Will only download 3 at a time.
 

Okay. Longtime Limewire user, and I can't find anything in the FAQ for my problem. My Limewire will only connect and download 3 downloads at a time. After the 3 have downloaded I highlight, and click either find more sources, or resume, and 3 more will connect. I have un-installed, and installed already. My max downloads are not set on three. I think it is set at 10 at a time. for 2 years I have not had a problem. I have done a restore on my PC to a few weeks back. No change. I havent changed anything either. I'm running:
Windows Media Center 2005 w/ sp/2 and all patches up to date.
I'm thinking going back to a previous version might help.

When you changed the Max downloads to 10 did you select apply after it...

Also try deleting your preference folder it may help...;) (point 2 onwards)

Thanks. I'll give it a try. My max downloads is set on 10. I have tried 10, 15, all different numbers. Still only 3. I'll try the other one. thanks
