HOW DO I BURN A CD USING LIMEWIRE?

You can't, Limewire does not have any CD burning software in it.

You will have to use something else like NERO or Roxio.

Ok, that was a good helpful link on how to use nero...
I am pretty much know what I am doing, but I am UNABLE to burn the music downloaded from LW. Apparently I do not have the licences that are supposed to come with the songs...

I am a pro user and paid, so all music I download should come with licences to burn and copy..right?

How do i get LW to take notice that I am a pro paid user, and that it is ok for me to make cd's with what I download from here?

I can download 50 songs...and maybe 1 or 2 I will be able to actually burn and take with me in the car...the other 48 I have to delete and try again...

any suggestions??

I know lots of people have already asked how to burn a cd.
I know this is going to sound like i don't know anything about a computer so please overlook that. I have a cd writer/dvd rom combo. My question is with that can i burn only cd's or can i burn dvd-r's too? is there some thing i am doing wrong or do i simply need different stuff for what i am tring to do which is burn movies to a dvd-r? Also what do i need to convert avi. file to something i can burn? please help!

Hrmm...
It depends on how old it is: the older CD burners could only read DVDs.
You need to check out over the net what it's capabilities are (go to the official site for example)

i love the help but i am a tad bit computer challenged. it is not that i don't try or that i am not capable of figuring it out. My computer is a couple of months old from wal-mart it is a compaq presario with windows 2000xp i think i wrote that info right. i so did not understand the whole info bit i am suppose to look up on the internet though. in all honesty i believe i don't not have the right program or media player to burn dvd-r could be wrong though. when i try to burn to dvd-r it says i have no disc in. All my media players(windvd,realplayer, window media player) i have when i go to burn it says cd burner. does that mean it will not burn to a dvd-r, the media player itself or is it just that my computer isn't capable of burning to dvd-r with my current hardware?

If you have the latest software, then they will normally show whether your burner can burn cd's/dvd's, etc.

Certainly the earlier combo's were just cd burner & dvd player only. Some of the later ones can burn both. But if you bought yours cheaply, then probable chance is you only got a cd burner & dvd reader as Murasame suggested. Just like my partner's computer.

so if the media player says cd burner that means it is a cd burner only?? is that what ur saying? ya i know i should have gotten it by now but u never can be to sure of something u don't fully understand.

that was very clear thankz and disregard my last post. suggestions on how to fix the problem? do i need to buy new hardware and where is the best to buy, i need something that will work but not cost a fortune.
