    What I post below applies only to wordpress.COM username accounts and sites and does not apply to WordPress.ORG username accounts and sites.

    You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:

    http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

    * You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with the actual blog’s name in that URL.

    I recommend bookmarking that link or memorizing it.

    You can update your email address here https://wordpress.com/me

    If you are not logged in under the correct username account then clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies and then login correctly under the relevant username account.

    If you did not register the site under your username account and do not have the required access, then you need to contact the person who registered the account and site under it, and have them act or transfer the site to your username account by using this process. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account

    If the login information has been lost go to
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/#lost-password

    If required use the account recovery form
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/

    I keep getting logged into an old account I no longer use. I have tried many of the steps and I am getting no where.

    the theme designer created an error where I can’t log in under admin. I am on the hosting site but have no clue to fix my problem.
