Hi

Unfortunately, this was the second thing I tried but Limeware refuses to allow me to nominate the iTunes file as a shared file. I also tried to save new iTunes mp3s to the Limeware shared file but that didn't work. I fiddled around with "export" in iTunes but that didn't do anything useful. I deleted the Limeware "Shared" file and then dragged a mixture of Limeware and iTunes files into a new "Shared" file. Limeware only accepted the old files. It is so frustrating because if you drag a Limeware file from "Shared" to the new "Shared 1", it shows up a few minutes later. I therefore conclude that iTunes writes a unique code of some sort on to its files that prevents Limeware from accessing them and I cannot find anyway of removing it. What surprises me about this is that no-one else seems to have this problem or do they consider the answer so obvious that it would be embarrassing to have to explain it to me. Well, whatever the reason, I have actually given up and deleted all the experimental files. My stock of albums spanning the last forty years will have to remain inaccessible. It will keep the copyright piracy police from my door.

Thanks for your interest.

David
