I keep getting a blank page whenever I click the download tab. I also tried the ShakesPeer DC client but it didn't work.

Two other possibilities are to use the PC version with an emulator or recompile the Linux version.

Of the two Mac users in the hub that I am aware of, one uses an emulator, and the other uses ShakesPeer.

I found there are several options:

1) Make sure you are using the latest version of ShakesPeer. They may have corrected the problem.

2) You can try MacDC++ found at:

http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15390

-- it is an Alpha version so there might be stability issues.


3) One Mac user in the past used Valknut found at:

http://wxdcgui.sourceforge.net/

--keep in mind this was about 4 or 5 years ago so the current version may not have the support for the security features that keep many Mac users with older software from entering the hub.

4) At the Valknut site, one user made the same suggestion that I did initially: use LinuxDC++ found at:

http://linuxdcpp.berlios.de/articles.php?um=index

--you will naturally have to recompile it for the Mac OS.

5)The one Mac user I was able to talk to decided that the easiest thing to do was use an emulator with the PC version of DC++. He reports no problems.

I hope this helps...

YET ANOTHER TROUBLESHOOTING FAQ



Q: "WHAT IS THE "AUTO-LOGIN" FEATURE AND HOW DO I ENABLE IT?"


A: YOU'LL NEVER HAVE TO REMEMBER YOUR PASSWORD AGAIN.


HERE IS HOW TO ENABLE IT:


Step One-- open your "Favorite Hubs" list (the "gold star" on the menu)

Step Two-- find the listing for the Alizée hub and left-click on it

Step Three-- left-click on the "Properties" button

Step Four-- type in your password in the "password" space
(carefull! don't make a mistake!)

Step Five-- left-click the "OK" button, then close the "Favorite Hubs" window


----NOW YOU'LL LOG IN AUTOMATICALLY.


================================================== =======



Q: "OK: I'M REGISTERED AND I LOGGED BACK IN, BUT I CAN'T DOWNLOAD ANYTHING:
NOT EVEN FILE LISTS. WHEN I TRY, I GET THE MESSAGE:

"Connection timed out"

HOW DO I FIX THIS PROBLEM SO I CAN BEGIN DOWNLOADING FROM THE HUB?





A: Solution # 1: CHANGE YOUR CONNECTION SETTINGS TO "PASSIVE".


Chances are, you are behind a firewall or router and it is blocking your
ability to connect to the hub. The quickest fix to this problem, so you
can connect to the hub and begin downloading right away, is switch to a
PASSIVE CONNECTION.


Here's how to do that:

a): Go to "File>>>>>>>>Settings>>>>>>>>>Connection Settings"

b): Enable the setting "Firewall (passive, last resort)"

c): Click "OK"

YOUR CONNECTION SHOULD NOW WORK. TRY DOWNLOADING A FILE LIST FROM
AN OPERATOR TO BE SURE.


---OR----


Solution # 2: ENABLE PORT FORWARDING AND AN "ACTIVE" CONNECTION


Passive connections have their drawbacks: you can only download from
ACTIVE users, not other PASSIVE users, your connection is a bigger
resource drain on the hub, and there are limitations of the "Search"
function. Eventually, you'll want to try to enable an ACTIVE CONNECTION.

You will do this by "poking a hole" through the HARDWARE firewall (like
a router or hub or some broadband modems) or SOFTWARE firewall (like Zone
Alarm or the Microsoft Internet Firewall)-- or BOTH-- that's blocking
your connection by opening a port (called "Port Forwarding").

Since this is meant to be a concise guide, the detailed instructions to
do this are well outside the parameters of this FAQ. However, an excellant
guide can be found at the DC++ Forum. The link to the "How can I set up
active mode" FAQ is below:


http://dcpp.net/faq/index.php?sid=58...d=1&artlang=en



The "Broadband Reports" website has an excellant dc++ FAQ also. Here's a link:


http://www.dslreports.com/faq/dc



--GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY DOWNLOADING!---



================================================== ======



Q: "HOW DO I GRANT A FAVORITE USER AN AUTO-SLOT?"



--This means as long as it is activated, the designated user will be automatically
granted a slot no matter how many upload slots you currently have open--


1) Right-click on the nick of the person you want to grant an auto-slot to,
and select "add to favorites."

2) Open your "Favorite Users" Menu (the blue star on the menu bar)

3) Put a "check" in the box in the "Auto grant slot/nick" column next to that
user's nick.



--YOU'RE DONE!----

In case anyone wondering what happened to the lolcat bonanza, we tried to move it to a better location but a space worm ate it all (it got deleted).

Didn't think it would grab that much attention so... My bad!
We need to keep this thread about the hub only

And here is your cat

Well said, buddy.

There are enough VIPs and Operators online at any one time that you can be assured there are at least 2 or 3 copies of every legally trade-able Alizee file known to mankind available for your downloading pleasure. I keep "one of everything" in my share with the exception of those fan-created DVDs (all the individual vids on the DVD are there in my share anyway) because of disc space considerations.

The main thing to know about the Alizee Hub is that with it's multiple real-time chat-rooms and long history, is that we are not just some anonymous peer-to-peer file-sharing site, we are (or at least strive to be) a COMMUNITY.

Though we explore the whole wide world of girl pop in our combined collection of Vids and Clips, our focus in main chat tends to be on Alizee, and is a great place to swap files and look for the latest news and information regarding Alizee.

Though it can be a lot of work to set up and configure (at least at first -- that's the reason for all those FAQs and "How-to"s) I think you'll find once you'll been with us for a while that the Hub will be an essential part of your daily diet of Alizee!

-- I hope that answers your question and we hope to see you in the hub.
