Lost Audio Files
 
Hello Ironhorse 666,

Thanks for your response, I don't seem to be able to find this EXPLORE button you suggested I push!! I use Microsoft, I attempted this a few weeks ago, just simply searching in the Limewire folder on My Computer and it was empty, I downloaded some songs the other night to attempt to start over, and when I go into the Library option on Limewire today and check for my Saved Files, it's empty again!! so I have to wonder if there is an issue with this Limewire and I can't find my music since I know I saved over 20 songs on Thursday. I hope they are still there just hidden somewhere...

So I have to ask again do I go to My Computer to find this Program Files you mentioned? where exactly do I find this Program Files? Once I get that I hope I am good to go, I can't remember all the music I had saved it was about 200 songs, I will be screwed if I can't retrieve them.

your steps are clear but I just can't find the options you suggested.

HELP!!!

Hi Ironhorse 666

One more thing I forgot to mention, when I go into the Incomplete File on Limewire that shows the downloads that didn't complete, there are a bunch of files in it of songs that didnt fully download, hopefully that means that my completed files are somewhere hidden in my computer, since those files didnt' seem to get deleted.

Thanks.

hi treena sorry i did not explain properly how to find your files so i will try and guide you through it again. start by pressing the start button on your screen bottom left onit it will give you all the programs on your computer look left of the programs and you should see the word computer. click on this and the screen should appear showing all the drives on your computer your local drive should be c it will tell you the size of it and how much space you have left on it. click on this then right click on your mouse. a dialoge box appears and it gives you options one is explore click on this another screen appears find the word computer click on this and a bunch of files appear look for program files click on this and limewire should appear when you click on limewire it will give options .saved/shared/incomplete click on these and right on your mouse a dialoge box appears press explore and it will open giving you a list of all the files in the selected folder if this doesnt work follow the instructions instead of going to computer go to documents instead hope i explained this a bit more clearly hope this was helpfull c u soon let me know how u got on

Hello Ironhorse 666

Those are great instructions, I am at work now, so I can't try it out, I will do that tonight when I get home and pray that it works for me!! I am computer literate up to a certain point but when disaster hits, I'm usless!!

I will keep you poted.

Much Thanks.
