ramparts Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 I've set uTorrent to automatically add new torrents it finds in a particular directory. (Preferences/Directories/Automatically load torrents from...) When I put a torrent file in that folder, uTorrent automatically adds them, but it starts the download in my Downloads folder. How do I specify a different folder for these automatically-added torrents to land? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldybut Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Preferences>> Directories >> you have settings for downloading and downloaded files. You apparently have your downloads folder selected for that. Click on that selection bar and browse around to where you want them to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I select a directory, won't it save ALL new torrents there, not just the ones I load automatically?That's not the behavior I'm looking for. I'd like to be able to choose where a download goes if I download the torrent manually, but have auto-add download to a specified directory that isn't ~/Downloads. I suppose uTorrent for Mac can't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldybut Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Try the 1.91.beta --- it does labels and will/ can shovel things to different folders -- depending on how you set up the labels feature.Info is here; http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=130798***WARNING*** it will create havoc with your existing downloaded stuff filing if you just jump into it (i.e. default moves to iTunes folders and other mystery stuff. If you now use an external drive as your end-of-the-line storage for all your downloads, it will be easier to do the change. Copy a few of your downloads (files and matching torrents) to your main drive. Practice a bit on managing labels before you expose your "life's work" to the new version. Be prepared to do location verifications and forced rechecks before you take your foodstuff back on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
