Dynomite is flying high
Default Limewire to IPod

Hi,

I'm having the same problem... only, I think I know what is going on (and I don't know how to fix it):

When I run a search on Limewire, 99% of the time the file type that shows up is "MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3". When I double-click files of this type, I can hear them on the Limewire Player, but they are not automatically transferred over to my ITunes library. If however, the file is of the type, "MPEG 4 Audio", when I double-click it the file will play and is automatically tranferred over to ITunes (and can then be subsequently put onto my IPod).

How do you "instruct" Limewire to always download files as MPEG 4 Audio? I have used Limewire at friends houses, run the same searches, and the same files end up in their libraries as this file type.

Thanks!

Go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>iTunes>Sharing & disable sharing options. The other way is to go to iTunes preferences, (Edit menu) & select Sharing option & disable option.

BTW Jay's Limewire Tunes is what music you have downlded & is still in your LW downld folder. This playlist could potentially be shared over a LAN/WAN such as with family or work-mates depending upon where you are. I also disabled it because it drove my partner crazy with my playlist showing up on her computer in iTunes.
