These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 I've also had this problem with LW, so what you should do is play your songs with iTunes. What you need to do is got to preferences->sharing in LW and check which folder is your 'shared' folder. Navigate to that folder and put all the music that you want in your iTunes library inside a new folder. Now open iTunes and select file->add to library. Now choose the folder with all your mp3's and you're good to go. |

| Kind as I am :-), I went upstairs to my 'old ibook, booted up in OS 9 and downloaded LW. The thing is, when I installed it (even though I chose English) it was in norwegian. So I'm not exactly sure, but under the 'tools' menu choose options (or whatever is the first thing) Voila, the preferences. |

| I'm glad you fixed it klairejay  It kinda sucks that the people who make LW can't fix a bug in the app (probably), and can't even answer people when they want help with it though. Well I guess that's what the forums are for. BTW, thanks in norwegian is 'takk' |

| klairejay Wow! your are really having your share of difficulties. May I try to ease the burden? 1st - when you installed LW - you may or may not have told it where to put the files in the right place. Lets assume you did. To "find" ANYTHING" ON A MAC IS A BREEZE. Everyone is talking to you about the shared folder. Okay! Your shared folder in LW should be: desktop>system folder>preferences>shared(folder)> - find your file If they are not completely downloaded then you go from the preferences>(folder)>Incomplete Sometimes, when I install I like to put those two files in the LW folder itself -- your choice. Nevertheless, if you cannot find what you are looking for. - go to the finder --- Apple(command) "F" your sherlock will search whatever drive you tell it to. Enter the name of the file, folder, anything - if its on your hard drive, it will find it. Further - on the lower half of the sherlock, it will show you all the folders you need to go through till you can manually pull out the file. Finally, If you ONLY have iTunes as a player, that will be your default player. You will have QuickTime though that will pay the file for you. Suggest yopu download a Media Player of some sort. i.e. RealPlayer, Destiny Media Player, just to name a few. Place your MP3's in a folder and you can Drag n' Drop till the cows come home. Good Luck GRAPHICA |
