Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. 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.

Unhappy iTunes Integration

no thats not what I mean. On mac versions.. when you download a song in LW it automatically adds it to your itunes library in a playlist called LimeWire. The version of LW that I just bought is supposed to do the same thing for windows but its not as far as I can tell. Im going to request my money back if I cant figure this out soon. I email customer support a while back and they never got back with a real answer.. anything helpful would be great. thanks a lot though for trying.

Hmmm where did you buy LimeWire from. The basic version is free. Check out this link. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=28751

Also what version of LimeWire do you have?

Well a lot of people get scammed was just making sure you were not one of them.

I have been thinking about d/l and installing itunes. I guess now is as good a time as any.

I'll let you know what happens. I have LW pro 4.8.1 also. Shouldn't take long.

Well I just d/l and installed itunes. I set it up according to the tutorial and the post I put the link to before.

I setup 3 different playists in itunes. d/l some music and it appears itunes is working the way it should.

Now I just need to organize my music.

Maybe one of the other members in the forum may be able to help.

The relationship b/w LW & iTunes on a mac compared to windows is different. There is no auto-importing like on a mac. All you get is a LW playlist which is simply a reference to the songs in the LW downld folder (generally called Shared by default.)

So you must use other techniques to actually import the songs into iTunes without it simply being a reference; ie: to physically import the songs into the iTunes Music Library folders.

As you're aware, the easiest is Add. On windows that's Control-O. You can select multiple files at once by holding down the SHIFT key after selecting the 1st one. Coincidentally I'm putting a GiF together about this to add to the above link but haven't quite finished yet. (I need to get rid of the copyright references for show & tell, lol.) But all the same, the windows iTunes tutorial will show this anyway. The above link gives you multiple options.

As far as having the limewire playlist show in iTunes, you need to go to LW's menu Tools>Options>iTunes>Sharing

(Asking for money back? If you're a pro user you get pro mac & windows. lol)

ok so i clicked share my music in LW and when i open itunes i have a playlist that refers to the name i chose. however, in that playlist... it is blank. there arent any songs. and limewire is supposed to integrate with WINDOWS JUST LIKE IT DOES MAC. That was the point of the 4.8.1 VERSION. MAYBE YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT THEIR WEBSITE. If you think there is something else I can do, please please let me know.. but.. i must ask you.. try to be more clear with your posts. in your last post to me, you referenced a link that wasnt even in the forum. and you mention "ADD" i mean.. i dont know what youre even talking about.. thanks
