Hi,

I'm not really Clear on when something is getting Up-Loaded. I also have some trouble taking an AIF/AIFF CD song and converting to mp3.

The folders/files are in Library (ad to share Lib). They show hits. Some songs have 30, 20, 10 hits, but none show up in the Up-load column. And to top it off the TYPE is Aif.

I tried a demo converter and it gave me mp4, which I found out later is a protected locked format.

Anyhow, do you mean that if I Up-Load a CD song, then go to search I can't see it on LW myself?

Although some songs showed hits, I asked a friend to see if he could search and see it/ download it. He couldn't.

If the songs have hits wouldn't they be getting downloaded? How can you hear a song without fully downloading it? Got me. Any Help is really appreciated.

Lots of questions!
The best place to start looking for answers is LW's Help Menu, as you already know.

Re the uploads/hits, not all files that get hits are uploaded from you, for the same reason that you don't download every file that shows up in your searches.

Your friend can more easily find your files IF you are connected to common hosts in the Connections Pane. If you both enter each other's IP numbers in the entry box at the bottom of the Connections Pane, that can sometimes help. After all, not everyone can directly connect to everyone else at the same time!

Cheers

Yeah, I've got the basics but...thanks again...

Don't know if this will help but on a Mac get a little app called Sound App Fat and it will convert the .aif files to .mp3 files either from the file or CD. It's tiny and works great.
