  Could you send a link to the site you’re administering?

  Please note these forums are for the sites hosted and managed here at WordPress.com. For help with a site hosted somewhere else, you’ll need to use the forums for self-managed WordPress installations instead.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Okay, that site is not hosted with us, but using the open source version of WordPress at another host. Please ask for advice in the forums that @supernovia linked to above.

  I’m trying to update the adminstration email and picture.

  Administration email verification
  Please verify that the administration email for this website is still correct. Why is this important?

  This email may be different from your personal email address.
  Update

  I change it but we never get the confirmation email to confirm.
  Says it’s pending
  Administration Email Address

  This address is used for admin purposes. If you change this we will send you an email at your new address to confirm it. The new address will not become active until confirmed.
  There is a pending change of the admin email to (email visible only to moderators and staff). Cancel

  We’re not able to help you with that here. Since your site is not hosted with WordPress.com (it is a site using the open-source WordPress software, from WordPress.org, but hosted on Dreamhost), you’ll want to look for help at the community forums here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/.

  Because WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two entirely separate entities, we cannot access files or data for sites that are hosted elsewhere, so WordPress.com staff can only assist with sites that are hosted on our servers. You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  http://wordpress.org/support/ is also a great resource for sites using the open-source WordPress.org software.
