Unable to sign in to apps with Gmail in Windows 8

Question

When I try to log in into certain apps using gmail I get errors.

For example when I try to logging in to 'Blogg' app which is for blogspot it says

You are not connected to the internet

Could it be due to Two factor Authentication? I have also tried using one time password but it does not work.

@Ramhound I have already said that one-time-password did not work. You can try for yourself if you have time, the application is free. — Kang, Nov 5, 2012 at 13:07
my application specific password works for me.. make sure you are copying it right... — TheXed, Nov 5, 2012 at 14:17
@Kang - I could have sworn when I read your question you didn't mention that fact. The reason I mentioned using the application specific application is because of the dozens of other questions that made a point of saying using it fixed this problem. — Ramhound, Nov 5, 2012 at 15:30

My first (and only) suggestion would be to download the Microsoft Accounts troubleshooter. It diagnosis and attempts to fix the following issues:

This did seem to take me one step ahead. But I am still getting the same error. — Kang, Nov 6, 2012 at 0:28
