How do you convert? I can't get anything I've downloaded to show up in Itunes.

You need to open the torrent and let it download. It will download a file like every other file you know.. avi, mp3, whatever. Than you can play it the usual
way.

For me, when it's finished downloading, the file automatically goes into a download folder. And sometimes the files are zipped.

I haven't downloaded torrents in a long time, but I used to use Bit Tornado to download them, and then I would play the files in winamp. Maybe you should
try downloading it to get your files to play.

K so i click on the file in the folder and it asks- the torrent you are trying to add is already in the list of torrents, do you want to load the trackers from
it?
i dont know what that means so i click yes, and nothing happens? |

Peeps I have downloaded files. Is there some compatability issue I should know about specifically for Ipods? For example does it matter if I download something
with an .avi extension.
<---is only good at playing music files and sucks at all other downloads. |

Try Right Clicking and see if you get a "Play" option.

Is your bit torrent open?
Go the site again, click the torrent and then 'open', not save. It will open your bit torrent and download. When it's done it's a regular file. You only have the .torrent file now probably and it's not enough. |

i think the files i dowloaded arent right, cause i did a lady gaga one and it was just zipped and it opened and played.
