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.

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.

 Hey everyone!! The reason I am writing today is because I have been experiencing the same problems as the rest of you. My problem is EXACTLY like Suomi's problem-- my files completely disappear! I have looked everywhere for them. They are not in my "Incomplete" folder... and I don't even have a "Complete" folder in my library. I just got this LimeWire software last night... I am really new at this. So I thought maybe I was doing something wrong. But then I came here, and I saw how many people are having the same problem as me. Is there anyone out there who knows how to correct this problem? I was really excited to get this software.... and now I'm a little disappointed that it's not working. I used to have napster and I thought this was like it, but so far it's not working out so great. If anyone can possibly help with this problem, please reply to my post! I have searched all the FAQ's and help things and haven't found any info on this problem. My downloads just simply disappear. I downloaded two last night-- and they completely finished. It said they were "Complete" and 100% done. But then when I turn to my library... there is nothing there. No files anywhere. They aren't even on my computer's hard drive...... I searched the whole thing. Also, it doesn't give me the error message about it not being able to tranfer the file to the library. I read that some people were getting that message. But mine just doesn't appear there at all! I am wondering if maybe it is saving them in another place that I don't know about. Does anyone know about this? If so, could you please tell me where? I am not sure where they could be. I KNOW they are downloaded though, because they were complete and I heard a piece of the song. If anyone can help with this problem, it would be wonderful! If anyone has a solution or suggestion, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thank you very much for your time and for reading this. And good luck to everyone with their problems!! ~Angel  |

 I have gotten the answer everybody! it took me a while but i figured it out. if you are using win. go to the c drive go to search and type in lime wire. then go to a folder click on it then you are able to see incomplete or shared click on shared and there are your songs. It took me a while though so don't feel bad |

| I think one of the important points you seem to be missing is that you have to set up a "share" file. By default, LW 2.4.2 does it as "C\ProgramFiles\Limewire\Shared". ...,,,Check in Limewires "Tools->Options-> Sharing". That should tell you where the shared file is. You can also set one up there if you don't have one. And then just go to THAT folder when you want to see your completed files. |

 IT WORKS!!! YOU GUYS ARE GENIUSES!!!! I tried what you guys were saying-- and it actually worked! My completed songs are there, and they actually work when I play them. Thanks a lot guys! It seems kind of like a "duh" but I would have never figured that out on my own. Thank you very much for your help!!!  ~Angel PS: Does this mean I have to go to this folder whenever I want to hear my completed songs? (and NOT LimeWire itself?) THANKS AGAIN! =) |

 All of them go there????? Hey again. Wait a sec....... one last thing! so how come all the songs that are completed do not go to the "Shared" folder? I wrote on this board earlier...... and that method you guys posted worked for me and I found my songs. But I downloaded a new song yesterday. And then I went into the "Shared" folder to look for it and play it, but it wasn't there.  Is there a specific reason why some of the songs are going into that folder and others aren't? Right now I am trying to re-download it because I thought maybe I did something wrong. Does anyone know why that happens? Ok, thanks again everyone for all the help!!~Angel |

| There is a so called "could not move to library" error that might have occurred if your disk is full or the file name contained illegal characters like a "/". I'd try searching for the file with the explorer if you still know the name. |

| Hi Angel. If you have everything set up correctly, your tunes SHOULD go to your "shared" folder. Although things don't always work as they should. You might want to redownload the song and try again. Or if that doesn't work, redownload LimeWire. Which version are you using? I had a lot of problems with older versions, but have no problems with version 2.4.2. .....Joe |

| PS. I find it easier to just go to the folder itself to play your songs rather than LimeWire. This way you see them all layed out and you have more control as to the player you want to use. I prefer Winamp. |
