We want to run 2 seperate blogs from same computer

    We are not able to access both blogs as blog owner. When I put jacksjottings onto the computer I cannot get into my pommepal.wordpress.com blog. It will only open as a visitor site. I have been using the computer for my pommepal blog for a long time. Jacks computer has just died so put his blog onto the computer, now I cannot access mine. Have tried going into google and opening the wordpress home page to log on but that just opens up to Jacks blog. Hope you can understand this question?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    You should be able to access both blogs from the same computer. I assume you have different logins for each one. To make this work most easily you each need to remember to log out of your blog when ending your session.

    Otherwise for instance If you go to http://pommepal.wordpress.com/wp-admin/ you will get an error message something like

    User [yourusername] Cannot Access the Dashboard Requested
    
    You are logged in as "[otherusername]" and do not have the necessary privileges to access the dashboard for "[yourblog]". If you are not "[otherusername]", please log out, and log back in with your username.

    At that point you can log out and then you should be able to log in to your own blog.

    Let us know if this works for you.

    Also remember to clear your browser cache after logging out of one blog before logging in to the other.

    I use different browsers for different blogs because I got tired of typing passwords over and over. For example: Safari for work. Firebox for home.

    Thank you for your prompt reply. Yes the answer was to log out (actually said sign out) then we can both access the WordPress log-in page.
