Uploading 14.04

The upload will never stop. As long as the torrent client is connected you will continue to seed the file.

Downloading is you getting the file. Uploading is you sending the file to someone else.

Bit Torrent is a peer to peer system. You are currently acting as a server for others.

If its finished downloading your done and you can close it.

All that will happen is that someone will stop downloading from you and will find another server to continue the download.

Hi,

Okay. How do I shut the torrent client off?

Hi again,

Should I just click on quit? Or will that mess things up?

If you close the torrent client you will cease to upload but if you have seeded back enough then this is fine.

Will Ubuntu 14.04 still be downloaded if I do this?

I checked my downloads and it is there but only 38.2 KB. Is that all the bigger it is?

Also just checked my Home Directory Download file and it shows that it is downloaded.

Its a few hundred megabytes in size. You can download it using this URL:
http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso

I assume you want 32bit, or for 64bit:
http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso

I stopped uploading. I did not realize I was transferring files. Now I know. Appreciate all the answers and help. I am clicking on the link for 32 bit that actionparsnip (andrew) provided, but I also thank everyone else also.

Thanks actionparsnip, that solved my question.

Hi,

I know my question is solved. Just tried to ask a question on Launchpad after logging in but it came up with ERROR messages. So I thought I would ask you. When I checked DETAILS, it shows that I still have Ubuntu 13.10... When I click on what used to be called 'Update Manager', it's questions concerns Trusty 14.04 and reads like that is actually what is installed instead of 13.10. I am very confused about this. Do you think I do have 14.04 and it just reads 13.10 or do I still need to upgrade to 14.04?

What shows up on my monitor is usually in such small print, I have trouble reading it. How do I truly find out what version of Ubuntu is installed on my laptop?
