LW 5 has an option to automatically add files to iTunes (now works for Windows users - LW 4 only had that option for Mac users)

In LW go Tools > Options > Downloads. Tick the box to automatically add files to iTunes > click ok.

Just FYI, the Explore button's not in LW 5 but you can do the same thing by using 'Locate File on Disk'. This thread has more info about that: Using LimeWire 5 to find your files on your computer using 'Locate File on Disk' tool

Edit: Oops - too slow

no cuz i have windows vista and have the stuff you were saying to click on wasnt there

i no that LW5 doesent have explore. but i hav windows vista can anyone tell me how to do something similiar. i just want my limewire songs to go onto my itunes. is there a simple explanation, like there was with the old limewire?

You should have the option to add files to iTunes. Doesn't matter if it's XP or Vista. Can you take a screenshot of LW's Tools > Options > Downloads page?

What happens when you go to My Library, right click on a file & choose 'Locate on Disk'? Doesn't that open your saved folder? Same as Explore used to do.

BTW what Birdy told you via a link is the LW 5 equivalent to the explore button but even better. Please click links given you or we are half wasting out time.

OMG YES!!!! thank you guys. your life savers

I am having the same problem in getting Limewire songs to open in ITunes. I have followed all the instructions as given to previous enquirers but to no avail. How do I make a file in Limewire so I can transfer that file to ITunes. Moya
