Unhappy Where are my downloads?

How come I can't find what I've downloaded? According to Sherlock, it's in a folder called "shared" inside of my Limewire folder. But when I go there the folder is empty. The file does show up in the libraries window, but refuses to launch. What's up?

Thanks

Mate, when you find the file. If it is a mp3 file then name the file ???????.mp3
for example if u had ANGEL, name the file and put (.mp3) at the end of the name. This automatically turns the files into quicktime so u can play them then.
For movies it is .mpg, .mov, etc
GOOD LUCK
message me back at (rednut_86@hotmail.com) if u still have problems

Thanks for the reply, but it's a .sit file (ie an app). If I could actually find the file anywhere outside of the Limewire or Sherlock window, I could probably deal with it. But at the moment it's like chasing a ghost.

Default Problem solved!

Somehow there were two LImewire folders on my computer. Only one app, but two folders. I was looking in the wrong one. Don't know how it happened, but problem solved!!

I suggest you run Norton Disk Doctor. I had a major system crash after my iMac starting behaving the way you describe. I would open a folder on the desktop, it would appear empty, I would close it and open it again, and the files would be there. Later, I would try to open it again and it would be empty again. NDD found a lot of problems with the catalog file. I still don't know what caused it, but NDD fixed it.
