SHADO5 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 utorrent just came out for mac like 2 weeks ago or something. It's a great lightweight client. Also, Vuze it good too. And they're both free Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/140617-good-torrent-programs/#findComment-996361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyguy Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'm using vuze right now, because i really need download shceduling (transmission has inaccurate speeds), but i'd switch to utorrent in you dont need a schedular Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/140617-good-torrent-programs/#findComment-996578 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Hurt Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 utorrent is my foavorite. It was released a couple a weeks ago, and it devs are hard at work updating and improving it very quickly.

MaaseyRacer Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Whenever I run uTorrent when I am DLing certain torrents it crashes Any ideas? Try repairing your disk permissions. If that does not work delete you user cache. Worst case scenario reinstall the app they probably have an update by now.

MaaseyRacer Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Now uTorrent just needs to fix the massive bugs that make the program unusable. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/140617-good-torrent-programs/#findComment-1016195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabooka Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 uTorrent sems to connect to seeds and peers much better than transmission for me . Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/140617-good-torrent-programs/#findComment-1016630 Share on other sites More sharing options...
killswitch911 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 The best one so far for me, is utorrent. And on the mac it looks really nice. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/140617-good-torrent-programs/#findComment-1016752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meowpard Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Best thing to mention for me is that with Transmission I can change the download location and transfer a partcial download without starting downloading from beginning. (does not work in Vuze, former Azureus). Open "preferences/transfers/adding default download location" This might help those who run out of diskspace on the local disk. Just change download location, copy/move uncompleted file there and open the torrent file again and downloading goes ahead.

oinked Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 hi, new here [; i wonder how no one mentioned rtorrent yet... It's by far the most lightweight client out there. CLI only but it's very functional. It's in macports and you should really try it Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/140617-good-torrent-programs/#findComment-1018514 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ongeloof Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 What are some good Torrent DLing programs for Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.3 Just a heads up, they now called "Apps" on OS X ...... in transmition i don't seem to be able to download that fast...i have 24MBps ADSL!!!for specific movie torrents with looooadsss of seeds i onlu connect to like 10 peers and download with 20KBps.....tried changing the peers limit to 999 but still nothing...any ideas??? Try a private tracker. As i think your using TPB. Oh and to do the µTorrent symbol, hold down the Opt+M. Open Keyboard pallet viewer to more special Key combos. SysPrefs>International>Input>Show in Menu Bar. From there, Click your Flag and select Show Keyboard Viewer. Gah, i outdo myself.
