I'm new to this whole thing, and I have 1 big problem...
 

Please, if anyone could help me, I'd really appreciate it. I just started using Limewire today, and everything was fine--I was uploading songs and they appeared on my Itunes as well as my Limewire library, but I left this evening with Limewire open to upload files and when I returned I noticed my Shared playlist in my Itunes AND my shared folder where they are supposed to be saved on my computer were empty,and all the songs in my Limewire library were highlighted in RED. The songs still play fine, but I don't know why they are colored and why they are not in my Itunes anymore!! Can someone please help me with this. I hope this is a simple question with a simple answer and can be resolved easily. I'd appreciate anyone who can help me.

Thanks, Christina

Also: I want to reinstall Limewire onto my computer. Does anyone know if I uninstall the program and then reinstall it, if I will lose all my files, or if it will recognize the computer I am on and automatically restore all my files? Is there a reinstall or fix-it download I can use instead of entirely uninstalling Limewire? Should I perhaps just re-download Limewire, and see if that will just override the previous version I have now? Thank you.

When files turn Red it just means that there not being shared, if you right click on the files you will see the option to start sharing them, hopefully they will then turn back up in itunes (i'm not to sure why they dissapeared from there)...

Just download LW again it will automatically over ride the previous version and you wont loose your files...OR....
You can unistall LW without losing your files as well, but make sure you use the LW unistaller which is found in your Start > All Programs > Limewire...
Dont unistall it from your Add/Remove programs....
