Hi there,

This could be because your internet is dropping it's connection for a moment and the download management software that you are using does not support Resume Capability. I recommend that you download a program called Free Download Manager (FDM) which supports this feature as well acts as a download accelerator. You can download it by clicking the following link: Free Download Manager

Now that you have Free Download Manager you can try and download Limewire from a torrent or a different location. Here are some links that you can try:
1 - Limewire 5.4.6 (Official Download)
2 - Limewire 5.2.13 (Unofficial Download)
3 - Limewire 5.4.6 (Unofficial Download)
4 - Limewire 4.18.8 (Unofficial Download)

If none of the above downloads work, i recommend that you try using a program that i personally use called Frostwire which has the exact look and feel as well as the same functionality as Limewire. You can download it by clicking the following link: Frostwire (Official Download)

Thank you for using FixYa! Have a nice day and please remember to rate this solution.

Kind regards,
BearWeb

How to put limewire songs and videos on iPod iPhone

Here comes the Christmas, you may get an iPod or an iPhone. And you want to know where to download free songs and videos for your iPod or iPhone. Limewire is the most popular place to get what you need. And this step by step guide will teach you how to download and put Limewire free songs and videos on iPod iPhone.
Part1. How to put Limewire songs on iPod

Step1. You need to download and install Limewire at first. ( Here is the limewire download link ). We take the Basic version as example in this guide. Then run the Limewire. Type in a keyword (such as Michael Jackson) in the search bar, and then wait a few seconds, Limewire will return a lot of michael jackson related download link results.

Step2. Click the download link, then Limewire will start the downloading process. (Tips: higher number will lead faster download speed). Once the download process is finished, Limewire will automatically add the downloaded songs into your iTunes library (if you have installed iTunes), then you can plug in your iPod or iPhone to computer and sync it with iTunes, done.

If the Limewire song doesn?t load into your iTunes automatically, you can click Tools -> Options to open the panel, click "Configure" and set it as follow:

Part2. How to put Limewire videos on iPod and iPhone

Step1. Download video is the same as audio. Type in the keyword (such as twilight), Go to ?video? categories, find the file you want, click the link to start to download it.

Step2. After the download process was finished, located the limewire video file on your computer, limewire default save folder is "C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsLimeWireSaved".
iPod and iPhone both support only MP4 video, if your download file is already mp4 video, you can drag it into iTunes library and sync it to your iPod or iPhone directly.
But most Limewire video files are MPEG or AVI. You can use this Limewire Video Converter to convert them to iPod compatible MP4 video. I tried many video converters, and this one works best with Limewire video. It?s compatible with Windows 7 and 64 bits system. You can learn more information about it by referring to this review . Drag the video into the limewire video converter, set the profile to "iPod Video MPEG-4(*.mp4)", click start to begin the conversion.

It will take a few minutes to finish the conversion. Then drags the converted MP4 video into your iTunes library and sync the Limewire video to your iPod or iPhone, this video converter build-in an iPod transfer. You can use it to upload Limewire songs or videos to iPod if you don?t want to use iTunes. That?s all.?Enjoy my guide on putting Limewire songs and videos on iPod, Merry Christmas.

Cant transfer limewire music from my computer to my mp3

You can't use Limewire directly to transfer songs to the Nextar. You will need to transfer the songs to the Nextar using Windows Media Player. Limewire puts the songs in a folder called "Limewire Downloads" usually. You will need to open Windows Media Player, run the mouse over the "Library" tab, and select "Add to Library." Once the window pops up you will need to add the folder called "Limewire Downloads" - it may take several minutes, but Windows Media Player is going to add all of those Limewire downloads to its own library. Then, you can use Windows Media Player to transfer the songs to the Nextar.

How to put limewire songs to my mp3 without having to download anything

You will not need to download anything to Transfer Mp3s from Limewire to this Player. The songs you downloaded from Limewire should be in a folder somewhere. When you set up Limewire you created this folder or used the default folder they provided. Just connect your Mp3 player to your computer. Your computer should recognize it as a drive and Appear in "My Computer". Double click on the Mp3 player icon in My Computer. This will open up the player. Then with the player and the Limewire folder open just drag the Mp3s onto your Player. You can also use this little player as a USB storage device to store other files. If this did not help you please post a follow up comment and I am sure I can help you.
