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.

Default Importing a cd created in Limwire

I can't load my dowloads into Itunes any longer (Itune 8.0)

Can I burn a cd (in Limewire) of my Limewire downloads and then import the cd to my Itunes so that I can upload to my Ipod?

Check out this thread: How to transfer music to my iPod (& iTunes)
There are a few different ways to transfer files to iTunes How did you move files in the past? Some people have found that dragging & dropping into iTunes doesn't work. Try adding files from LW's saved folder instead... I've never had a problem doing it that way.

You can't burn a CD in LW - LW won't burn CDs. You could burn a CD of your LW downloads using burning software & import that into iTunes, but I think it's much easier to find a way to add files from LW to iTunes & then transfer to your iPod

I presume you had intended to burn mp3's to CD audio format, then extract them as mp3's. That would mean reconversion back to mp3 which would mean a loss of quality. mp3's should never be reconverted to mp3 again. Converting to mp3 format process means some of the information is thrown away which helps the file reduce in size. How full is a glass of water if some has been poured out before you get it & then you throw more out. lol

But forgetting that, once the music files have been 'properly' added to iTunes they will be available for iPod. Ignore the LW playlists you see, they are not compatible with iPod, & those files have not been added to iTunes Music Library. Of course you can add songs to iPod via synching playlists you have created (not LW ones), or via manually adding songs to iPod (see tutorial how to manually update iPod.)

Default Transferring LW downloads to Itunes

I'm reading two different things here. One says you can't transfer any longer from LW to Itunes and you are saying you have no trouble doing it.

I've tried doing the transfer as recommended but nothing I do will allow me to transfer, which is why I asked about the CD possibility.

What are you , Birdy, doing?

You misunderstood Birdy. She meant you cannot drag from the LimeWire Library window. You can however drag & drop from the LW Saved or Shared folders onto the iTunes Library icon at the very top of the playlists. Did you read the link she gave you? It's all explained there how to do.

It not only has descriptions & image samples, but also video tutorial links.

I cannot drag and drop from the Shared or the Saved folders any LW tunes. I tried this before I posted, after I read the archives and saw the tutorial mentioned.

I'll try it again in case I missed something but I'm not hopeful.


Was that tutorial for pre 8.0 ITunes programs?

Thank you both for you prompt repsonses.

Default Successs

I repeated the instructions and instead of trying to move individual tunes
I moved the entire Saved folder. That seemed to workd but I'll know better when I try and upload them to the IPod

Thanks again.

There is a link directly to Apple's iTunes 8 tutorial also. Did you see that?
The basics in iTunes have never changed. Main changes have been they've added little extras. Even if you were seeing iTunes v.1 tutorial, it would apply to now. I've used every version since version 2.

Drag & drop works for me now from any where on my computer I have audio files. Not sure why it is not working for you. Works exactly as those sample images show.

I put all of my music on a separate drive. I then drag them into itunes. 99% of the files work this way. Occasionally a title needs to be shortened though.
