athough I  have the same subscriptions  both in imac and macbook pro in vuze, on imac they  are updated but on macbook pro they are not.
Could you help me?
So you are trying to download the same torrent to two different computer both on the same home network?

I am not even sure if that is possible using subscriptions depending upon how they are implemented on the server side.

I mean let us say that the new torrent hits the torrent site at 17:00 GMT . . . your iMac checks the subscription every hour at 20 minutes after the hour (so in this case it would start downloading the torrent at 17:20 GMT).  Then some time later (for the sake of this discussion let us say that it checks at 30 minutes past the hour) . . . your Macbook Pro checks the site . . . the torrent site realizes you have already download that .torrent file (so it is no longer marked as new) and it will not send it to you.

That is my understanding of how the torrent feeds work at the majority of torrent sites.

What I am saying is that it is possible that nothing is wrong.

Now if you are not running Vuze at the same time on both computers . . . it could indicate a problem . . . but there could be several explanations for that happening (like for example the Macbook is checking every 3 hours for new subscriptions while the iMac is checking every hour or something like that) . . . which do not indicate a problem.

Give us some more information and maybe someone can help figure it out!

I checked the auto-download button and now they do update!Thank you for your attention
Ahh you were running them at a public site . . . I have no idea how subscriptions are managed on public sites.  Since you do not need an account I suspect they are implemented differently!

Well they are working now that is all that matters!  I am glad you got it working again!
