Trouble with downloading 'particular' results
 
I have tried to look as extensively on this topic as i could before creating this new thread; so please bear with me if i missed it or misunderstood something.

I had some problems when it came to downloading the right movie (fake files in other words). But a private message tip gave me a simple answer and a sought after file too!; thank you!

Now for the other problem i still have.
When you get many results for music and vids and all given information shows that the file is the right one, it may show there are no users ('#') with the file and then you try downloading it, it may either start downloading with a certain number of users (and it showed no users BUT it was in the results) OR it will say 'more resources needed.'

Why does it show a file which is not available OR a file showing no users but it downloads?

I believe this goes beyond the topic answer that when there are no more users to download from 'more resources needed' is shown.

many thanx in advance.

If there's only one source for a file, or if the search only returns one source, there won't be a number under the # column. Also when you do a search you don't connect to every user on the network.

So if you find a file you want, double click it to start it d/ling then right click it and search for the exact file name you just started d/loading. This will help bring up sources that your original search didn't find.

There are different ways to find the files you want and to find more sources for files. This thread has a lot of good tips in it: How to find music.

We are limited in the advice we can give and still be within the forum rules reguarding copyright laws. Suffice it to say that the files are out there, you just got to find them ;).
