 * Cannot import WordPress.com blog into WordPress.org
 * I have followed all of the steps – exporting my WordPress.com blog and then importing
   it into my WordPress.org – however when it gives you a list of all of the files,
   it says for each that they ‘already exist’ — how can they when I’ve only just
   set it up.
 * Please help.
