This "need more sources" problem that lots are getting
I have tried every single fix that was listed for this problem. I'm not behind a firewall, I can download songs from limewire, but then certain songs will not download. I'm not downloading fake songs, I have tried downloading from less than 30 hosts before..no go.
I work for my ISP, we do not block any ports that limewire run off of. I have seen countless people with this problem and no fix.

I have tried this on about 4 different songs that I have ran across and another person. I have tried to download every single copy of each song and they all come back with the same results "need more sources" I have tried to download about 100 versions of all combined songs. I doubt that every version from a 3 week span are fake files.

How many incomplete files do you have ??
If you have a large amount this can sometimes cause problems.... Try clearing some of them out and try the file again... I'm not saying this is a fix, but worth a try...

Been there, done that. That was the first thing I tried actually. Doesnt help the "need more sources" problem though.
I did get one song to finally download after 4 weeks of trying. I right clicked on the search tab of the song, went to "search more" then get more results. I got a new result of over 127 people with the song and it downloaded. So for anyone having this problem I'm gonna try it on the other songs to see if that helped. So you dont get the run around on this problem from reading 30+ FAQs.
