Hey all,

This is my first post and I am new to using LW. I hope I don’t cross post but I have a lot of questions, any help would be great.

When I do NOT have LimeWire open or active dose this mean People still have access to my files? I am wondering also if and how much this demands on your system.

File management questions.

1. Where is the best place to direct the uploaded files or dose it simply not matter?
2. For use with iPod can anyone tell me the best way to name a file, so it is recognized properly by I Tunes?
3. Is there a way to automatically compare what is on the network vs what you have in LW and or itunes music library’s? SO you don’t keep uploading multiples of the same song type of thing.

Bringing in files from LW to Itunes

I have read up as much as I can find regarding LW – to – Itunes, but like many new users I am confused about the best approach.

I am down loading song files from LW network in to a separate directory, I now want bring it into itunes and also have copy of it in my Itunes library. I cant seam to figure out how to this right. Ive read the thread ( How to download music to my iPod & itunes) but don’t get it.

I am manually putting all the song titles from the same artist into a folder after down loading.

Then to make sure I copy the files into itunes Library what do I do?? Do I use ( Add file to library ) or ( Add Folder to Library)

Then Finally to update my ipod and have those songs update under the same artist (If they are new added songs from an existing artist) I want them to be added to the artist as part of the existing artist. What is happening is the songs are being added as separate entries into the ipod. For example I now have 4 Def Leppard entries in my iPod?? Im really confused about this. Is there a setting in preferences I am missing?

Any help on this would really be appreciated.
