    How are you trying to import everything? Themes & plugins and uploads will need to be added via ftp most likely - the import tool should be able to import your posts based on the xml file you export from the old blog.

    I would guess you are getting that error either from an issue with your web browser/computer firewall or it could possibly be due to your webhost - maybe they have a very low php memory limit or are using an older version of php? I would check the site on a few different computers/browsers and also check with your webhost.

    Good luck!
