Used Limewire forever, no issues. Set up port exceptions, still didn't work. 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of FW's interface? NO! That's whats ticking me off No Brick. Exceptions On. Excellent connection quality. 1oo's of files already downloaded on same connection... everything just stays at "Connecting" now, and then DOESN'T DOWNLOAD. |
Files that sit connecting for ages, then need more sources are usually fakes. Is it really all files that are doing this? Try searching for some old songs & see what happens. Stay away from the files with large numbers of sources...try a file with 10 or less sources & see what happens. Check the stickies below for more info & tips Fake files showing up in search results How to find music (info here applies to movies, too) If it really is every file getting stuck, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's closed. See points 2 & 3 below. If you've used older versions of LW you maight have a folder in either location, so check both. Fixes for LimeWire |
