I have the same issue, downloading programs, MP3s, and videos. This anomaly happens on my Mac Dual GHz machine, running Mac OS 9.2.2, with many items, both with and without "/". Any assistance would be appreciated.

If you encounter a file whose host computer owner thinks he can write a short novel as a title, then LW for Mac can't download it and you get the "cannot move to library" error. Find the equivalent file with a shorter name.

Is that the same explanation for "cannot move to library" errors on PCs?

No, Ria, you get the same error message with short titled files, but they DO contain slashes '/'. So is that the real problem?

Yes, that is an "illegal" character and won't download for any version of LW.

I have WinXP with all released patches. I also have installed Java 2 runtime environment. I have had no problems with Limewire until upgrading to 2.54. I have tried to install this release various ways (diiferent drives, different share locations, ETC).

This release has problems and I hope that the developers admit it and fix what ever the bug is!

I aslo found that they delivered some sort of patch into the shared directory. When you go to install it, it provides a very basic description as to what it is - all. What is all? Am I supposed to install software that says all?

Any insight would be appreciated.

i seem to have the same prob with not being able to move songs to the library where you able to figure it out and if so could you help me . Thanks

Freiluft, I have the same problem with other files: the title is not too long and doesn't contain a slash. I can't see a common denominator. Are you sure the problem is with the file name?

This thread goes into greater detail about could not move to library:

It might mention a case not given here.

Fixed the problem of getting the can't move to library message. I was running Limewire 5.4.4 on Windows XP. Uninstalled 2.5.4 and installed 2.4.3. I have had no problems since. This is an obvious coding problem in 2.5.

All of the speculation as to how users are sharing is BULL. Why does 2.4.3 work fine????

I suggest a LImewire developer exam the code difference between 2.4.3 abd 2.5.4 and see what changed that may be causing this problem!
