<h1>Managing your transfers </h1>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Torrent files contain information about the actual file you want to download (eg a movie), and connect you to the swarm of peers sharing it.</li>
<li>Transmission can watch a certain folder (eg your Safari download folder) for torrent files and then open them automatically via Preferences >> Transfers >> General.</li>
<li>By default, Transmission deletes the original torrent file upon opening. If you remove a transfer, in order to resume it you will need to reopen the original torrent file in Transmission.
Simply choose 'Save a Torrent Copy as' from the File menu before deletion to avoid having to download the torrent file again.</li>
<li>Once your download is complete, you can set a default ratio to automatically seed to, and then pause.
This can be adjusted in Preferences >> Transfers >> Management, or in real time using the Action menu.</li>
<li>Both seeding and downloading transfers can be queued, and Transmission can skip over stalled transfers, in order to maximise queuing efficiency.
Queuing can be configured in Preferences >> Transfers >> Management.</li>
</ul>
