Default i have no .bak or .dat file

Hi,
i have been using LW for years now and have recently upgraded to the latest version.

Since my ug i no longer have a .bak or .dat file.
i have never prevously encountered any issues with LW but i cannot now temporarliy move my incomplete downloads as when i do this and then return the incomplete files the donloads start from scratch.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

I have looked aroung the forums and net and cannot fine any resolution.

If i cannot resolve this then does anyone know where i cn file the .dmg install file for a previous version?

I am running on mac os x tiger.

Thanks in advance.

Yah, that used to be a good trick to save some pesky incompletes, but now downloads.dat is stored in the ~/Library/Preferences/Limewire folder.

I also see a Library.dat file . . . perhaps the two are related. No sign of downloads.dat any more, so perhaps it has been deprecated.

For a definitive answer, you could ask in the developers' forum at LimeWire Forums

thanks for that.
i see the files you mention.
Would anyone know what files i would need to move along with the incomplete files themselves so that i may return to those incom files at a later time?
