I am simply adding my shared problem; sorry.... no solutions here, but also a very new member, I don't understand why an item will be listed in a search, and then not be available to download. First of all, I often get the message: 'need more sources'. I've noted the button at the bottom of the LimeWire that allows the user to initiate a search for sources, and I've used it recently. After the search, the new message becomes, 'waiting for sources', but of no use; my computer was on all night with hopes that the downloads would be initiated, but nothing changed. The same message: 'waiting for sources'. Is there a work around?
