It took hours to download all my content. First, I downloaded each piece and then went back and deleted each piece. I learned the hard way that to avoid scrolling through all my work each time, if I held the Alt key down and hit edit, it would open the piece in another window. Then I could copy it to my computer and return to the list in the first window without it resetting to the beginning.
How I wish I had saved each piece as I published it!
Good Luck Francine.
