Default Cannot play songs after downloading them

Does anybody know what to do if I can't play songs after downloading them successfully? There's a funny looking icon and it says that limewire cannot find a license for any of the songs i search for or download. Could not find an answer to this problem in any previous posts.

Try this...Go to tools > options > searching and make sure the license warning box isn't ticked...then select apply...
If you still have problems after that let us know, with information on what Media player you are using...

i did see that as a suggestion before i wrote in and nothing - i can actually play songs if i save them from my shared file to my "now playing list" then to my library in real player, and i have to resave them, as they become unavailable after a few minutes, but they still won't play in limewire's player.

The Limewire player is known to have this glitch...it isn't very reliable...

itunes is an excellent media player, you should give that a go...

At the top of the Limewire window you will find tools

Cannot play songs after downloading them-2006-12-14_104508.png

Click on that and then select options, then select searching

Cannot play songs after downloading them-2006-12-14_104647.png

You will then see this box

Cannot play songs after downloading them-2006-12-14_104726.png

Make sure that box doesn't have a tick in it, if it has uncheck it and select apply....
