thelittlefire Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Don't notice this. What's it doing? Increased CPU load? Increased hard disk activity? If you use Activity Monitor, err, would a sample of the process be useful?? lol I don't know how stuck processes are handled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoOneButMe Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Its not a bug. uTorrent has to close connections properly and write all data to disc before quitting. It's just a bad UI decision that's going to be revised in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcadium Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Hmmm, I hope they will fix it, because uTorrent takes seriously "forvever" to shut down.Clicking Force Quite does not help either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TG Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I wouldn't force quit the app until it closes the connections, If you are on a private tracker you can get banned for it so I would not attempt if you are on 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcadium Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 It's weird though how every Mac OS X client takes forever to close down its connections, while their windows xp counterparts shut down in a second... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 µTorrent doesn't exit in a second on Windows. It sometimes takes a few seconds, and if bt.graceful_shutdown is enabled, it can take even longer. If you want to ensure that data integrity (both on the tracker and on disk) are maintained, you're going to need to allow the client time to get it right.

shikhanshu Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 agreed... if you have no dl or ul going on, it quits in a snap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizzyb0t Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 The easiest solution is to stop all transfers BEFORE attempting to shut down µtorrent!!Never had trouble shutting down µtorrent when doing that. Of course, I'm a long-time computer user and it just seems like common sense. Any well programmed network application (Linux, Win, Mac, wtfe) will take time to shut down if it has to write to disk and close connections. Or it could be like the older (c. 2001) versions of Shareaza that'd just shut down immediately and your network would remain flooded for a few minutes because it was still receiving pings and req's.

thelittlefire Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 If the seasoned mac user thinks taking seconds to close both a disk- and network-intensive app is bad juju... make a dialog "Closing network connections... stopping disk jobs" so they can't say "omg it's liek sooo frozen"Yes, that is a current "workaround" bizzyb0t. But really there isn't much that can be done except make it CLEAR to the user.... nothing is wrong, you wanted to do stuff, uT cleans up after itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a bad UI decision that's going to be revised in the future.Be patient. There's other things that are being worked on as well beyond this one particular UI issue.

afiser Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 lol 2 years later and this still has not been fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantchaos Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 ya know, i luv these guys "long time user" etc.... I have waited today , for at least 30 minutes, AFTER all downloads were completed and NO uploading going on. There is absolutely no network activity nor does anything resembling uTorrent in the activity monitor there to force quit..... OH YAYYYYY, it has finally quit as I write this after almost 45 minutes. To those who think this in any way is closing connections or writing to disc, or "cleaning up" I beg you to get help. THIS IS A BUG that needs to be fixed BUT obviously WILL NOT due to the demise of PPC processors.IT HAS BEEN TWO YEARS and STILL this issue obviously has only been addressed with dialogue from those who do not see there is an issue and rhetoric that is really nothing but conjecture. YES I HAVE BEEN VERY VERY PATIENTTHIS ISSUE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY PROBLEM ON MY WINDOWS/INTEL CHIP laptops/pc12+ years on PPCand over a dozen MacsAND have wrote applications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
413x4nd3r Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 New mac user here, I hate this bug and it really sucks that it has been around for so long without getting fixed! I have been using utorrent for PC for ages now, but until this gets fixed I will have to use another client on os x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backfolder Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Hi all.Same here. I´ve just update to 1.5.11 (25801), stop and remove two files I was uploading, and after that I close utorrent and it gets "quitting" for a while, but after some minutes I need to force quit.This never happend in previous versions. I mean, you simply stop and quit et voilá, utorrent quits instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
