New 3.1 build up with some fixes!

Yep, 32-bit only. You'll start seeing 64-bit 3.1 builds in the future.

We've released the first µTorrent 3.1 alpha with several new features and improvements over 3.0. Check it out here! http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=105596

This version will focus on minor fixes and improvements from the recent 3.0 release, and also includes the ability to easily drag and drop contents onto Apple (via iTunes), Android (directly) and PS3 and XBOX (via USB) for file types that are within the target formats. We've also been working hard to improve performance over 3.0 in almost everything. Download the new version now! Release highlights: New: Devices node allows you to add a target device such as an Apple device, and then drag in-format content to that device. The devices node is hideable.

Probably adding yourself or something.

I think I just fixed that forum error. Sorry about that. Does the 32-bit uT work on Windows 8?

Are you running 25583? This is supposed to be fixed.

Keep in mind that hard drives are VERY slow for random I/O, which is what torrents do. Throughput is miserable when reading and writing randomly. So you need some heavy caching to let the hard drive keep up. Try these settings. This is what I use for about 7-10mbyte/s.

Yes.

Correct. Currently there's an issue where it'll get shown more than once on the next day, after clicking it away... we'll fix that soon. Just ignore the link for now.

Changelog is up.

New release up! Check it out!

We were working on issues with minimized in the mainline 32-bit client and had fixed them there recently. Those fixes are now in the 64-bit client as well, so please check it out.

Changelog is up! It's mostly just rolling in fixes from the stable 32-bit 3.0.

That's not a bug... turn on minimize to tray if you want it to minimize to tray.

The settings aren't actually stored in the registry. We suggest backing up because the 64-bit build is experimental and may damage your settings file. So far it hasn't been the case, but it's worth proceeding with caution.

The changelog is now up on the first post. Sorry for the delay!

The forums are not updated at the same time as releases for Mac builds. http://www.utorrent.com/downloads/mac - this is the definitive place to see if there was a new build. The release notes are also linked there.

We are not updating 2.2.1 or older to 3.0 as of this moment. But if you're on a particular 3.0 build and we push a new one, you would get updated to the newer 3.0 build. However, 25460 is the latest permanent release. The newer builds have all been pulled.

We generally don't post changelogs for short-lived builds or installer-only builds. Proper releases get changelogs at the same time they're posted though.

We are aware of this bug already. Thanks though.

Autoupdate is not broken. It has not been enabled for users on 2.2.1 or older.

µTorrent Mac only supports OSX 10.5 and up.

Choose a different username for Remote or disable the feature in the preferences.

The primary label is effectively the old label. The other labels are just tags (they do nothing but act as a tag).
