Ummm, I have updated my WoW to 3.3 a few nights ago, and I wanna try and hop onto this server, but i'm not really sure on how I can, aside from re-installing WoW completely, a little help please?
Look in the FAQ section of this guide.
Go into your Data file, Delete patch.MPQ...

then go into your main "World of warcraft" file, double click repair...

Once it starts uncheck all the boxes on the left side, then click "check files only"

This will take you back to 3.1.0

All done, start repatching

This for god sake this. This technique has saved me so many times when I manage to mess up.
it doesnt work like that for this patch, patch 3.2.2a and 3.3 are one, you now have to patch to 3.2 then manually patch, personally...im just waiting for this server to catch up XD

Its not hard to find the right patch...

And Btw YES it does work that way, i just did it less then a week ago...

:|
3.3 has given me nothing but trouble in the sense that I cant play CotH
because it is a hassle to download the patches manually... Im just going
to wait till the server updates to 3.3
I hear ye bro but there is a solution for your problem...

I had a hell of a time patching up too but i found the issue. The patches that are in the World of warcraft file don't work! Any patch before 3.2.0 is bugged, i blame blizzard. They probably put some sort of coding in them so they only work once or something like that, Blizzard are a bunch of slimy bastards but hey, they made this game so...

What you need to do is find patch 3.2.0, its about 250mb and it should be in your "World of Warcraft" file, the thing is its doesn't look like the rest of them. Most have that blue whirlwind design, but 3.2.0 looks like an xp window(white and blue square like)

IF you try to patch up with the ones in your main file it will fail everytime (Unable to patch etc etc) *shakes his fist* damn you blizzard!! Again, no patches before 3.2.0 work...

This is the correct order that Will work...

3.0.1 -> 3.2.0 -> 3.2.0a -> 3.2.2 -> 3.2.2a

IF you can't find the 3.2.0 patch you can download it here...

AH yeah you see, I'm not tech savvy worth shit, so you can see where I had problems :P
Okay, I've seen this method so many times, wondering if there's one for Mac? Cuz us Macs don't have the repair.exe I've been waiting for the server to patch up to 3.3.0a but seems the server doesn't want to patch up to 3.3.0a.
I'll look into that for ya...
Hey I'm on a mac also and it won't connect. That process doesn't work for mac like warcupcake2 said.
