adobe's background downloader app is not very good. it defaults to this mode where it "download only when no other download tasks take place", which essentially means it doesn't do anything forever. under any kind of normal operation the computer's nic is constantly active, so the downloads never start. it does have a checkbox, if you turn it off it finally starts downloading, duh. not a very good design.
