This morning my Intel iMac 64 computer attempted to fetch work for the ATI GPU, but received nothing. Is there a problem with Seti and these tasks?

Looking at the application list the only application for the Mac capable of running on AMD/ATI is Astropulse. These tasks are not always available, they are split from the same disks that the Multibeam tasks are split from, but because of their size, there are less Astropulse made from each data disk than there are Multibeam. Therefore once all Astropulse are split and sent out to computers, there's a while that only Multibeam tasks are split and sent. Until new data disks are loaded and Astropulse are split again from those. |
