Change the permissions or use a different directory.

You shouldn't be saving to that folder.

Perhaps the original poster could have been more forthcoming with his question, but you guys were really not much help at all.  When I googled the exact same question, I chose this search result because it's a uTorrent forum—I mean, I really expected this to be THE place to go to get a real answer.

 

In my case (and I would bet my testicles the same was true for "daneconn" too), the download location in question should, in my opinion, be fine.  For one thing, it's my computer--I am the only user--so why would I not have permission?  Second, I save things here all the time.  It's just a new folder in what is essentially "my documents."

 

So, the real question(s):

 

What is actually the problem?  Yes, the path begins with /Users/ .

Is there a workaround?  This is the location where I want to download a lot of torrents to.  Am I seriously going to have to obey my computer rather than it obey me?

 

It seems like I've run into this issue before and it was a simple fix, but I could be wrong about that.

 

Thank you in advance.
