I just downloaded the 2.4.4 version and all my songs from the 1.6 version won't transfer over to the new library? I've tried everything...does anybody know how to transfer the songs over to the new beta?

You can point the current version to the location of your old files:

Tools|Options|Sharing

Will allow you to add folders to be shared. Simply point it at the location of your old files. Default location is:

Program Files\LimeWire\Shared

If your files aren't there - you'll have to search for them.
