It will not connect successfully. These are the instructions given for the connection:
Important: You must enable XML RPC remote publishing protocols on your blog. In simple words, it is a service built into WordPress that allows software like this to make posts on your blog. By default, the feature is turned off and you must indeed enable it for the software to work properly. You can enable this feature on a single click by visiting the admin area of your WordPress blog and select it from Settings > Writing menu.
Step 5: Here you enter a minimum and maximum interval between which a random interval is chosen for every post made by the software. For example, if you enter 3 and 5 and choose hours from the drop-down, every post will be scheduled randomly between 3 to 5 hours. Like the first post at 3.4 hours, next at 4.5 hours and so on. This does not mean the software will wait have to be running for the time to expire until next post is
made. ABS 2.0 will make the posts immediately and automatically schedules it on the blog to be published only on the future dates which will then be handled by the blog itself.
Finally, press the Check and Add Blog button. The software will then check if the settings are correct and prompt you if any modifications are required or else will add the blog to its list.
Please help with getting this connection to work. Thanks so much! -
Sorry, I wanted to add this to my last post.
When trying to find the area to facilitate the change from Settings>Writing menu – there is no such area to make the change yet it will not communicate with them.

This is the support entry > http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/
If you have followed those instruction and are still unable to resolve this issue then here’s the link to file a support ticket with Staff > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ -

The support entry didn’t work either. The response was it was “forbidden”. I will send a support email but I sent one several hours ago and have not had any kind of response. I’m really frustrated with this whole thing…sorry…thanks for trying to help. There is not indication on the contact form where the answer will be – will they email me?

Do understand this very clearly. There a millions of wordpress.COM bloggers. Support staff have just returned from an annual brainstorming session. There is a backlog of support tickets so it’s unrealistic to expect them to immediately answer yours. It will be in the queue with all other support tickets.
Every time Staff deals with a technical issue they need to know:
1. Your operating system and how you connect to the internet and to wordpress.com.
2. Your browser and your browser version.
3. Whether or not you have tried this > http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/
4. A very good description of the exact problem* I did:
* I saw:
* I expected:5. If the problem is with a specific page, post or image then we need the URL for whichever is in question.
6. If the problem occurred when following instruction in support documentation then a link to it is helpful.
7. If you have had a recent operating system or security updates this is helpful to know as well.
8. When Volunteers cannot help members resolve their issues issue we direct them to contact Staff by using the contact link to create a support ticket http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/
Staff require all the same details in support tickets in order to provide an expeditious “fix”. Relying only on email and not having a ticketing system would simply result in Staff getting vague and sketchy descriptions, so they have to keep dragging out ALL of the relevant information by sending repeated emails to the you. It’s only after they have all the relevant details that they can start examining solutions..
