download
<jargon> To transfer data or (especially) code from one computer to another. The distinction between downloading and uploading is hazy but downloading often refers to transfer from a larger "host" system (especially a server or mainframe) to a smaller "client" system, especially a microcomputer or specialised peripheral.
Opposite: upload.
However, note that ground-to-space communications has its own usage rule for this term. Space-to-earth transmission is always "down" and the reverse "up" regardless of the relative size of the computers involved. So far the in-space machines have invariably been smaller; thus the upload/download distinction has been reversed from its usual sense.

UPLOAD - от себя кому-то
DOWNLOAD - от кого-то себе
UPLOAD - To transmit data from a computer to a bulletin board service, mainframe, or network. For example, if you use a personal computer to log on to a network and you want to send files across the network, you must upload the files from your PC to the network.
DOWNLOAD -
To copy data (usually an entire file) from a main source to a peripheral device. The term is often used to describe the process of copying a file from an online service or bulletin board service (BBS) to one\'s own computer. Downloading can also refer to copying a file from a network file server to a computer on the network.
In addition, the term is used to describe the process of loading a font into a laser printer. The font is first copied from a disk to the printer\'s local memory. A font that has been downloaded like this is called a soft font to distinguish it from the hard fonts that are permanently in the printer\'s memory.
The opposite of download is upload, which means to copy a file from your own computer to another computer.

download = "скачивать", гнлогол, вообще говоря, жаргонный.
Закачивать = upload.
Есть также простые термины receive или get and send или put (files, data)/
В современном жаргоне говорят также "слить файл" (получить), "залить файл" (закачать). Есть также термин докачка, от которого все это дело, видимо, и пошло-поехало:-)
Кстати, в словарях глагол скачать ваще отсутствует:-)
Главный вопрос - все ли завершилось как надо? А то писем нет...
Yours,
Tagir.
