cannot move to library
 

I have the same issue, downloading programs, MP3s, and videos. This anomaly happens on my Mac Dual GHz machine, running Mac OS 9.2.2, with many items, both with and without "/". Any assistance would be appreciated.

If you encounter a file whose host computer owner thinks he can write a short novel as a title, then LW for Mac can't download it and you get the "cannot move to library" error. Find the equivalent file with a shorter name.

Is that the same explanation for "cannot move to library" errors on PCs? :confused:

Talking to my finger (Dutch expression)
 

No, Ria, you get the same error message with short titled files, but they DO contain slashes '/'. So is that the real problem?

Yes, that is an "illegal" character and won't download for any version of LW.

library issue
 

I have WinXP with all released patches. I also have installed Java 2 runtime environment. I have had no problems with Limewire until upgrading to 2.54. I have tried to install this release various ways (diiferent drives, different share locations, ETC).

This release has problems and I hope that the developers admit it and fix what ever the bug is!

I aslo found that they delivered some sort of patch into the shared directory. When you go to install it, it provides a very basic description as to what it is - all. What is all? Am I supposed to install software that says all?

Any insight would be appreciated.

i seem to have the same prob with not being able to move songs to the library where you able to figure it out and if so could you help me . Thanks

More cases of cannot move to library error
 

Freiluft, I have the same problem with other files: the title is not too long and doesn't contain a slash. I can't see a common denominator. Are you sure the problem is with the file name?

Can't Move to Library Fix
 

Fixed the problem of getting the can't move to library message. I was running Limewire 5.4.4 on Windows XP. Uninstalled 2.5.4 and installed 2.4.3. I have had no problems since. This is an obvious coding problem in 2.5.

All of the speculation as to how users are sharing is BULL. Why does 2.4.3 work fine????

I suggest a LImewire developer exam the code difference between 2.4.3 abd 2.5.4 and see what changed that may be causing this problem!
