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.

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.

1st you need a cd burner & 2ndly burner software. Mac os can itself burn disks (using 'Disc Burner') if you have an internal cd burner. Just drop a blank CD-R into the cd-tray & a message should appear asking what type of cd you wish to burn. Select audio/music (not mp3.) I can't remember too much about this process for audio cd's because I have always personally used Toast. Roxio Toast can burn most types of cd, is very easy to use & can burn to external burners also. Tell me what you have.?

To get the tunes to your burner: go to LW's menu Options & Saving & this will tell you the name & location of LW's dwnld folder. Once found drag & drop these files from the finder into your burner app (for mac burner that's a disc image.) Alternativelly if you have iTunes, it should have burn options in the preferences.

Oh by the way, you shouldn't add personal names (yours/others) or other personal info to any of your posts.

Tell us what you have as far as burner apps go. Disc Burner app itself can be found in the Utilities folder. That's if you wish to open it manually. Disc Burner icon is below:

Default Burned successfully but can't hear tunes, only on my computer

Hi there,
Well I have been successful at downloading burning and playing back the CD ONLY on my computer. I can't play it in my car or on any CD player. When I was asked to prepare the CD I was given 3 choices Standard, audio, and MP3. I tried standard- didn't playback, I tried audio and my computer told me this only can be used wth Mac OSX, I have OS.9.1. I tried MP3 the playback is beautiful again ONLY on my computer. Any suggestions??? BTW The songs are recorded (burned) in Quicktime.

The tunes probably have QT icons b/c it may be how you have your file exchange setup. As for burning, you didn't tell me which burner softw you used. I'm guessing it was Disc Burner right? I do remember there was some issues about this which is why I always carried Toast around with me whenever I visited a mac. I'm in osx at present (& it doesn't open in Classic environment) so you'll have to wait 24 hrs for me to check it out. May I suggest you locate your Disc Burner & go to the menu bar & find Preferences. There should be an option for burn speed. Change it to the least (eg: single speed.) I think the default is for maximum speed! The problem is that some earlier burners didn't like audio disks burnt at high speeds (my 1st one would only allow single speed else it would ONLY play on my computer like you said.) In fact, even for today's very fast burners there can be issues burning audio disks at the highest speeds. You should choose Audio format. Standard is for data only & mp3 for mp3 players/dvd players only.
By the way, you should have posted this in your previous thread. I left questions there for you but you didn't reply. For the same topic stick to the one thread. It makes it easier for us to relate to all previous info & issues.

Sorry about this misunderstanding with generating a new thread for the same topic. Still trying to get my bearings here. I believe I disc burner is the one. I have downloaded audion however every time I go to use it it locks up entirely. BTW I am having trouble accessing your previous private e-mail could you possibly resend it so that I could read that too.
Let me ask you this, is it better to just install Mac OSX than to have OS 9.1. I feel I am very limited here with OS 9 and trying to create audio CDS. Thanks!

As far as LW is concerned, OS9 is limited b/c LW runs on Java & java has been advancing far beyond the last available version of java for os9. LW has also recently stopped developing new versions for os9.

As far as upgrading to osx, well that depends upon whether you have it already on disk (or wish to purchase it) & whether your computer has sufficient ram. You can use osx from G3 upwards but it would be quite slow to run on any mac with anything less than about 450-500 MHz proc. It depends what you're using it for however.

As far as Audion goes, are you sure you dwnlded the OS9 version & not the OSX version. The os9 version is 'supposed' to be able to run on os8.6-9.

It sounds like you have Apple's Disc Burner.
