Seeded downloads not starting, have tried 3 different clients

(1/3) > >>

Behonkiss:
I started up some torrents and tried downloading them.  They were all shown to have seeds, but the downloading never started- it just sat there.  I looked in the wiki and saw that my default client, BitComet, wasn't supported, so I looked at the whitelisted clients and tried uTorrent.  Still nothing.  I then went and downloaded the original BitTorrent client, making sure the version number was one of those approved.  Still nothing.

My connection does not have any sort of firewalls or anything and I'm stumped.  Any ideas?

NT. I misread what you said, sorry.

phufham:
if i read it right you are trying to download some stuff that people are seeding but its not starting, in utorrent click on the trackers tab to see if they're working, if not you can click to update the tracker and see if starts working, if it starts but still don't download you can also try to force start the download, right-click the torrent and click force start, dunno if this helps or not

It won't let me update the tracker for some reason.  Force Start doesn't work either.

I'm not getting any error messages either, unless there's a specific part of the software to find those I'm not aware of.
