I am having major problems downloading my songs to my itune player.I have just upgraded,and have never had this problem before untill now.Before I used to just download the songs by just clicking on the song title and it would move straight to the itunes,so I can listen to them. I have re-installed limewire about 6 times now,and have also noticed that I am not getting the mp3 icon that you mentioned in previous notes when the song has being downloaded. Please help me as I am about to give up!!!!!

go to the edit menu and in preferences make it you defaULT PLAYER

I was spoiled with the older version of Limewire. I'm running on Mac OS 9.2 and I used to click on the 'Launch' button or just double click on mp3s, mpgs, whatever and my default players, itunes or quicktime, would start. Now, on LW 2.2.4 when I do this nothing happens. Sure I can get around it by opening the player first, converting the files through the player app but it seems like a whole lot of extra steps I didn't have to take before.
Also, I'm not sure if this by design but there is no Limewire player in options listed under tools, nor is a player option reflected under the library tab. Is this a Mac specific thing or is a re-install recommended here?

Go to iTunes... Open preferences in the EDIT menu... Click the GENERAL tab... Under "Internet" go to: Use iTunes for internet music playback... Click on SET... Click OK to exit..... DONE!!!!

I just downloaded Limeware 2.3 Pro and now find I can't play mp3 files from within the application. I have an I Mac, running 9.2 on DSL. I did as you suggested on I tunes and it says it's set as default player. But I can't seem to get it to play new downloaded. How do I select the default player within Limewire. There doesn't seem to be an option for this. Thanks...

Seems like a lot of people have a problem. We´ve done that!!!
Help !!!

Go to the Apple Menu and select Control Panels. See if you see anything called File Exchange. If you do, open that. You'll see a window where you can choose which application opens which type of files. Scroll down to mp3 (or hit the M key to get there much quicker). Highlight the application, and select your preferred player.
