Unable to change domain settings.
-
I registered my domain with wordpress.com. I have a friend that is going to host my blog so I want to switch the domain over to his server. I want to keep the domain name, which is purelymoms.com. He is just going to host but I am going to still use wordpress. How do I do this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you’ve registered your domain through WordPress.com and now want it to point to a blog or website hosted elsewhere then you can do this by updating the nameservers.

Thank you! I tried these suggestions however when I go to my dashboard, go to Store- there is no Domain, only ‘My Domain’. When I go there I am unable to find Domain Administration. Why can’t I find this? Thanks.

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 and purchased the domain mapping upgrade to access that area.
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-visibilityIf 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. -
The account you are posting from does not have any active upgrades. The domain you are trying to renew is probably owned by another WordPress.com user account.
Could you have had a second account at some point?
