Hello.
This process was describe on our forum many times. 
First, you need to fully backup all your site (database&files)
Then, try auto update from you admin panel. Update your platform first. Then update all plugins and theme.

Your Username is like (Username)@(yoursite domain) and your Password is just your password. Did you try the Like email layout?

If you use SFTP only, you need to use port 22 instead.
