Hi Jane,

Sorry for this issue you are facing.

Through the Salesforce service (Apex or others) you cannot directly communicate with an FTP server (either upload or download).
Your best bet would be to use an external application. Jitterbit Data Loader is the go-to application for FTP interactions with salesforce.
You could also create your own service outside of the Salesforce platform.

Refer this Link: http://https://developer.salesforce.com/forums/?id=906F000000095bfIAAApp.

or you can use this App: https://appexchange.salesforce.com/listingDetail?listingId=a0N300000016ZwDEAU 

Hope this helps.

Kindly mark this as solved if the reply was helpful.

Thanks,
Nagendra
