please
 

Will someone please help me? I am stuck and don't know what to do. Yes I am 24 and no I have never downloaded. Please don't hold that against me and help me.

What software are you using? Limewire?

Did you find the search buttons on the left hand side?

I have only had limewire for 24 hours, but have had no trouble downloading tons of stuff.

Type in what you want to find in the search box. Make it as short as possible. eg: beetles - let it do Then press search button. After the results come in, if it's audio only you want then press the audio filter to the left so it only shows audio search results. Then choose which one you want. Recommended are higher bit rates because they will have better audio quality. And for better chances of a successful downld, choose one that has 4 stars which represents your chances of a healthy connection, & also those with many hosts under the # column which represents how many people your search was able to find with that identical file. This will mean a better chance of a continuous & fast downld. See the following link & follow “ALL” the off-shoot links to find hints & extra skills to help solve your problem: To continue files downlding (click on link)

After your downld has reached 100%, LW will move it from the incomplete folder to your downld folder which by default is usually called 'Shared'. Go to your Library window (press the library tab), then select Saved Files & you will find your downlded file listed. To access it: Go to your LW Library window, select Saved Files folder & press the Explore button. Sample image here: Using Library Explore button to access downld folder (click on link)

BTW By default, your downld folder is located here: C:\Documents and Settings\"your account name"\Shared

Most questions asked on this forum have been asked before, so if you use the search button above, I'm sure you'll find answers to future questions. Also, most commonly asked questions are answered in the Stickies which are found at the top of each section of the forum.

thank you
 

I do select on the audio button and I do type things into the search columns. The main problem that I am having is that everything that I am trying to download says that there is no license for that song. Everyone is like that. How do I find songs that have a license so I will not get into any trouble? Thank you again, Mandy

See License requirement (click on link) & within your search options, under Tools>Options>Searching>Basic & set it as suggested so it doesn't affect you. ie: point # (2)
