Jaywalk275 Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I upgraded recently (started uT and it said new version available, I hit ok, now 3.1.3).Before I upgraded, when I started a torrent, a window would come up listing the files I was about to d'load.I could check or uncheck what I wanted to d'load, such as only 3 albums instead of a whole discography.Since the upgrade I don't get this window, the full torrent just starts.I did look thru pref's and the help files, but honestly, I'm not sure what this window is called or what to search for.Hope I explained that clearly enough.TIAJps.... this seemed like a lightweight question so I didn't put it in the troubleshooting forum. Move it if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac-the-Knife Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Skip the 3.1 version and update to a 3.2 version of utorrent. The 3.1 series appears to have quite a few issues surrounding it. With a 3.2 beta version you will have a box come up that allows you to choose which files you wish to download before they are loaded into utorrent.

DreadWingKnight Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 If it doesn't come up with a window at all, you need to fix your settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Make sure you're on the non-column view. There's a toggle view button in the upper right corner of the toolbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winbobby Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I have had the same problem in the last few versions of utorrent...but it only occurs when I have to use a "Magnet" Link. If I use the "Download Torrent" the selection page appears as you would expect.I have tried installing 3.2 in both 32 and 64 bit versions..unsuccessfully. Even if I delete the utorrent.exe file from the directory, when I run the install exec it immediately opens the old version of utorrent. I suspect that the file is still in memory? So I may have to reboot and then run the install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac-the-Knife Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 In the UI settings, have you got a tick in the box that says "show a window that displays the files inside the torrent in advanced mode", this is in the "when adding torrents" section.

chipper Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 i have the same problem as suvrajat. i tried all the solutions. still not working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreasvb Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 The "solution" is to manually pick the files once it has started to download. Or you can use the beta version which will show the files after a while in the download dialog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WLS Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Andreasvb meant to say. The solution is to click OK on the dialog box, then manually pick the files from the "Files Tab" once the torrent is added, and starts to download, or use the beta version (which I need to test), or wait until the beta version is released, and refer back to option one.
