I replied to your post but it disappeared. lol

Not sure why it's happening. Why not update to LW 4.12.6 see improvements: http://www.limewire.com/english/cont..._history.shtml
It might also be an idea to make sure your Java is up to date & delete your LW prefs folder just in case: delete your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)

BTW please don't double-post.

Not sure. Maybe. Is there any reason you need to use the save as option? Why not just change download directories or if the file has the same name as another then use the append function. You can download specific media types into different folders if you wish; (a) See How to Change download location (click on link) (specific for folders) or (b) How to move downloads to new location
