 * I can see my blog and log in just fine. When I try to do a new post, go to dashboard
   or anything else, I get a completely white screen. GoDaddy sent me instructions
   how to fix it but the instructions necessitated that I would be able to get to
   dashboard. I can’t access anything. Help!

 * Try:
    – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme by renaming your current theme’s
   folder inside wp-content/themes and adding “-old” to the end of the folder name
   using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever file management
   application your host provides.
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or phpMyAdmin.
 * – re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from 
   a **fresh** download of WordPress.
 * – running the upgrade manually via wp-admin/upgrade.php

 * It all of a sudden magically appeared. No rhyme or reason after not working for
   4 hours! Frustrating.

 * Probably a temporary hosting issue. It happens sometimes.
