    Hello!
    I need to crate a page where my users can upload info, pictures and videos with a user ID and password for them selfs. And when they add the info and media I need that all that information uploaded automatically to a new page where all the info of my users can be seen on there own page inside my web site.
    How can I do that?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    What you described sounds a little like a membership site to me, and you could use https://buddypress.org/ to setup something like that. However, that would require a separate hosting account elsewhere and you would need to install and maintain WordPress and BuddyPress on your own.

    WordPress.org and WordPress.com are different types of WordPress setups. See http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ to learn about the differences.

    On WordPress.com, there are a set number of roles. You could add people to the blog with the contributor role which would give them access to log in and submit new pages but they cannot publish new pages themselves. This route requires that you know their email address and send them an invite to the blog which they then complete by creating a WordPress.com account to use for their sign-in.
