i added the items to my shared folder they went red and after 30 seconds the turned black one by one
my problem is how come no one can search for it?
i tried to search for the files from another computer on a different network (files were on my computer in my house----- i was on computer in apartment ----- 2 different places)
does anyone know what to do?
if it helps the files that i downloaded are searchable and they can be uploaded from that computer but the files i added manually are not searchable
btw im using vista if that makes a diffferece and im going throught a very powerful firewall

so is anyone going to be able to help me with my dilemma?

Can't search your own shared files as LW was not designed to download from itself. Why you couldn't find them on another network is a complicated one, since LW can only search a % of the entire gnutella network, otherwise each search would take hours to finish & would slow the gnutella network down. Best way would be to create magnet links, attempt to download those from another network/computer, then see what the status is. How to use Magnet Links & Direct Connect

Sharing iTunes music
 

I dont know how to reply to specific thread - I just pressed"reply to thread" but who's msg am I replying to? Or is it all of them.

Sorry, I am a luddite.

I went into the limewire library window. Under "shared files" it showed all my iTunes music. Does this mean that I am sharing all my iTunes music when i connect to limewire? That is what I want to happen. Can someone confirm?

I just puted my songs in the sharing folder, where the all other songs was.
Does that work?

and just one thing : I got firewall:mad2:

yes that will work.
But you should sort out your firewall problem else people will greatly struggle to download from you ... only a few will be able to.
We need a few more details: System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

1. Windows XP
2.Windows Firewall
3.1022MB RAM
4.200GB
5.wireless
6.Linksys
7.house
8.limewire 4.18.2 , java 1.5.0
9.Tele 2
10.it's stand 'your test worked'
11.Yeah, im sharing the connection with another computer (my brothers laptop)
12.This is my first time I got problems
13.yes, it is a wall in front of the world icon
14.it's UPnP enabled
15.I am using AVG 7.5
16.I live in Norway

this is my information:super:

Make sure your XP firewall is configured to allow LW full access.
Make sure your LW is not using same listening port as the other computer.

Which Linksys model is it?

My firewall allows limewire sharing from internet and that stuff, I checked it.

We dont have the same listening ports...
But we have the same manuel forward ports.

And the linksys modell is : Linksys Wireless G 2,4 GHz, Modell : WRT54G

Anyone who knows what the problem is? :shoot:
