Importing Problems

    I want to import my blogspot blog to wordpress.org. However, everytime, I get this message right after I allow access with my google account:

    We were not able to gain access to your account. Try starting over.

    I read that you could get around this problem by importing it to a wordpress.com blog first, and then into my wordpress.org, but I get the exact same error message.

    Help anyone, please? My blogger blog is the new blog, and my wordpress is the newest version also, I believe. (I just installed it yesterday)

    I had this working fine two weeks ago, now it doesn’t work.

    Steps to replicate:
    1) Tried with 2.2.2, standard GUI import. Went to | Import | Authorize. Failed

    Trouble signing in
    We were not able to gain access to your account. Try starting over.

    2) After trying this with several different self hosted blogs, I tried this with the wordpress.com account.
    3) Same message resulted.

    This appears to be a conflict with Blogger. Is this a known problem, and if so, how do we report it to Blogger as this looks to be their permissions not allowing us to do this?

    Just want to add to this thread – I am having the same problem with 2.2.2, I tried several different blogger blogs all with the same error – “Trouble logging in”.

    I will report it to Blogger but unfortunately I’ve never had much luck getting support from them in the past.
