I'm not going to spend $13 to "map it". WP is already trying to weasel out money by the dubious font upgrades that need to be renewed every year for "only" $30.

Thank you for the advice though.

To avoid that, you'll need to map the domain: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

Your design of having "new post" in four separate places on top of the screen only confuses more.

OSX version 10.8/ Mountain Lion. I am on Safari. Version 6.0 Yes, I use the secure log-in right on my own blog.
My connection is Ethernet./ DNS is 8.8.8.8

The problem of clicking and not getting any response has been going on since for a few months.

When I use Chrome none of this happens. So I guess the problem is with Safari.

How are you connecting to the internet and to WordPress.com? The way you connect to the internet (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up) and to your blog, and how many proxy server jumps etc. it takes to connect can cause problems. There maybe be problems with your ISP and/or with the proxy servers. Also note that the main dashboard isn’t designed to work with touch devices through the tablet and smartphone browsers.

Are you using the https:// secure log-in and logging directly into your own blog? http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

I will either click on the left or the right, and do it one, two or three times on NEW POST and nothing will come up. It takes me several tries just to get into my dashboard.

Also photos seem to take forever to upload.

Whatever simple and new ways WP makes to post, seem to complicate things worse.

Simple solution: add your main dashboard page as a bookmark in the bookmarks bar of your browser.

If someone participates on two or five or even more blogs, the drop down makes it easy to access any of the dashboards, stats, comments or blogs , from any location at wp.com.

Now there is no accessing my dashboard unless I go through several different places first. That's a big pain in the bother. Really!
As I hover on the (W) on the left corner atop this page there is still no link to the dashboard. I don't always want to post something, I'd rather see what sort of traffic I'm getting, who comments, what spam I need to delete and all the other wonderful things accessing the dashboard allows me to do.
After I typed this up and reviewed it I decided to hover over the upper right part of my screen that is normally reserved for accessing my profile; it seems that the only way to access the dashboard directly is to use the drop-down. That sucks. Really.

There is no requirement that one has to use a username and/or blog they registered. The only alternative you have is to contact the blogger yourself if the comments are open or by using contact information and ask them to transfer the blog to you using this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account If the blogger cannot be contacted then WordPress.com Staff will not violate their privacy but giving your any contact information.

I'm not sure if the causes are known, but there are standard solutions:

1. Try the Browser uploader instead of the Flash uploader.
2. If all else fails, delete all cookies and your cache, then close your browser and start again.
