The new icon badge showing the number of completed torrents in the dock is a welcome addition!
No more need to bring uTorrent in foreground to check if some download has completed.

This program works unless you quit and restart. If you quit for any reason it cannot re-establish downloads and everything is lost. Frickin retarded! You can have 99.99% of a download or 1% it doesn't matter it cannot re-establish the torrent and continue. This problem does not occur with BitTorrent or nay other torrent clients. This renders this program useless. The inability to resume a torrent is ridiculous. This has occurred on several computers under both 10.5 and 10.6 and multiple versions of this program. I don't know why it cannot do this but I won't be using it ever again.

It crashes randomly on my Macbook Air.
I can highly recommend Transmission. Never failed on me.

Has sometimes some problems with Quitting; it just won't quit. Besides that this is the fastest and best torrent-client out here for the mac;

I used this forever and loved it until Hulu and Netflix and On Demand has made it less essential. When I lived in Berlin, it was the only way I could keep up with US TV. It is the best, IMHO.

uTorrent has come a long way in recent months, it has taken Transmission's place on my Leopard PowerBook. If they add blacklilst support it might replace Transmission on my Snow Leo Mac Pro too.

It has! Just put a blocklist-database into ~/Application Support/Transmission/ and name it "ipfilter.dat. After launching uTorrent press CMD-2 to see uTorrent's Log: if it has loaded the filters it will show it here (and how many IP's)
But where to get the database?
I use the old one from bluetack. Good Luck.

Even though the release notes mention improved https support, I can't get it to work with https connections (I couldn't get earlier versions to work either.) Am I missing something?

I can't get Utorrent to connect to Demonoid, does anyone else have this issue? All other apps like Transmission have no problems.

Daduda had trouble on 29 Nov 2009

Updated to 0.9.3 and now have a problem - it is crushing all the times. I would love to downgrade to the previous version with which I had no problem at all! Just switched from Transmission and the only thing I miss - I can't choose the itmes within torrent as I did in Transmission. I am happy with all the rest - especially with the effective speeds of download/upload.

dainty77 had trouble on 04 Apr 2009

Is there WebUI for the mac version?

I followed the instructions on http://www.utorrent.com/documentation/webui/

"Enable and configure the WebUI in µTorrent (Preferences -> Advanced -> WebUI"

There is no advanced section in the preferences!

sl1der had trouble on 28 Nov 2008

Well, it launches. It finds and loads torrent files. It finds the tracker. Get's peer and seed info. But then the trouble starts. Although it finds the peers and seeds, and at times connects to a few, no data goes in or out. Port is open. Even tried letting it map the port. Both ways I get a green light and functioning connection, but no data transfer. I have never seen it connect to more than 4 peers at a time and zero data transfer. I even let it sit there all night and same situation. It also does not retain preferences across relaunches. The minute you quit, all preferences are reset to stock. After using this on Wintels, I was very excited to see it in action on a Mac. Very disappointing so far. I hope they get the bugs worked out.
