    Try to add a new ftp account and try using it. I have some similar problem before also and using a new ftp account fixed my issue.

    I used to have that problem when I was using PHP with FastCGI.
    I had to get rid of FastCGI and it worked fine after that.

    I it means that you are either using the wrong information, or your host is blocking the connection. some hosts require you to submit safe IP addresses that are allowed to connect.
    You need to take it up with them.

    Not necessarily, try talking to your host maybe they know what exactly is causing it.

    Ask your host to Synchronize Passwords. It will work for you.
