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.

Default Could Not Move To Library?

To fix this problem, please download LimeWire from this link.

If you purchased PRO, you can download a LimeWire PRO with the fix by going to your personal PRO page and downloading the latest beta.

If that version of LimeWire doesn't work, please let us know by answering the questions below

------

What version is your 'kernel32.dll' file? To find this out, follow these steps:
- Double-click on 'My Computer'
- Double-click on 'Local Disk (C:)'
- Double-click on the 'Windows' folder
- Double-click on the 'system32' folder
- Right-click on the file 'kernel32.dll' and choose 'Properties'
- Click the 'Version' tab on the top.
- Click on the item "File Version" in the box on the bottom left.
- The full version should be listed in the box on the right.
*** What is that version listed?

Questions:

a) What operating system are you using?
b) What LimeWire version are you using?

c) Did downloading ever work before?
d) What day did downloading stop working?
e) Did you install any programs or updates (Windows Updates in particular) just before downloads stopped working?

f) How long is the path to your incomplete/save directory?
g) If you shorten the path (C:\Files\Saved) does it start working?
h) What drive is the save directory on?
i) Is the save directory on an internal or external drive?
j) Do you have many files that you are downloading?

k) Does the problem appear when you click on a search result to start downloading, or only after you've restarted LimeWire and it resumes old downloads?
l) Does the problem appear with every single download, or only some of them?
m) If it appears with only some of them, what do those downloads have in common? Are the names really long?
n) If it appears with all of them, try downloading some files that have very short names. Does it still fail?

o) Do you have any Anti Virus or Firewall programs running?
p) If so, can you disable them and try running LimeWire again?

a) I am currently using Windows XP Professional, with SP2. It should be noted that I have had SP2 for well over three months now, and I've never had an issue with LimeWire until recently.
b) Limewire version is Limewire Pro 4.2.3

Downloading has always worked for me until Wednesday, January 19th, when I recieved the error message and the infamous "Could not Move to Library." What I have not done is installed or updated anything on my computer in the recent few weeks.

My path is extremely short (D:/Music Files), as I save my files to an empty storage partition on my Primary(Master) Hard Drive. And likewise, the Incomplete folder is also on the storage disk (D:/Incomplete). I have not attempted to shorten the path, because it's about as short as it gets as is. As you might imagine, the Hard Drive is internal.

My downloading is mostly restricted to music files (as my distrust of anything .exe or.zip related has grown in the recent months). Downloading, for the past two months or so, has been limited to about ten songs every two weeks, with the occassional .rar file thrown in.

The problem occurs both when I start a fresh download from my search results and when attempting to "resume" a file after I have restarted the program. For that matter, it happens with every download I attempt. In fact, before I came to the Gnutella forums, I did try to download a file with a short file name but to no avail.

As far as Anti-virus software goes, I am currently using Ad-Aware SE Professional, Webroot's Spysweeper, Norton Antivirus 2005 Professional, and Spybot Search and Destroy. As of writing this post, all of it was disabled in order to attempt a download. I still receive the message.

Thanks for working on ths problem, it has become positively infuriating to say the least.

Edit: I felt it also worth mentioning that my Java was updated yesterday to 1.5...but only after I had begun to have the problems.

Exclamation

I have uninstalled and removed EVERYTHING about LimeWire from my computer 3 times and re-installed like 3 versions of LimeWire onto my computer and the first time I start it up every time I install it it comes up with an internal error and asks me if I want to send a report. I have sent the report every time however after that nothing downloads.
