  You need to download it individually from your media library.

  Thanks,

  I got it done by modifying php.ini and wp-config.php to allow larger file sizes, use more memory and to time out slower. It also helped splitting the xml files (multiple sites) using wxrsplitter.

  Good thing that you sorted it out but you didn’t realize that this support forum is for sites hosted on WordPress.com, not for the self-hosted version of WordPress. More info on what’s different – https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Thanks, that is exactly why I used the forum. I had 4 free worpress.com and one premium wordpress.com website that I wanted to combine into one and migrate to a non wordpress.com host. If it wasn’t a wordpress.com site I would have simply used an ftp client and exported the database manually.
