Download Troubles
 

Hi there. I have a problem with all of my audio downloads.
It will show that it is downloading the song, go all the way through,
and when I play it back it has the first 3 seconds of the song, and will repeat it over and over again. It will download the size that it is supposed to be at 15k or 5k or whatever and play the repeat for 2 mins or 12 mins or whatever. Anyone have any ideas?
I am using Pro 4.12.11
windows xp professional service pack 2
Pentium 4 3.20 GHz
2 GB Ram
Cable

What exact sizes are the files ??? Does it happen with all of your files ???

Audio
 

Happens with all of the Audio. I haven't tried to download anything else.

Sizes: 2,038kb 5,226kb 3,231kb etc. It shows that I have Turbo-Charged Connection

Which player are you using ??
If it's the limewire player that could explain it, it can be very unreliable at times...
Try using a third party player like itunes or WMP...
To make one of these your default player...

To disable LW player go to Tools > Options > Player and untick the box and select apply...

Go to your shared folder (outside of Limewire) you will find this folder by clicking on one of your files in your LW library and clicking explore...

Right click on one of your MP3 files
Select open with
Select choose program
select your player
and tick the box that says always use this program to open this file type
Select OK

Tried that all ready
 

Still isn't working, it plays the first 3 seconds or so over and over again

Where are you trying to do this from Home, School, Work ??
