"Can not move to library" error
 

i have downloaded songs but instead of moving them automatically to my library they come up with the message unable to move to library....and i can't access them at all. if anyone can help id appreciate it

Look in the tools menu, options, saving and make sure you have a valid directory selected. If you don't, create one and direct your downloads into it. You should also check your shared directories under tools, options, sharing to make sure they are valid.

Good Luck,

Norm

I had the same problem after installing RealOne Player. For some reason my Shared folder was set to "Read Only" status, hence no files could be transferred to it.

All you need do is right click your Shared folder and un-check the "Read Only" checkbox.

I hope this is helpful!

Confirming problem
 

I can confirm that this is a problem with 2.7.3 under Windows 2000. The save directory exists and has full access for "Everyone", and so does the Incomplete directory, but when trying to download a file, "Could Not Move To Library" is immediately returned.

Note: This only happens for files that contain non-US ASCII characters in the name, like ***************.mp3", which is displayed as (note the incorrect display) *******************.mp3".

The problem seems to occur with EVERY file name that isn't in US ASCII.
This was no problem with earlier versions of LimeWire.

similar problem seen
 

I have just seen a similar problem. Mine was a result of adding a file to the 'wishlist' after a zero search completed. In the download screen the filename was listed with the last character being an '*' (that is the last character before the '.mp3'), a file size was shown, the progress listed 100% and then the message 'Unable to move to library'. I verified that I don't have the file anywhere else on my drives, and when I chose 'clear inactive', it cleared and the next time I searched for the same file and added it to my wishlist it is doing the 'requery sent...' message as I would expect.
strange....
