Unable to move to library
 
You're directory has probably hit it's limit as far as the number of individual files in it's root. Try creating a new directory under your current one and share it. I had the same problem just a few weeks ago and this corrected it.

My shared directory had 364 files at a combined sz of 1.47GB.

Lost file (442MB!)
 
I have LimeWire 4.2.6, and was viewing a 98% complete file (that had been that way for days!). Apparently, the source finally came back on-line, and the download completed while I was viewing it. When I closed the player, there was this message about being unable to move to library; the file no longer exists! The file was deleted from "Incomplete" even though it was not copied to the shared folder. I am NOT a happy camper!

This bug really needs to be fixed. If the file had simply been left in the "Incomplete" folder, I could have taken care of moving it, myslef. I also would have been able to copy it to a CD. As it is, I have nothing to show for several days efforts at downloading the file.

A related matter is that there should be some sort of priority set for high file size and high percentage of completion, so that this situation of waiting days for the last 2% of a 442MB file does not reoccur.

Unbelievable ... it happened again!
 
I chose to view a video that has been sitting at 98% complete for a week with no activity and (sure enough!) while I was viewing it, the download completed. That is two 420MB+ files that have been irretrievably lost by the LimeWire software. This certainly must qualify as a bug with a high priority on the 'fix it' schedule! I can understand not being able to move the file from 'incomplete' to the fully sharable library. But why delete it from 'Incomplete' before the move process is successful?

Have you tried following the directions in the first post that explain how to download a newer version of LimeWire?

I have 4.2.6, and everything that I have seen indicates that is the most recent version available. (I have had it about a month.)Will downloading a newer version require stopping current downloads (even if I do not install the new version)?

LimeWire 4.4.1
 
I have now downloaded and installed the BETA 4.3.3 (which turned out to be 4.4.1) from the original post in this thread. I now find that I am an "UltraPeer", and the quality is now 'Turbocharged". Under 4.2.6 I rarely saw more than five users downloading from me; under 4.4.1 I have 20 active and 10 queued! That is a lot of difference! (Now if only I had had it before I lost those two huge downloads. http://gooroosgruntz.neronhosting.com/emoticons/sad.gif )

I simply downloaded the newest version of LimeWire (4.4.1) without even knowing about this error (just to have it) and am now experiencing the "Could not move to Library" problem with the new version. I tried reinstalling, removing all previous installations, restarting my computer, changing library folders...EVERYTHING.

Please help!

I believe this problem has something to do with the Shared Folder location. I started getting this error after I moved my shared folder to my desktop. Could somebody tell me the default location and name of the shared folder? Thanks.

EDIT: The new version does work for me but I am trouble locating my shared files...
