just stupid I guess
 

If I wasn't 87 y/o I could probably figure this out and my 8 y/o neighbors kid has run away.
I came on today (love the limewire) found a song I wanted to put on my mp3 player, got it down loaded and I had my mp3 hooked into my cpu while I was downloading and thought it was going on the mp3 BUT, I cant find it on my player.
The song is sitting in the Library tab. Now how do I get in loaded into the mp3 player..? ?
thanks for any help.

In LW's library click on Saved Files then click Explore...your saved folder will open up for you. Try adding from this folder to your mp3 player (you might be able to just drag & drop):)

stupid
 

thanks a lot I got.
another question. Is there no way to load directly from LW into my mp3 player? I got it loaded by opening the windows media player and draging it into the column to sink....

there may be no way to load from LW directly...

many thanks.

mr G

If you mean when a file's downloading, have it download directly into your player...no, not AFAIK. Things will download to your saved folder (to check it's location in LW go tools > options > saving) & you'll have to add to devices from there.

mr stupid again
 

no actually I meant when its downloaded it goes into my library. Can I not get it to load from my Library into my mp3? Hate to sound so dumb but I really am 87..

many thanks.

Mr. G

You could try dragging the file from the LW library into your player...this may or may not work but give it a try.

Or, if you're using WMP, you could add to WMP by monitoring folders. Then, as you download from LW files will be automatically added to WMP & then you could add to your player from there...it would be pretty simple that way.
Within WMP click on Media Library, then click on the Add button, choose 'by monitoring folders'. When you get the popup box, click Add. Now browse your computer & find your saved folder (by default it's C:\Documents and Settings\your name\Shared) & click ok.
Sorry if you already knew how to do this!

me again
 

know how to do this....Ha!!
I just barely know how to turn my puter on..

thanks for all your help. I'm gonna go mess with this one awhile.
mr g

Try dragging from the library first, see how it goes.
Let us know if things aren't working:)

my problem is that I have No place to drag it in limewire. I need to get my mp3 "loaded" on there somehow. I can drag it to windows media and get it to work but thats like going to my thumb to get to my elbow..
mr.g

Plug your mp3 in, then open My Computer. You'll see your mp3 player as a removable disk. Now open LW & go to your library page. Put your cursor on the left hand edge of the page & drag it across to the right...now you should have both the pages visible, beside each other. Now you can drag from the library page into your player (hope I've explained this ok & not made things worse:o).

You can't plug your player in & have it show up in LW.
