message saying I have no internet connection when I try to upload

Often when I have made a slideshow and am attempting to upload it to YouTube, I will get a message saying my attempt has failed because I have no internet connection.
I have broadband, so am always connected when this happens.
Any ideas what causes this, please?

Hi,

Might be a firewall/security setting that is preventing the program from successfully accessing the Internet. To the program, that effectively looks like a lack of Internet connection.

My firewall is set to 'trust' magix.
I uploaded a few slideshows in a row and some uploaded ok some didn't.
I have now managed to successfully upload them thanx.

Thanx for reply.

Can you explain what you did to fix it? it might help others

I just kept starting again re trying an upload to youtube.
And eventually my slideshow uploaded.
So I'm guessing it was an intermittent fault when trying to connect to magix?

I had my browser open in a forum and I had my email open, too. Emails came through so my internet connection at home was ok.
That's all I can think of.
