Thought I registered site but can't access it
-
Hello, I tried to register a new blog at harryshapiro.wordpress.com but the age hung and I am not sure it registered correctly as I cannot access the site and my dashboard says I only have one site (which is one I created a while ago). I’ve tried to register the site domain again but it says this name has been reserved! Can you sort for me please?

If you can make contact on your own with the owner of an unused blog via a contact form or commenting, then providing they are agreeable to it there is a means of a consenting blog owner to transfer the blog to another username account. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account
In the case that there is no contact information Staff will not breach the privacy policy and provide you with an email address.
When we register a username account the matching blog is reserved for our future use. It cannot be obtained by anyone other than the person who has registered the matching username account.
If and only if you have registered the matching username account then log in under the correct username account and as the blog is reserved for you and you will register it after logging in under the correct username account.

In the event that you think you registered the matching username and have lost your log-in information, please use account recovery https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and the Staff will help you by email ie. off of these public support forums that everyone with internet access can view.
If you are not successful, you can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/
Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
