Unhappy saving music file to nominated folder in Limewire

I would like to change the storage of downloaded music file from the default (limewire) to one I will nominate. I can only see in tools/options where you can determine the folder for saving files. When I use the Save As option it takes me to the default location and I cannot change this despite it opens a Save Playlist As etc.
Any clues anyone please?

Go to Tools > Options > Saving, click the Browse button & direct LW to which folder you wish to download to. Simple as that. (If you are on Vista & Mac OSX then you must have system permissions to be able to use that folder directory.)

See How to Change download location (click on link)

Default

Thanks L of the Rs I perhaps did not make myself very clear. I want to be able to nominate the playlist folder the file is loaded to when using the save as option.

Sorry for the lack of clarity

Regards

Unhappy

I can load the downloaded tunes into ITunes, but it is not easy. The main problem I see is Limewire. The save as option always defaults to "Limewire/etc/ which is not helpful as ITunes is not within Limewire. It would be nice to be able to set a new user nominated location (eg. the ITunes folder) that would help everyone.
Am I right?

Oh ... yes it does default. But that file can be opened by iTunes all the same. Go to iTunes File menu -> Library -> Import playlist.
