Use OrbTorrent
Notifications
OrbTorrent sends a notification when something needs you, or when a download is done. macOS asks the first time whether to allow them.
What it sends
Section titled “What it sends”| Notification | When | Its buttons |
|---|---|---|
| Download Finished | A download has every file you wanted. | Open and Show in Finder |
| Download Held | A check held a download before it started. It says which check, and what it found. | Download Anyway and Remove… |
| A check’s name, such as VirusTotal Scan | A check on a finished download failed, or warned. Or a check has news, such as subtitles it added. | Click it for the download’s checks. |
| Download Paused | Downloads paused because their disk is almost full. | They resume by themselves once there’s room. |
| OrbTorrent … Is Available | A new version was found while OrbTorrent was in the background. | Click it to see what’s new and install it. |
Clicking a notification about a download opens it in OrbTorrent. One about a check opens on the download’s Checks tab.
Turn them on or off
Section titled “Turn them on or off”- Download Finished follows Notify me when a download finishes in Settings › General. It’s on unless you turn it off.
- The others are always sent, because each one needs you. To silence them, or change how they look, go to System Settings › Notifications › OrbTorrent.
If no notifications appear at all, check System Settings › Notifications › OrbTorrent, and that Allow notifications is on.
