Default Lime wire wont download some things.

I want to download somthing so i click on it to download. It says there are 88# of what i want to download but when i start downloading it it says that i need more sources. Then i click find more sources and it eventually says awaiting sources so i click resume. Then it starts to connect and then just goes back to saying awaiting sourses. Also i am a mac and what codecs are some of the movies made in cause when i download some of the movies and it says quicktime doesnt have the neccisary components to play this. What do i do?

A lot of video files are fakes. They will not download atall. If you control/click on a file in search > advanced you will see look up with Bitzi. This will take you to the Bitzi web site and you can see if there is a review for the quality of the file. Go for files with something like 20 sourses would be good advise.

Codec advice is available here, http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=40665 but a player which does not require codecs is VLC available from http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ Some Mac users also use "MPlayer"
