Hi, I am having similar problems. I keep reading articles about how it is so easy a newborn could do it, but I have been at it on and off for a few evenings now (didn’t realise I am this stupid). I bought a domain (from 1&1), then tried following the instructions from several different sites … created a database, renamed the wp-config-sample.php file and edited the text in Notepad . . . downloaded filezilla. Filezilla will not let me find my database to try to transfer anything. phpMyAdmin will not allow my to import anything. I do not speak any computer language and frankly I don’t understand what I’m doing, despite trying to follow more than 10 differnt sites, all with different ideas of how installing wordpress can be done so easily. Frankly I don’t even know how this program is even going to link to my actual name (where I want the blog) once — and if ever — I get it installed in this supposed database that I only created beacuse it was where I was supposed to put wordpress. I am starting to think buying domain was a waste of mnaoey and I should have just gone with a free blogging site where I could just type away. I’d appreciate it if someone could explain in English (not computer-ese) the actual steps I need to follow to make this happen. Thanks so much to anyone who can do it.
