  Hello!

  Just to be clear, have you followed the proper instructions to install?

  The easiest way to install Jetpack is via your site’s Dashboard. Please follow these instructions to install and connect Jetpack:

  Log in to your site’s Dashboard (e.g. http://www.yourgroovydomain.com/wp-admin)
  Click on the “Plugins” tab in the left panel, then click “Add New”.
  Search for “Jetpack” and the latest version will appear at the top of the list of results.
  Install it by clicking the “Install Now” link.
  When installation finishes, click “Activate Plugin”.
  Now click the green button on the top right that says “Connect to WordPress.com”
  Login with your WordPress.com account (or create one) and click “Authorize Jetpack”
  You’re done!

  As well, keep in mind that if your site is on wordpress.com then you do not need jetpack as it is already built in! This is for wordpress.org users.

  Let me know if I can be any further help!

  Jetpack is installed and it worked before numerous updates and a change in servers. My problem occurs at this stage:
  Login with your WordPress.com account (or create one) and click “Authorize Jetpack”. I am directed to a WP login page. When I enter credentials it asks Are you sure you want to do this? The Please try again.
