Help - First time user
 

Hello, could someone help, this is my first time using any type of downloading program. Can you listen to the songs before you download them? How do you do that? I would appreciate any kind of advise or tips that would be helpful. Hopefully this is the right place to ask for help - if not could you tell me where is? Thanks alot

:confused:

this is what i do
 

this is what i do sometimes...

first i pick the song i want to download and wait for it to download to 30% (or whatever you want) then i double click the song you are downloading to preview the song. The more you wait for it to download the more you can preview. You can always stop your download also.

hi welcome. I posted this in the MacOSX forum this morning, and it is possible you could have searched for "preview" and found the thread. I shall no doubt be told off for repeating it here, but in helping a newcomer, I shall, I trust be excused.

""You can download a small part of a song and preview that. But no, not with out downloading.[you can preview the incomplete file while it continues to download, or you can put it on pause].
If you then decide you don't want it kill the download and delete the incomplete file from the limewire library.

(Be very careful what you delete from the Limewire Library) ....that's another story.

I advise unchecking the use limewire player in preferences, and using iTunes [or other player] as IMHO if you hear a preview in Limewire you will not want to continue the download, because it will sound rough as old boots..... well that's my experience only :-)""

The "other story" refers to the File tab in the Limewire Library. I use macOSX and Windoze may be different. With this menu you can chose to share or remove from share your files. Do NOT select "delete file", as this will delete the file entirely from your harddrive and you will not be a happy newcomer.

Hope that helps
