    In order to log in on a mobile device once two-step has been activated, you will need to use an application-specific password the first time, rather than your usual password. This will verify your identity. After that, you can use your regular password and your authentication code from Google Authenticator or another service.

    Enable Two-Step Authentication

    I also checked your site with Securi and found nothing that would prompt a security warning: http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/tvjobsuk.wordpress.com/

    Thanks Jackie,

    I still have the same problems. When going onto the site it says this >

    You attempted to reach http://www.tvjobsuk.wordpress.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as *.wordpress.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of http://www.tvjobsuk.wordpress.com.
    You should not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before for this site.

    Do you have some sort of antivirus software running on your computer? If so, you might wish to whitelist *.wordpress.com and *.wp.com.

    In your browser, try enabling HTTPS:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

    You can also add both *.wordpress.com and *.wp.com to your list of trusted sites under your browser’s Security tab.

    After posting this, I realized I didn’t ask if you are getting the security message on your iPad or on a regular computer. Please clarify this for me as well.
