I just downloaded Limewire and after playing with it, I finally got it to start downloading, but only songs in the column under "#" .

Why can't I download other songs?

Thanks
OG

The # column shows how many sources a file has (ie how many people have an identical version of that file).
If there's nothing in the # column, only 1 person has that file.
What happens when you try do download a file with only 1 source?

Have a look through these 2 stickies, there's a lot of useful info

Fake files showing up in search results

I get "Not enough Resources" or "Waiting on busy hosts"

If things sit connecting for a long time & then need more sources, could be fake files. You see this most often with files that have lots of sources.

If the file's not a fake, it could be that the source has gone offline since you searched or that they've got no upload slots free for you to download that file. In that case, try downloading a different file or search again. People are constantly shutting down & new people coming online, so a new search might bring up different results.

Ok, thanks for your input.
