mp3's downloaded to my mac show up in the correct file in my hardrive but
almost none stay in my library.

if i close limewire and reopen, most files
are no longer in the library although still on the hardrive.

am i skipping a step to saving them in the library?

i've checked the tools/options section and the path to the mp3's is the
same as the file they are in on the hardrive.
