Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) Moderators There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

help for a new user For some reason, after fiddling with Limewire and downoading some, in the "search" mode, I can no longer see the windwos that formerly came up showing me how many downloads were available for that artist, etc. (I am running Mac 9.2) Can anyone help? Thanks! |

Hi You can nominate how many search windows you want to keep "alive" in LW>Preferences. Once you have reached the maximum you set, LW will automatically drop one of the hit lists on the basis of first in, first out. Since you need to keep the hit lists for the files you are downloading, use the manual delete (that's the cross in the box shown in each tag) to stay within your maximum. |

maybe more help? Thanks for the help! I am much more adept at downloading etc. now, but I have a very hard time navigating the files to my iTunes Library--it just won't open Limewire to take them. Know anything about this? And are you really 91? Awesome.... Lisa |

You ARE a genius...but do you know if..... Thak you so much for that info. I followed your direction--implicitly--and found all the files, and they are converting as we speak. That alone is great....but since you know iTunes and Mac (thank my lucky stars for that!!), do you happen to know if they will actually BE in my Library, or I gues smore speciafically, my iTunes Music folder? I have managed to get files into the Librar before, but then I deleted them from where I got them, and when I went to play them (or burn them to a CD) I was "told" that altho I could see the tiels, the files had been delted, as they had not been put into iTunes Musc folder (I am still trying to figure out how to get them from Library into that folder). And thank you SO MUCH again for your help. Lisa |

Additionally I guess what I should have asked--and please forgive the horrible typos--is if the green check next to the song title in iTunes means they are really THERE, as in can they actually be deleted from the (folder on my) HD (that contains them)? Thanks again..... Lisa |

blackbird In some cases you are absolutely correct. On the other hand, dependent upon the software you have, you can also improve an mp3. Say a 96 bit rate converted to 192 bit rate setting. It may not be true 192, but the mp3 will be better. |
