# Installation Problems from WordPress.com to .org

 * I’m in the process of transferring from wordpress.com to wordpress.org and I’m
   having trouble logging into my WordPress.org site.
 * I have hosting/domain from WordPress.com currently and I’m trying to do a full
   transfer to wordpress.org. I’ve exported my file from WordPress.com
 * I’ve purchased hosting at Bluehost – when asked if I wanted a domain I selected
   that I already had one and used my current domain. After everything was set up
   in Bluehost I clicked Install WordPress. It asked which domain I want to install
   to and I selected my current domain (the one being hosted by WordPress.com)
 * This is where I’m hitting a snag – the admin link provided by Bluehost after 
   the installation brings me to the WordPress login, but the login credentials 
   they provided don’t work. I’m able to log in using my wordpress.com info, however.
 * I’d like to be able to log into the wordpress.org site and set everything up 
   before switching the domain over to the new host. Am I doing something wrong?
   How do I log into the wordpress.org site installed on Bluehost?
 * Any help would be appreciated! Thanks everyone.
