Downloading custom content with Windows 7? Help!

[Tahilanor]

I bought a new notebook yesterday, with Windows 7 Home Premium, and have been spending the entire day (literally, I started this morning at 7 and it's just past 4 in the afternoon now! ) and decided to start re-downloading my custom content. However, there is no response from the SIMS 3 uploader when I try to do it via Internet Explorer and I get an error message when trying with Mozzila Firefox! Can anyone give me some help on how to solve this? Please!

Windows 7 is a little different to get used to. Just a thought. Have you checked your task bar after you try to download? Sometimes you'll get a message asking if you want to allow this action. Also open your task manager to see if you have downloads running already.

Is this store items or third party CC? This site does not endorse third part CC.

It is the store bought items - in specific, the new pirate town and other items that I bought and downloaded without hassel on my previous computer (which had Vista). The download appeared in the uploader, but immediately canceled due to a download error, whatever that may have been.

What exactly does the download error say? Does it give you any more information?

It says: "There was an error while downloading content. Please see log for detail." Only, where on earth does one find the log?
