Unhappy I can not save the songs i download

Hi can you help me with my problem please? I am new to LimeWire and my brother showed me how to download my first song which was successful.
I was downloading some more songs but when I went to play one from the library there was nothing there! I have asked my brother and my dad and everyone I know whohas LimeWire but this has never happened to them. Please if you know anyone who can help me or if you can help me yourself then that would be great because I can not listen to any of my songs I spend my time downloading.
Many regards... Abzdancer95
p.s Hurry please (no pressure. Ha.)

Exclamation limewire

Hi
well, that is strange, the only thing i could suggest is try doing a search for the songs that you downloaded, then u could send them to your music folder...I personally have never heard of this b4, if it was sucessfully dl, then iy should have went straight to you lw library..

Thumbs down Downloading Movies

Why did I have to pay for the pro version of lime wire If the Movie download speeds did not increase. Yes I have tired all solutions offered to enable increased download speeds but still on most movies I get speed of only 30-60 kbps I run off of cable rr 15mbps so I should expect better speeds than that right??? turbo charged internet connection my butt. Not worth the 21 $$$

Default

Hello Lee..I'm new to Pro and have followed your thread.My IP addy is 192.168.0.1... Dunno if that helps.I'm on a home laptop (1.5GhZ)with a new Skybroad LAN connection that claims a speed of 100Kbs.Have Port Forwarding set up (I think).
Problem at the moment is that I get loads of Sources, but downloads remain on 'Awaiting Sources".
Please help.
Thanks...Stan.

Default Download/Upload speeds

After following the forum for a while now, I'm hoping that someone can help me sort out why my download speeds have gone from up to 500Kbps to stuck on 'awaiting sources' or 'locating sources.'
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Oh yeah...I'm on a home laptop,with a Skybroadband LAN connection that claims to be 100Kbps. It's a new router that is apparently on port Forwarding.

Hope that helps.

Cheers.

Default Hosts Tried

I'm going to presume that this is the proper forum location for my problem.

Each time I do a search for a movie and it lists a large number of hosts and I click to start a download all it does is indicate the number of hosts its' tried. It bebins with one and sometimes gets to the double or even triple digits before it switches to Need More Source. If I click on the item and then click on Resume it simply starts the process all over.

What's wrong?

Default Upload/firewall issues

I have the problem of not being able to have files upload and believe it's because of an firewall issue as the firewall brick block is always over the connection on the lower left hand side of l/w. I have tried every suggestion for disabling windows firewalls, norton security firewalls, etc., etc.

The strange thing is that I have been able to connect uploads and downloads in the past. It seems to change after a couple of months.

I see that one of the sugggestions talks about forcing an IP. I did get an IP address from the http address in the suggestion but now need advice on where to put it in limewire.

Thanks for any help you can offer

Ok folks I read al this and I must say it makes no sense at all to us Non computer people. I am not new to Limewire have been using for months now. Was using 360 Share pro. Now this past Friday Limewire froze up my computer trying to download a video. I had to force my computer to shut off by holding the power button. Then I went back to LW and all my vidoes that were saevd in my library are gone.
I try to download videos and I am looking at more than 150 host in a file T3 or better 4 stars and it can't find the host to download from. Try another and another and same results. I ran my Antivirus I did have a worm and got rid of that. If i do get a download the connection is realy slow and I only get 2 host max.
I am running windoiws X Home Edition Version 5.12600 my Ops in Micro Soft
It is a Compact Presario I do know I am now low on memory 2Mb but I have dumped alot of pics and games and got rid of some of the files in "My Favorites"
If i am asking the same question over as above I am sorry I read this several times and it seems like there one say do this and another says not good to do
