Hi,
I recently joined here, and I have to tell you, after trying to re-install the upgrade for LW 3 times, I finally un-installed it, then downloaded the latest version of Java, then re-installed LW and it works. Yay!! Now.. I have on small problem. Help someone, anyone? I had the music to go to the desktop\downloaded music folder. Now it won't go to this folder. I know it's simple, but I can't sort it out. Anyone???

Thanks

Hi dancinfeet,

Open LW and go to Tools>Options>Saving, click on browse and navigate to the location of the folder you want your files saved to, then click select>Apply>OK. That should do it.

Hi,
Thanks but that doesn't work. It did when I first had LW, a friend helped me set it up. Now I can't find the music that downloads. I wrote to LW and they told me until I'm used to LW I shouldn't change anything about it. They also said, nobody should store things on the desktop.
I've had LW for about 3 yrs, but only recently bought the PRO, I used the free one before. I liked having it on the desktop. I went to tools, option, sharing about 4 times yesterday and again after your post. It just won't work now. Any other suggestions?
Thanks

Go to Tools>Options>Saving(not sharing)and browse form there.

Instead of downloading your files to your desktop, it would be better to download them to your shared folder, then put a shortcut on your desktop for that folder.

The default location of your shared folder is C:\Documents and Settings\"your account name"\Shared. Find that folder, then right click on it and choose to send it to your desktop(create shortcut).

This may be easy for you, but I cannot make it work. I restored defaults made a shortcut.. Now it says it's going into the library.. Helpppppppppp meeeeeeee

Hello,

I'll try not to post again today. I finally found where my music is downloading to. Into the Limewire library, NOT at all where I intended it to go. I can drag and drop them into folders on the desktop then put in downloaded music but there must be a simpler way. I need 1 2 3 directions but nothing has worked so far. I clicked use defaults, that didn't solve the problem either... I can't find the folder you suggested. What's wrong with me?

What operating system(os) are you using? Windows xp or Vista?

Hi 6_pac,

I'm using Vista Home Premium. LW works great, just no matter what I type in to have my music go to, it goes to LW Library. I'm dealing with it, by drop/draggin to files, but it would be easier if it just went where I wanted it to go.

Thanks

I don't have Vista but these might help:Try these threads:
