Hey Badboy

Try downloading & using the VLC media player (Its Free) & recommended by us here
at the limewire forums. VLC player has most all of the codec's built into the player &
plays above average quality for music & excellent quality for video files, (It plays most everything)

If you wish, VLC player can be set as the default player for your computer, to do this
In Limewire Library, highlight a file mp3, avi or whatever you wish then click on
explore, in the bottom left corner.
This will take you to the shared folder outside of Limewire, right click on a file,
choose, open with, highlight VLC player, then tick the box to always use this program
to open this type of file. Repeat this action to include all the file types you wish VLC
to be the default player.
USE THIS LINK IN BLUE (download from the nearest mirror site to you)
Http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

P.S. Disable the WMP player from connecting to the web.

Your servant.
Peace.

See page one for Mac settings; ie: posts # 2, 3 & 4.
You may need to reset popups, then change search options 'after' that. Do not tick show licence warning unless you wish to be warned about it.

Keyboard shortcut for Mac OSX preferences is Command (or apple key) & comma at same time: ,
Most but not all OSX programs use this location & shortcut.

After setting to default, then make the other change in settings for searches. See page one again, post #4.

Default Thought it was a licensing issue but unsure.

I can download the songs, but they will not play on the limewire player or Musicmatch. It shows the song is there, but with nothing in the file. Can anyone give me some information what I am doing wrong?

http://www.gnutellaforums.com/171766-post4.html (click on link) Don't have it ticked in your options. Press Apply button afterward. You may need to restart LW after making the change.

Hey, I have a problem. When I received the message about the licensing, I clicked no and now I can't download anything. What do I need to do now? Thank you.
