  Hi there,

  You must 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.

  Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
  and if required click the “Need More Help” link and complete the form for account recovery. https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

  Hi @willietaylor,

  Can you let me know which of your blogs you’re referring to? Also, assuming you’re logged in as the administrator, you should be able to change the password for individual posts by navigating to All Posts -> Edit -> Visibility as seen in the screenshot here:

  Are you not able to do that?

  Best,

  Jeremey
