  i know my name and password. i get to the log on screen, type in my name and when i try to type in the password the cursor moves but leaves nothing to indicate the password is being typed, no dots, nothing. when i hit enter usually nothing happens. a couple times i have gotten to the next page where it lists “New Post, Reader, Stats, My Blogs, Freshly Pressed” but at that point nothing works and i can get no further. things used to work very well. i did not log on for a few months and now i can’t get it to work.

  Thanks

  Do not log-in on the front page of WordPress.com. Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/

  Instead I recommend that you ONLY log-in directly you your own blog and ONLY create posts here > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New

  If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  If you are, please do these four things:

  1. Try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

  2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

  3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.
