Chris92 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Hey,I'm using a Macbook Air 13" i5. I've successfully been able to download and run BitTorrent, but when I get torrents, they come up as 0 bytes once they go in the torrent.An upload and download speed are both still displayed, oddly enough.Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.-Chris
Harold Feit Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 How long are you waiting?Where are you getting your torrents from?Are they prefixed with "magnet" when you hover over the link in your browser?
Chris92 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 I was going here and I waited 3 minutes.http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/4301390On the website it shows the file size and number of files. When I click it it goes empty and displays no files in the torrent.
Harold Feit Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 The part you click, when you hover over it does it give info about the link?Does that link start with "magnet:"?
Chris92 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Posted January 30, 2013 There was a magnet icon beside the link, but the website is down right now. I'll edit this post after it is back up.PS. Thanks for the quick replies :-)
Harold Feit Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 There was a magnet icon beside the linkThen the behavior you're seeing is a property of them being magnets.
Chris92 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Posted February 2, 2013 Where do I find torrents without magnets? It seems they all have the magnet icon beside them..
