 * Background: I’m getting “JPG error” while trying to upload files. I’ve found 
   various causes and solutions.
 * Problem: Several solutions involve altering files, requiring an FTP editor. I
   installed FileZilla per WordPress guidance, but cannot connect. It appears to
   work until the password (which is correctly entered). I get;
 * Error: Critical error: Could not connect to server
 * I am happily ignorant of FTP, HTML, etc. I just want to upload JPG files. I need
   plain english assistance please.

 * Hi,
 * What hosting are you using ?
 * In the past, when I have had issues connecting to my server, contacting the server
   tech support team is the quickest way to solve the problem. There have been times
   when they have taken remote access of my system and resolved the issue faster
   rather than me trying permutations and combinations.
