:
the bus already has distorted source.
maybe there's other way to get distorted sound..

1) But my mixer is inside Logic......and my limit number is -0,5 (and the volume goes and clips very higher than that)......it only stops clipping if i lower the volume (so the limiter is useless)

check the channel u put the limiter on, make sure it's at 0dB or less and not above.

listen, i suspect [hope i am right] u use limiter as a "send" effect, and this is not a good idea.
you should use it as "insert" effect.
difference: if it is a send effect, no matter how you mix the signal in the effect, the output is summed with the original=> limiter has no use of this.
and if i am wrong - then this limiter doesn't work properly [ a real limiter works on bounded signals - if u exceed the limit, the transistors go into saturation=> u get distortion anyway, but from a soft. limiter i would expect something else]
boom.
boom.
