"Waiting for circuit"-problem (newbie)



Hello!

I'd really like to use Tor but I have the following problem that I couldn't solve although I searched the FAQ and Wiki for days by now. I'm not so familiar to this advanced use of my computer (for ME it's advanced)- so I hope, someone can help me out?!

The log:

Oktober 12 11:19:43.041 [Hinweis] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have only 96/1201 usable descriptors. Oktober 12 11:19:43.271 [Hinweis] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have only 192/1201 usable descriptors. Oktober 12 11:19:43.751 [Hinweis] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have only 287/1201 usable descriptors. Oktober 12 11:19:43.850 [Hinweis] We now have enough directory information to build circuits. Oktober 12 11:21:39.961 [Hinweis] Tried for 120 seconds to get a connection to [scrubbed]:9001. Giving up. (waiting for circuit) Oktober 12 11:22:01.981 [Hinweis] Tried for 120 seconds to get a connection to [scrubbed]:1443. Giving up. (waiting for circuit) Oktober 12 11:22:39.986 [Hinweis] Tried for 120 seconds to get a connection to [scrubbed]:9001. Giving up. (waiting for circuit)

I'm running the 0.2.0.31 Tor pack (german) on MAC OS X 10.5.5 with an PPPoE internet connection (account name + PW). The whole package is installed, but as soon as I want to start Tor, I've the listed problems. Did I forget to make more adjustements than installing it? The Tor site doesn't say more to this. Do I have to install a proxy internet connection?

Hoping for some help to a poor newbie who wants to learn how to surf more securely and also wants to enlargen the network
