1. In the finder, type command F and search for 'shared' in Sherlock.

2. Open your shared folder. You may find more than one, in which case open all of them until you find your music.

3. Open itunes and resize the windows so that the itunes window and the shared folder are both visible.

4. Drag the mp3s into the itunes window.

Thaaaar be your music!


If you can't drag an mp3 into itunes, follow these steps (sorry, it's a bit tedious):

1. Startup OS9 or Classic Mode

2. Download itunes associator and place its icon on the desktop (command M)

3. Drag the mp3s onto itunes associator.

4. Go back to OSX and drag them into itunes.

The download problems you have are due to limitations of the Gnutella network not Limewire. You can only download from hosts that have available upload bandwidth and only at the maximum speed of the host (even if you have a Tacheon-Faster-than-light-Interstellar connection). Download Now wouldn't work, just as Force Resume doesn't for this reason. Also some other clients are badly written and don't seem to handle requests very well.

Location is available by command clicking the title bar in the search window and selecting Location from the popup menu.
