Trouble Logging into any wordpress.com sites…

    I’ve been setting up my own WordPress blog on WordPress.org, but I havea WordPress.com account for my gravatar and stuff. But when I try to log into a website that has a custom wordpress URL, it won’t load, and it keeps saying “waiting for r-login.wordpress.com” at the bottom, as well as saying that it’s waiting for whatever website I’m trying to access.

    I have 3rd-party cookies enables, I’ve disabled all of my extensions and it doesn’t work, and I’ve disabled my firewall and security and that doesn’t help either. I’ve tried different browsers and computers, and the issue remains the same. The only difference is that I can login from my iPad and keep accessing the sites, but on desktop computers it doesn’t load. What’s going on?

    (In case it helps, the websites I’m trying to access are gunbies.com and beneaththetangles.com)

    I really do not know what is going on. I can access both sites instantly from a PC running windows 7 and firefox 41.

    In order to help you Staff need to know your specific computing environment details. Please work through what follows and report back.

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

    2. If you are using an IE browser in compatibility mode please disable that mode. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view

    3. If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/

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

    If applicable see here for instructions on how to clear the cache for Chrome and Safari on the iPad:
    http://browsers.about.com/od/howtousemobilebrowser1/ss/safari-ipad-clear-cache.htm
    http://browsers.about.com/od/howtousemobilebrowser1/ss/How-To-Clear-Browsing-Data-In-Chrome-For-Ipad_6.htm

    (b) Make sure that you have both third-party cookies enabled and JavaScript enabled
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/
    http://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=12654

    (c) Disable all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily. Know also that security and firewall programs and programs that run incognito mode may need to be temporarily disabled as well.

    (d) Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

    Add both *.wordpress.com and *.wp.com to your list of trusted sites under the Security tab. Make sure to uncheck the box for “Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone.” http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/#frequently-asked-questions

    4. You can use this link to see if your flash is up to date. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ If it’s not then go to http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ and download and install the latest version of flash.

    5. Try using another browser.

    6. If you are not successful please provide this info:
    (a) Exactly what kind of device you are using to connect to the internet and to WordPress.com.
    (b) Exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://supportdetails.com/
    (c) Exactly what you experience including what any error reports you receive state.
