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.

I am having a similar problem, but I want to add video from Limewire on to my video ipod. I am able to transfer the video files from Limewire into itunes, but once I try and update my ipod I get a message which says I can't copy these file onto the ipod because they can't be played. Is there a way that I can put these videos on my ipod?

iTunes cannot open mp3Pro files, or ogg vorbis. If you're using Mac OS, then you can get a plug-in to allow importing of Ogg files. Also if you're using mac OS, you can get another program to convert mp3pro to aiff. Then import into iTunes & convert to apple lossless.

I NEED THE ULTIMATE BRAIN TO HELP A VERY CONFUSED AND LOST ME OUT!!

IM IN NEED OF A SERIOUS HOW-TO WALK THROUGH POSSIBLY EVEN THROUGH EMAIL OR AIM B/C IM THAT LOST!!!

Ok i have a apple ipod 5th generation 30gb.Iam trying and been trying (for literally the last 7 hours) to transfer my songs from limewire to my ipod.NOW i know you must transfer them to itunes first i did that. Ive also clicked file>add folder to library and got all my songs from my limewire onto itunes. BUT it goes into this category called SHARED under the DEVICES category and above the PLAYLISTS category. It says DEVICES and under it says OWNERS LIMEWIRE and when you click there it lists all my songs and you can play them etc. BUT you cannot drag them to anywhere on te left side.

IVE ALSO went to file>add music file then trying to just drag my limewire files into the library category on itunes and that didnt work!!

I went to advanced and click consolidate library thinking maybe that would help but i belive that did nothing but i dont even know.

AND YES i have it clicked under edit>prefrences to have files copied to itunes when adding to library

I disabled limewire as my default player and made itunes my default player.

I did all this checking of the boxes though AFTER i had added my limewire file of songs to itunes so should maybe i delete the folder then do it again?

I also read you should make a playlist on limewire then you can just add that to your itunes and its easier but i dont even know how to make a playlist on limewire

PLEASE HELP ME IF YOU CAN!!

If you had looked at any of the threads that you posted on to....you would've been able to find your answers. Rather than posting the same thing through the forum SEVEN BLOODY TIMES.


Please read the Forum Rules

Hint: Look at the post just above yours. Read the link left by LOTR. It has all the info to help you, for both music & video.
If you're stuck, post back just once please.

Open up Limewire. Go to the library highlight the folder containing your files, then press explore.

Now close Limewire but not the folder that opened. Open up iTunes and then drag the files from the folder to iTunes.

Where are you having trouble...are files going to the iTunes library but not to the iPod, or are they not going to the iTunes library? Or are some files transferring, but not others?

Are you dragging & dropping, or using file > add to library? Have you tried both ways?

Do you have your iPod set for automatic or manual updates?

I'm sure you're frustrated & sometimes iTunes & iPods can be a pain. The reason that I yelled at you before was that you posted way too many times & it was a pain having to go & delete all those extra posts.

BTW since the apple site has rather unconveniently removed their video tutorials, since I had a few on my computer I have posted links to them in the thread you can access thru the link in post #4 above. Also posted a video tutorial by rkapsi who is now one of the LW devs. That one shows multiple techniques of adding files from LW to iTunes.
