Wink Upgrawde to Pro, but old files arent downloading

Hi there,

I upgraded to pro 4.12, I was on pro 4.10 before. At first i didnt have any of the files I was in the middle of downloading in my download screen (from previous pro). I found them and changed the file to suit. However, now they are all at 0% and it just keeps saying needs more sources, not connecting. Can anyone tell me how to reinstate the file files properly
Many thanks
Kez

Go to the LW Library window, select the incomplete folder, select the 1st to last incomplete file whilst holding down the SHIFT key & press the Resume button.

HI Thanks for responding so fast, I have tried that, it seemes to just go between waiting for sources to need more sources back in the download screen. When I went into the LW Library, all the files were in red, does that mean anything??

Red files means they're not being shared. Press the Refresh button (shouldn't do this very often but only if necessary!)

If the incomplete files are in red then that's different. It means LW has lossed the relationship with the downld source & the file listed in the downld window. Perhaps cancel those in red from the downld window & resume them from the LW Library window incomplete folder. That may help. Also see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?t=60383

Thanks, The red files are in the library, so going on what you are saying, I've lost the relationship along the line somewhere...grrrrrrr I just cant understand why they went missing in the first place. Seems like no win here... thanks heaps for your help though :-)

If it's happened to the incomplete files then see the usual reasons here Downlds refuse to reload (click on link)

LW 4.12 is the 1st version which will continue them from where they were & not from zero %!!!

Howevr if the files in red are your downld files then you probably aren't sharing them. The Saved Files folder files may be red if you don't have the option to share files immediately checked in the LW options. Recheck your Shared folders options. Go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Sharing & check the options & which folders you're sharing if any. Add the appropriate ones & press apply button. See How to Share Folders (click on link)
