Since now already a few months i have the problem, that my messenger connect doesnt work anymore. Always i am asked to authorize again, but afterwards it still doesnt work and the same message appears again. Someties when i want to authorize, i am getting the message that this is not needed and i am pushed back to the dashboard.
I hope to get a solution for this.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Have your tried reconnecting? After connecting/re-connecting the services, you will need to publish a new post in order to publicize it.

I’m sorry I can’t offer any help with this. Perhaps the messenger help center has a solution for you. Have you looked there?

P.S. I flagged this thread for Staff attention.

Thank you, but all this does not help, unfortunately.
I really tried so many things to solve it, and then i waited, thought maybe a temporary issue, but no …
So now i wait and see :)

Hm, we aren’t having an general issues with it, so I suspect the problem may be on Messenger’s end.

Are you able to use Messenger as you normally would (without Publicize) right now?

Yes, with messenger everything works fine … everywhere.

Ok, try this:

1. Disconnect Publicize from Messenger:

2. Clear your browser’s cookies and cache: http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/

3. Reconnect Publicize and Messenger.

I have the same problem! In the last month or two, sometimes WordPress asked me to authorise again the connection (which I never denied) but I always managed to solve the problem. Today I can’t absolutely do the connection, because an error occurs; and Messenger is working and Hotmail too,so I can’t understand what’s happening.. thanks for your attention :) !

yvonnebienas, yes, but please try clearing your cookies and cache between disconnect and reconnect.

alebv86, please try that as well.
