  Failed to import my LiveJournal to this WP blog with Tools -> Import.
  Message:
  ‘Logging in to LiveJournal failed. Check your username and password and try again.’
  Both a correct (copied from the buffer, typed separately – nothing helps).
  Any suggestions ?

  Hi there,

  Imports from LiveJournal do not work any more due to a problem on LiveJournal’s end. We have notified them of the issue, but they have not yet fixed it.

  Another user has written their own exporter and a converter that can create an XML file you can import here, if you want to try that. You can find more details in this thread:
