Default Download Connection Prob.

Everytime i click to download any song, it automaticly goes to "need more sources" or "waiting" or "awaiting" This is very frustrating! I have no problem searching for the songs i want, but i can never connect! Need Some help guys!

This is normal it happens to everyone but eventualy you should be able to get a download.
Just wondering did you download a file yet? and how long have you been using limewire?
Oh yeh make shure you share alot of files min 50 otherwise hosts have settings which won't let you download because your considerer a freeloader. someone which downloads but doesn't let others upload.

Waiting means the source's upld bandwidth is full & you must wait for a dwnld-share-time with others. Can't find enough sources: this has been answered on the forum before. Do a search of this forum & you'll find ways of how to best get these dwnlding. (Try searching using the word sources or resources & limit your search to one week.)

Heheheh Congratulations. But actually it is true. A no. of people do stop people who share less than a certain no. files to connect to them. I've read somebody had the minimum set to 500.
