I am using an Intel Mac running OSX.5.6.

I was using Limewire 4.18 and it produced a message saying that it could not find my incomplete downloads. They were still in the incomplete folder with all of their progress.

I updated to Limewire 5 (just basic) and it wiped out not only my 4.18 but would not recognize the progress of my incompletes.

I tried to reinstall a previous version (4.14) and it also did not recognize the progress made but all of the files were still in the incomplete folder at their various stages of downloading.

I had read in another post that a solution to this was deleting the .dat &.bak download files however when this was done (and I only moved them to the trash w/out deleting them) it wiped out all but a few of my incompletes - over 60gb of partially downloaded material was completely lost and Limewire will still not recognize the few files that are still there. Returning the trash files to their location did not correct the problem.

What the hell is going on????????????? I have lost a file or two before but never everything!
