hello.
i cannot upload a mpg file that is in my library.
it is a shortvideo i made and want to share.
when i run a search, it only finds WMV files, with the same name as my video, but never the mpg that is in my shared folder.
MAC OSX, firewall gnutella ok.
please help

Ah don't be tricked by autogenerated spam results (click on link)

To see if your video has been uplded or seen by others, go to your LW Library window & select that folder. Then look to the far right & you'll see whether people have downlded it or attempted to downld it or found it in their searches. Those stats are only true for that session.

Also do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image (click on link) If the result is True then that's good.

Helo.
thks for your quick reply.
Still no solution though.
mayb u didnt get my problem? i have this one video on my LW library, im trying to share it. i run a search from my own mac to verify if it is possible to share it, but the search rests are only of WMV files of the same name which turnn out to be weird ipod pictures(?!!!) nothing to do with my video. i run searches for other files in my lm lib. and i do find them! i hv chekd my file and it is perfect in content, i hv moved it, renamed it etc... still no good. any ideas?
thks so much for your kind attention.

best

1. You didn't understand my answer b/c you obviously didn't read the links (yes click on the bludy links lol) I left or read my answer carefully.

2. You cannot find your own files on your comp in a Gnet search.

If you are firewalled such as by a comp softw firewall or a modem/router nat firewall then people may find it very difficult to downld from you. That's why I wanted you to do the bug test to make sure you're clear. (By the way, links are those things above that are underlined & in this case coloured red & shine orange or blue when you hover your cursor over the top of them. So click them & see where it takes you.)

Below is a single folder of my shared folders as viewed from the LW Library window. It shows the hits & successful downlds of these files during a single session. (Mind you I share many, many a folder.)

btw--if a user does want to see their own files in search results, just enter ones own IP in Direct Connect.

Maybe it's the way I'm set up but that's never worked for me on this mac. lol Nor can I view my windows 2k or vice versa from the same computer. lol hahaha

LOTR--I'll recheck.

Valentina--post or message the name of your video and maybe we can try to find it. If it shows in black type (not red) in your LimeWire Library, others should be able to find it.

I sent Valentina a pm asking exactly the same thing (including an apology.) So with any luck one of us should be able to at least find it & hopefully be able to access it for downlding.

Hey,
thks sooo much for your attention once again and for your humor too!

this is the name of my video:

GrannyValentinaHomem
