Not near enough information to help you. How are you connecting to each machine, what OS is the desktop, etc. Why not just use a service like Google Drive, OneDrive, or DropBox if you're having issues? Or if it's a one-off, just email it to yourself.

Also, what has changed since you posted the question yesterday? You should at least post the error message to get help, because

scp -r smithkthedale@whatever_domain_or_ip:/path/to/your/txtfolder  ~/Desktop/

should work. Alternatively try rsync.
