If Gnutella network files, then re-search the topic of the files again, then some time later right-click the search tab & choose Find More Results. This will hopefully find more hosts to download from. Unfortunately in LW 5 you cannot delete the download file & re-select it from search results to help give it a fresh start because doing so deletes the incomplete file. |
file tpye is just mp3 audio files,, downloading music tracks.. and I'm searching the files through the client (so the Gnutella network, i guess)..
the right click you talk of, i clearly remeber this from the days back and was a regular feature i used and does work a charm.. however this missing from my right-click options.. which brings me to onto another part about the new limewire5.. limewire4 kicked ****,, i put in a search and even with basic priviallages it would throw back hundreds of search results,, whether as 5 is rather, well, not good at all,, i get far more what can only be considered as spam and no real files.. I finding it really difficult to find a real file of tracks i had easily downloaded of 4, on 5 and when I do get one getting more sources is a struggle,, then it does seem I'm missing the right-click option so this could be hindering me greatly...
one file a min ago downloaded at 50kb with only 1P2P so its there, its just properly tuning into it, i guess
Also something else a bit off topic is that i can no longer see the size of the file, which was damn handy to see right away whether it was of mp3 size
