From your account, you should be able to copy and paste your library into the other user account. Or you could put the files in a folder thats shared between all accounts.

Go to Start>My Computer>Local Disk (C:)>Documents and Settings. Then you can access the different User Accounts from there.

First you need to get the files that you want to share into a nonuserdefined area like just C:\Documents and Settings\All Users

Copy entire folder first to make sure no mistakes are made before deleting them at old location (incase diskspace is an issue)

If using Windows right-clicking on a file/folder wil give you the option to copy and paste

Then share that folder

Remember to change the location of the shared folder in your Limewire on other accounts as well

Also change your downloads folder accordingly depending on if you want your new downloads to go there as well

These options are in Limewire

Tools>Options>Downloads and Tools>Options>Sharing

If you can't find the location of your shared files go to library in Limewire on your old account, highlight a file and press explore Then press the folder with an arrow pointing up in the toolbar in the new window to find the folder (usually called Shared)
