 * Hi,
 * Previously i’ve a blog ssdrmaza.wordpress.com. Then i’ve bought a domain drmaza.
   com.
    I’ve add the address at “add domain to blog” and it work’s fine.
 * Now i have my own hosting service provider, so i would like to transfer all my
   files to my new hosting service provider.
 * My new hosting service provider told me to change my exiting name server to their
   server
    nameserver : ns1.mydnsboxz.net , ns2.mydnsboxz.net
 * I’ve change my DNS, then what should I do?
 * My friend brought the same hosting service provider and a domain name. He install
   wordpress.org and he is able to change any html code and add any embed as his
   wish for his blog.
 * After I change my DNS, can i do the same thing as my friend?
    If I can, how can
   I do it?
 * Right now, whenever I click at Edit CSS, i still cannot edit my html code.
 * Or, do i have to rebuild my homepage all aver again in my new hosting service
   provider?
 * Thanks again.

 * Hi again,
 * I’ve read the info.
    But sadly, I couldn’t find any help regarding my situation.
 * I need to transfer all my files in wordpress.com to my new hosting service provider.
 * My problem is I can’t manage any file ( don’t know where and how) to access to
   all my files in wordpress.com so that i can create a copy and a back up to be
   transferred to the new hosting service provider.
 * So, if i can;t access to the files in wordpress.com, then how can i transfer 
   it to the new host?
 * Thanks.

 * At WordPress.COM, you export. Log in, go to Manage -> Export
 * At your new hosted blog, you import. Manage -> Import

 * It is not true you cannot access the *files* at com. You can export all your 
   data. (not strictly files but you get the idea)
