Can't seed with 1.75 or 0.94

Post by jpbl68 »

I was having trouble using UPnP with Transmission 1.75 so, after reading another thread, I decided to roll back to 0.94. I'm trying to seed a torrent that I've already downloaded but when I open this torrent in 0.94 it tries to download the file all over again (which will take days). Is there anyway to force Transmission to seed rather than leech?

(I'm using an alu unibody Macbook running Leopard 10.5.8)

I managed to get Transmission 0.94 to recognise that I'd already downloaded those files but I still can't get them to seed. Right now the only thing I can think of is that either my router's firewall or my laptop's firewall is blocking it. But my router (BT Home Hub) is set to UPnP (I know this works as I set up UPnP to use my PS3 online) and I've told the Apple Firewall to allow incoming connections for Transmission.

I even tried creating a static IP address but that didn't work either. I couldn't load any sites even though my AirPort status was 'Connected'. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It's working now, slowly. Cheers for the link, I'll take a look.
