Hey megdandelion, let's jump right into this! 

Just to make sure we're on the same page here: it sounds like you're trying to download your content locally using our website, is this correct?

How large is the content you're trying to download, and do you have the desktop app installed to your device? 

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
