This is the first line of the Export Your Content to Another Blog or Platform post in the Support Forum.

I'd love to do whatever I want with it, but I can't.

I've followed all of the guidelines to a T and the download of all my media from my old site to my new site keeps timing out.

I also paid for the guided transfer service to find out that you are paying for your entire old site to be moved to a new host - rather than moving the content and media to a newly designed site.

I don't want my old site, that's why I'm moving.

I want my new site with my old site's content and media.

This should be a very simple FTP transfer but I guess I'm locked out. I've read dozens of other posts and threads of other users having the same problem.

WordPress, I love you. You are a great platform. I've played by all the rules, paid for all the upgrades, and now it's time for me to go to WordPress.org - there's gotta be a better way.

Help!?
