Why don't some of my files in UTorrent start downloading?

Question

I have a few files downloading and some that are inactive, why are they not active? How can I fix this problem?

Answer 1

i'm not sure what you mean by inactive if you mean their qued you need to increase the max download at one time limit on utorrent by default its sets to 3, if you mean its not downloading see if there are any seeders if there are none you have to wait for seeders to show up

Answer 2

What are the numbers at the top of the seeds and peers/leechers columns?  You can only download torrents if other people are currently online sharing the files, or parts of them _and_ if they have bandwidth spare that you can connect to.  If a torrent has 0/0 for both it means there is no-one currently on sharing that torrent.  Try leaving your PC on for a day or 2, some people only seed at night.  Otherwise, try to find a different torrent for whatever it is you are trying to download.
