Followed all suggestions, still unable to share files Hi all,
I was hoping one of you fine folks can point me in the direction of what I must be missing.
I was running LimeWire 408 on XP Pro with great success, pointing the shared & saved files to a folder on another system on my local network. All was well.
Then, I had to reformat my system. I reinstalled the same version of LimeWire. I can search and download, but I am sharing 0 files, should be about 2000. I pointed LimeWire toward the shared/saved folders on the same system on my local network, as before. LimeWire shows it is directed toward the correct folders, but does not recognize there are files inside, with the exception of the Incompleted folder (which is in the same location as the saved/shared files). If I go to the library tab, the folders appear to be empty, though they are packed with great tunes.
I have read through tons of posts. I've deleted the LimeWire preferences folder - no luck. I found that the LimeWire default Shared folder was missing, so added it (even though I don't use it) - no luck. I've tried pointing to the correct folders via both the Library tab & the Options-Tools route - no luck. I've reinstalled, rebooted and re-read posts. I do not have SP2 installed, so no firewall issues. My network is the same as before, so I must be missing something in LimeWire.
This worked great before I reinstalled and all my parameters look the same. Any input will be much appreciated.
