Mac Torrent Questions

[honeydip]

Ok so first of all, I just recently got a mac and downloaded BitTorrent on it. I got some torrents off google or whatever (just searched what i wanted and then downloaded them) and got them into BitTorrent. For some strange reason, FCE and photoshop, which were at around 40% in BitTorrent, did something wierd and said they couldn't be completed or whatever. Can somebody tell me what's wrong? Or give me another method of doing torrents. Thanks

[no_steeze]

[AMD_5]

agreed

 

[PhaedeD]

ya true you gotta pick good torrents man

 

[Balto]

[el_chupacabra]

[Goku]

ive never used anything except usenet, but im trying transmission right now, first ever torrent, so im kinda nervous

 

[summersover]

OMG asian allen is alive people!

 

[honeydip]

Okay so I got transmission and it was just so fucking simple to work it and stuff.I'd recommend it.

 

[no_steeze]

on a side note, are you gonna go to mhssc again gordon?

 

[mmallender.]

[Ben.]

transmission is awesome. super low profile too, no unnecessary crap

 

[Goku]

the only thing i dont like about torrents is thaeyre so freakin slow

 

[Oli_jgb]

I use Vuze (azureus) and Piratebay.org

 

[comeatmebro]

not really?

 

[davyjones]

what's a torrent?

 

[hartig]

obviously you dont know how to pick a good torrent.. or you didnt forward your ports.. or you just suck

torrents are really fast

 

[Goku]

idk how to do any of that, like i said this is my first torrent, i usually use usenet

 

[k-rob]

depending. so many people these days just leech and leech and leech and never fucking seed. it took me over a month to download the matrix trilogy in 720p because the seeders never hit over 50 kbps. so then i seeded it for a month at 60 kbps (like a good pirate does).

 

[Goku]

so how do i download faster?

 

[k-rob]

find the torrent with the most seeders. the more seeders, the faster the download will be. sometimes the best isn't good enough though, case in point the 720p matrix trilogy i downloaded.

 

[Goku]

alright. and hartig mentioned forwarding ports, how do i do that?

 

[Microcosm]

torrents most definitely do not suck. I've hit 1 mb/s before. a few minutes for a 320kbps album is not a long time. (all legal music, mind you..)

 

[Goku]

this is what im at right now, ive been downloading since midnight, im really not sold on torrents, id rather be using usenet but im out of credit

 

[Squishmitten]

uTorrent on mac is the best i have used.. and i havent had any problems with it.

 

[PhilboydStudge]

yeah i use it and it works really well.
instead of making a new thread, i thought i'd bump this one. my reason is that i was wondering if anyone could find me a torrent for final cut studio, or help me run it. i've tried a few already, but when i try to open the .dmg files, it says "the following disk image failed to mount." I'm on a mac, and help would be greatly appreciated

 

[Drop~The~Disk]

Dude download uTorrent as a torrent downloader and then download ur torrents right off something like The pirate Bay or Demonoid and your set. make sure u seed or im gonna personally come to ur house and eat all your food. It so simple.

 

[PhilboydStudge]

learn to read

i bumped this thread from three months ago asking for a specific torrent, for final cut studio/pro. ya dig?

 

[PhilboydStudge]

bump, i'll just make a new thread tomorrow if i have to
