Im a beginner with this stuff, and even though it worked fine before, now my Azureus is only downloading one file at a time, and i have no idea why. The other files all have seeds, not to many peers, and i have no idea whats going on. Please help!

Do you have any torrents that are in the seeding section?
If so, then are any of those in First Priority?

What are your settings for Max active torrents and Min simultaneous downloads at Tools>Options>Queue?

By default Azureus sets Tools>Options>Queue>Seeding>First Priority to 1:2 (0.5). First Priority.

To see if seeding torrents are in first priority, you can right-click in an empty area of the lower (uploading/seeding) section of the My Torrents page and choose Column Setup and tick the box next to Seeding Rank and press Apply and OK.

First Priority seeding torrents will take priority over downloading torrents.
If you have 3 (or more) torrents seeding under first priority, then that would make it so you have only 1 download as your min simultaneous downloads is set to 1.

You may be able to play with the first priority settings to adjust the seeding torrents under first priority.

Those default settings were put in to discourage leeching.

You could also take a look at Good Settings to see what is suggested for your line speed.
