Unhappy moving to iTunes (in English please?)

#1. I too, am having trouble moving newly dwnloaded songs from limewire to iTunes. I hit the "Launch" button, sometimes I must keep clicking for the longest time before it launches, and at times it will never move! and if I try to launch more than one song at a time, sometimes it works and sometimes only one song will move.

#2. Also, please tell me if it is possible to "Launch" from the LW Library to iTunes, as i have several songs in that, that should be in my iTunes!
and
#3. who do I talk to about a window that keeps popping up saying that I need to "copy and send" but I can't copy and paste it to email it, and the message is wayyyyyyyyy toooooo long to retype, it's crazy!
"Limewire version3.4.7Projavversion1.1.8fromAppleComputer,In c.MacOSV.9.2.1onpowerPCFREE/totalmemory17339652/22413312java..... etc it goes on and on...

any help is GREATLY appriciated,
I am having such trouble with this new LW, not as easy as the old, I really am frustrated!
Iam sorry this is so long, but I am new to this!
Thank you for your time!

Bien, are you sure you don't want to follow french courses? I know every1 can't be perfect....

1) you are on os9, maybe the slowdown is caused because of a lack of memory do apple-i command on the limewire app (the one with the icon in the folder) and increase the amount of memory (I can't tell you the best settings, I've been away from os 9 since 2001.) Another thing is to download an older LW at www3.limewire.com/download/

2) yes it is possible in os x, and should be possible in os 9 (go in the library double click on the song or click on launch, you might have to disable the LW player in the preferences (options?). If it doesn't work open your download folder listed in preferences-saving- to see where it is located. Open iTunes, and drag and drop the download folder there, songs should appear and be playable.

3) they are bug reports that you can copy to send in email to the LW staff so they can take out the bugs (if that bothers you close the pop up windows)

Bonne chance

A little off-topic, but for future reference if one takes:

1) partager tes morceaux importés dans iTunes:
-va dans les préférences du menu limewire (sous os 9 je crois que c'est dans le menu outils - options-). Dans les préférences, tu devrais avoir la ligne de texte "partages" ou sharing en anglais. Clique dessus et tu peux sélectionner la hiérarchie menant au dossier iTunes où sont contenus tes morceaux. Ex: dans ultilisateurs-moi-musique-iTunes (sous os x) Tu pèses sur le bouton appliquer et LW devrait partager tes fichiers par la suite (il va prendre la mesure des fichiers, ce qui prendra un certain temps, mais une fois faite, les données de la mesure seront conservés).

from the other iTunes/Limewire thread and feeds it into

http://world.altavista.com/

one gets:

1) to share your pieces imported in iTunes: - goes in the preferences of the menu limewire (under bone 9 I believe that it is in small the tools - options -). In the preferences, you should have the line of text "divisions" or English sharing. Click above and you can select the hierarchy leading to the file iTunes where your pieces are contained. Ex: in ultilisateurs-me-music-iTunes (under bone X) You weigh on the button to apply and LW should divide your files thereafter (it will take the measurement of the files, which will take a certain time, but made once, the data of measurement will be preserved).

Not perfect, but perhaps serviceable enough to be useful.

Just an FYI.
