My music is erased!! HELP!
 
Maybe you know something I don't... but when my music is done downloading and is in the limewire libary ... i click and drag it to my windows media so that i can keep my music organized in there .... but i feel like limewire is getting to full with music, so I'm thinking since i DO have it saved in my playlist in windows media I don't need it in limewire ... so i will erase it from limewire.. and when i do this it erases it in my windows media ... EVEN WHEN I SAVE MY PLAYLIST ... what am i doing wrong? ... :blink:

Do not delete the file, when you have downloaded a music file from limewire, limewire saves it into a file. When you drag the music into media player and delete it from limewire, you are deleting the file that has been created, so your media player loses the file too. Basically, you need it in your limewire library (as this lists the files that are saved to your computer) in order for media player to read it and keep it saved. Don't worry, you won't waste twice as much memory by keeping them both open, they are read from the same file.

Sorry if this makes no sense, I tried to stop myself from spilling out too much technical rubbish, but it didn't seem to work............

As far as I know, it does not. It is autmotically saved to your hard-drive, so as long as you have enough memory (I believe so anyway) you can have as much as you want on there. :)
