Just signed up to this forum to report that my customized toolbar vanishes with each restart/update with this beta build. It's nothing major, since it doesn't affect the performance of the application, but it's a little frustrating to modify it each time i restart uTorrent.

Well, now i could not even go back to utorrent 1.8.4, I think it has something to do with the installer! Correct me if i am wrong but utorrent did not use an installer before, you would just click the dmg and then the icon would appear and you would drag it over to app fplder. Now they are using an installer, even with the older versions and they are not working on my mac! Luckily i am running both Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion with a partition between both. I had to drag the utorrent from ML to SL to have utorrent on SL again. If anyone knows what is going wrong, please let me know! I would like to upgrade to latest version in the future!

Here's my reply to "Think I've accidentally deleted something important" in Troubleshooting (Mac). That topic has other replies all relating to 1.8.6 release failing on 10.6.8 which is what all entries in current topic actually relate to:

Posted 31 October 2014 - 05:44 PM

For several days I've been trying to fix the problem that the current Mac release, 1.8.6, CAN NOT RUN ON OS X 10.6.8, at least on Mac Book Pros. (I have always declined the installation of other software so have nothing to say re any problems caused by the spigot-extensions). The library libc++.1.dylib is not part of the standard 10.6.8 install. Unfortunately the MacPorts current release of libcxx installs a version of libc++.1.dylib which results in slightly different error messages:(selected portions)
Process:         uTorrent [22693]
Path:            /Applications/uTorrent.app/Contents/MacOS/uTorrent

Dyld Error Message:
 Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib
 Referenced from: /Applications/uTorrent.app/Contents/MacOS/uTorrent

I am trying to find out what architecture is needed for the I.8.6 version of uTorrent for Mac. Then I will attempt to determine if there is away to get the MacPorts libcxx package to include versions of the libraries for this architecture.

I have occasionally over the past few months tried to update to the 1.8.6 release of uTorrent for Mac. All of these have resulted in a failure to start and an error report which began like my excerpt above. Because of the 4th line "Version: ??? (???)", prior to yesterday, I assumed some low level undiagnosable problem was occurring and never read down to see the dyld error message. Since I had and earlier version, 1.8.2(29019) installed under the app name uTorrent_1_8_2(29019) I never lost access to some working version.

-----------------------

Here's an addition which I added in a reply to "Utorrent wont work on my mac 10.6.8" recently posted to Troubleshoot(Mac):

 

Since that time I've determined that all builds of 1.8.6 (at least when installed on Mac Book Pros under 10.6.8) are built for i386 rather than u86_64.  Also while MacPorts libcxx claims to support both i386 and u86_64, requesting an install of a universal version of libc++.1.dylib results in a long preparation of universal versions of many prerequisite apps and then a failure when it comes to building the universal version of libc++.1.dylib. So I've not yet been able to suggest a solution. The work around of installing an earlier version, <=1.8.4 all seem to have worked on 10.6.8, seems to be best at present.  Personally before I install a new version I always manually rename /Applications/uTorrent.app to /Applications/uTorrent_#_##_###(build no), where version no of uTorrent is #.##.###.

------------------------------------------------

If you have any Time Machine or other backup of an earlier running version of uTorrent you might be able to restore that version of /Applications/uTorrent.app.
