Pepper57 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hello, I usually used Bittorrent and use only two main sites, I won't mention incase that's not allowed here. But I use to be able to download, but now one site doesn't have the download links and now says "To download this torrent, you need a BitTorrent client: Bitlord" And then the other site I use, lets me hit the download link but then says "Unable to add Torrent: It appears that the torrent file is corrupted. Try to download it again." And I do, and it's the same process over and over. Can anyone help me out here? I haven't changed a thing aside from updating to Yosemite.

Harold Feit Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 There are some issues being worked on with magnet links on mac that may be causing your issue. Do torrents from http://slackware.com/getslack/torrents.php work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper57 Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 I'm not sure how that program works? Sorry, but would you be able to explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Just try downloading them. If they download, it's the problem I think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper57 Posted November 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Yeah it got onto utorrent, but there were no seeds to download it. So that's farther that other torrent files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Then you have something else interfering. You may need to uninstall, remove all settings and reinstall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper57 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 I've done that too, and even tried two different programs and it's doing the same thing :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodden222 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 I also have been experiencing similar issues. Just as with Pepper57, I typically have two sites that I download torrents from on a regular basis. Then all of the sudden, last week, I could download the torrent but not the file. I have even upgraded to BitTorrent Plus, I was able to download a few more files then nothing. In the past, I could download a file in less than 10 minutes but now, I may be lucky to download a 10th of a file in two days. It is not my connection, I have also tried other sites with no joy.

Bodden222 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Found the problem to be my router. After I cycled the power to the router, all torrent download activities returned to normal. Learn something new everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper57 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Hmm, I'll give this a try, thanks for reporting back. I'll post if it works/doesn't work for me when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devora Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I have BittorrentPlus and my downloads came to a complete stop right in the middle of downloading. They were working then within 24 hours none of them, they all just stopped. They won't upload or download ... strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
