1. See the following link & follow all the off-shoot links to find hints & extra skills to help solve your problem: To continue files downlding (click on link) OR/& just see the Sticky here: Downld/Upld Problems Sticky

2. Make sure your incompletes are set to last for a long time! Go to Tools>Options>Saving & change the 'Days to keep incomplete files' option from 7 days to 999.

3. If still issues, try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire. Mac OSX users will find their LW prefs here: /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/LimeWire AND Linux here: ~/.limewire

'Need more Sources' means just that. LW couldn't find the sources to downld from. So searching the topic again with LW is usually the best answer. Good answer from deacon72 to downld those files with a high no. of sources.
