Default Problem viewing search results

Can anybody help me, PLEASE? When I do a search, the search bar fills in and I see numbers- something like 252/378, which I assume means the search engine has found 252 out of the 378 files that I searched for, but either nothing displays, or very little displays, I have checked all menus and can find nothing that seems to pertain to this issue.

Just check this...Go to Tools > Options > Searching > license Warning and make sure the box is not ticked and select apply...

If you still have problems try some of the tips in this thread...

Default Still no success.

I don't know where else to go for help. I am new to forums but not computers. This forum makes no sense to me. I don not have a connection proble, or a downloading problem. When I DO find something, i have little trouble downloading it. I have checked the FAQs and spent hours going through these threads, to no avail.

When your search results are displayed, have a look to the left side of the results. You'll see different categories, depending on what type of search you've done...media, artist, genre, album etc. If you select 'All', you should see all the available results (& so the numbers you see in parenthesis will change). Selecting different options within these categories will change the amount of results shown, compared to the total results found.

However, if your junk filter has recognised some of the files as junk & if you've chosen (within LW's options) to not display junk...those results won't be shown.

Also, the number of lines of results you'll see from a search depends on how many sources are sharing an identical version of a file. For instance, there might be 500 results found in total, but only 6 or 7 lines of results showing. There may be some files with a large number of sources (in the # column) & these all count towards the total number of results displayed

I have version 4.9.23 PRO and can find no reference what-so-ever to JUNK in the tool/opitons menu? Am I missing something here?

Your using an old version of LW. That option wasn't available then. Try the latest version, Basic is free: LimeWire: The Official Site for the Fastest File Sharing Program on the Planet
