Not sure if this is all, but this part:

    if (JobHander.MaxInstances == 0) {
            jConfirm('Continue?', 'Current Maximum Instances', function (ans) {
                if (!ans)
                    return;
            });
    }

probably doesn't do what you want. It is exiting the function(ans) { ... } function, while you probably want to exit the whole handler, i.e. $("#UpdateJobHandler").click(function () { ... }. If so, you would need to do similar to what you do below - i.e. put the whole thing in function(ans) { ... }, after the return. Probably best to separate into smaller functions.

EDIT: Something along these lines:

    function afterContinue() {
       var json = $.toJSON(JobHander);

       $.ajax({
          // ... all other lines here ...
       });
    }

    if (JobHander.MaxInstances == 0) {
            jConfirm('Continue?', 'Current Maximum Instances', function (ans) {
                if (ans) {
                   afterContinue();
                }
            });
    }

You can do similar thing for all the success functions.

Another example, you can rewrite the Instances check like this:

            function afterInstances() {
                        var JobHandlerNew = getJobHandler();
                        JobHandlerNew.FinalUpdate = "Yes";

                        // ... and everything under else branch ...
            }

            if (alertM == "Instances") {
                jConfirm(message, 'Instances Confirmation?', function (answer) {
                    if (answer) {
                       afterInstances();
                    }
                });
            }

Important - rename the methods (afterContinue, afterInstances, ...) to have some name that means something useful to someone reading this in the future.
