Accessing Help in DreamWeaver

I am a new user for DreamWeaver. The only help that I have
access to is a pdf file. Am I the only one who is unable to use the
F1 key to access help in DreamWeaver?? I have uninstalled and
re-installed but that didn't change anything.
This is the response listed on the help screen:
"This topic is in the Help system of another product. To view
the topic, install that product. about:blank"
I don't understand this and the technical support in Adobe
didn't help me either.

> I have DeamWeaver CS3 and I am using Windows XP
till it's sorted out- there is a live copy of the dw help
files here:

  • Accessing help causes Dreamweaver to crash

    I'm quite frustrated due to the crash of all help functions
    that are not on the web for my new install of Dreamweaver. I'm
    running on an HP laptop and when I go to the help menu or click on
    a help button I get the "send / don't send" crash dialogue for
    Dreamweaver.
    If I go to the help files directly, outside of Dreamweaver, I
    can open them correctly.
    Any idea what might be tangled up in the install?

  • 2011 15 in Mac Book Pro. Can't access help. Keep getting error message computer not connected to internet. But compute is connected to internet.

    When I try to access help in my 2011 MacBook Pro I get an error message that I'm not connected to the internet. But I know I am connected to the internet because I'm getting email and surfing the web at the same time. Any ideas?

    Firewall of some type blocking whatever port the help system uses?

  • How does one access "footers" in Dreamweaver cs6?

    How does one access "footers" in Dreamweaver cs6?

    How does one access "footers" in Dreamweaver cs6?
    Depends on your code.  If your site uses Server-side Includes, it's quite possible the footers are in a separate file in your site folder such as footer.php or footer.incl, or footer.html.
    If that's the case here, you need a local testing server to see them in your parent page.

  • Help in dreamweaver!

    I will try to explain this the best that i can. I am new to
    web design, so there may be a simple solution to my problem:
    I am manually creating text logos from another site to use as
    my buttons. I am placing them on the left side of my site
    indivually. Heres an example:
    ABOUT US
    CONTACT US
    WHAT WE DO
    I will eventually link these other pages that i create. What
    i would like to know is how to utilize the space to the right of
    the buttons. I want to place a large picture or a couple of small
    ones next to the buttons but i cant seem to get the cursor to move
    over anymore. Please keep in mind that i can only design in desigh
    mode not code. But i can ocasionally flip to code to insert other
    codes as needed. I simply place the cursor where i want it in
    design, flip it to code, paste the code i copied, the switch back
    to design code. But i would like like to find out how to place a
    large picture next to all of the buttons that i have on the left
    side of my webpage(to utilize space). I hope i explained myself
    well enough. Any help is appreciatted. Thanks

    Vhova,
    I see that you are new to web design. The question about what
    you wanted to accomplish this fundamental task of simple thing you
    want with nav bars and things like that. To make it happen,
    ideally, you need to get both of your hands dirty under the hood of
    HTML (and eventually with CSS) will help a lot.
    That is to say, once you find some comfort zone working with
    HTML/CSS, the more comfortable you eventually be felt in time.
    I am sorry it might be of a bit blunt, but this gets to the
    point at all once to the bulleye directing you to the right path on
    your way to learn HTML/CSS. Because there are lot of factors
    involved, different issues will come up and go. For one,
    troubleshooting some problem that might arise from time to time,
    with some understanding on how HTML works, then you will be able to
    figure this out.
    Also, please try to use F1 help within Dreamweaver to obtain
    fundamentals of how Dreamweaver works for you and getting you
    started. Additionally, there are lot of great tutorial or steps at
    Dreamweaver Developers, and feel free to learn more about CSS under
    submenu links at DW Developers page.
    Hope that helps you get started more effective and productive
    way to learn HTML and CSS.

  • How do You import an MS Access MDB into Dreamweaver CS5?

    Hi;
    How do You import an MS Access MDB into Dreamweaver CS5?
    Developed a DBase application for a vertical market using MS Access. Worked on it for over a decade.
    Have been in contact with a rather large company and we are talking about licensing my program with them.
    BUT; they want it "On the Cloud"
    Here is what needs to be accomplished. Ideally a user can log in from anywhere, (similar to on-line banking), enter data and print reports.
    Read this a few days ago:
    "If I were in your situation and felt that there's a growth market for your offerings, I would personally go with a PHP/MySQL-based model. The printing issue can be readily resolved with PDF-based output.
    So the Querys, Forms and VBA Code needs to be brought in from MS Access to Dreamweaver.
    Can this be done?  Or is there a better way that I haven't learned yet?
    Would someone be so kind and point me in the correct direction.
    Thank You for taking the time to read this post.
    Andy

    >Can this be done?
    No, not any way that I know of. You would need to completely rewrite this as a web application. Obviously the MS Access tables can be migrated to MySQL and the Access queries converted to views. But the forms and custom code needs to be written from scratch in html and your choice of server side programming language.

    sorry ab the multiple post, it was urgent for me to
    know the answer.
    I've JDK 1.4.2 and JAccessHelper should work with 1.3
    or later
    Can there be some kind of path problems?No, I doubt it. It's just some internal app failure - looks like it's trying to determine the running Java version, and is not doing a good job at it. But the failure has nothing per se to Java, it's that specific app - what are we supposed to know about that app though?

  • Need Dreamweaver CS6 Help (was: Dreamweaver CS6)

    everytime I seek help with dreamweaver CS6 it gives me Dreamweaver CC info. How can I get informations and answers on CS6 only?

    Hi Eric,
    From what I understand, we are not going to have version based documentation any more. The What's New documentation will cover topics that have changed in a particular version.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe reader 11.0.07 can not access help option

    I just downloaded adobe reader 11.0.07 version and I haven't signed up for the paid options, I only use this for reading
    Is this why I can't access help option on adobe reader 11.0.07?
    Any insight is appreciated!

    Dear Pat,
    Thank you for your email.  My operating system is Windows XP and my default browser is google chrome.
    When I click on help on Adobe Reader 11.0.07 and select "Adobe Reader XI Help".  I receive an error message:
    "Online help content cannot be displayed.  Verify you can launch your web browser and have access to the internet."
    Maybe you can make sense of this!
    Thanks,

  • Can't access HELP in Photoshop CS5

    When I click on Help in Photoshop CS5 (installed yesterday), I recieve a popup message from Adobe Community  Help saying "The requested page requires an Internet connection," and I cannot do anything with the Help screen.
    I have an Internet connection.  In fact, if I open my Photoshop CS4 program, I can access the Community Help, it opens IE to the online help page for Photoshop CS4, where in the lower right-hand corner there is a yellow box with a link to CS5 help which if I click on it produces the Photoshop CS5 Help page.
    So why can't I access HELP from CS5 Photoshop directly,and how do I tell CS5 that I have an Internet connection.
    As a side note, this is also a problem with Illustrator CS5.

    The problem is solved.
    I went and found the executable for Community Help.  It is Adobe Help.exe.  I then ran it and received the following message: To access or download help, connect to the Internet or deselect “Display Local Help Contents only” in Preferences.
    Well, I could not find any such thing in Photoshop preferences. It then dawned on me that I should be looking in the preferences of Community Help.  And there it was—the option to display local content only.  However, it was set to no, so I should be seeing help from the Internet.
    That is when the previous remark about the firewall came back to me, and I realized that what was needed was to open the firewall for Adobe Help.exe and not for Photoshop.
    Thanks for your assistance

  • Where is Access Help (on-disk help)

    My T500 came pre-loaded with Vista and I did a clean install of Win 7 x64 using the DVD from Lenovo.
    When I press the ThinkVantage button, the ThinkVantage Toolbox pops up.  Although this provices a link to on-line help, I wanted to get the Access Help on-disk help files.  I downloaded the file from Lenovo (6htb02us and it went through the install routine OK.  The ThinkVantage button still brings up the Toolbox.  There is a folder C:\Program Files (x86)\ThinkVantage\AHLP, but the only files there are the AccessHelp icon and DISKAHLP.ID and DISKAHLP.VER files.
    The actual help files  (*.chm) seem to be in C:\Win\Drivers\AHLP, but none of the executables in that directory or its subdirectories seems to actually run the help program.
    How do I get AccessHelp to run?  What is the name of the executable and where should it be located?

    I am really new to all this myself, and my month-old Thinkpad came with W7 factory-installed. I have no idea if this will help you, since you upgraded, but I access my *incomplete* (missing physical parts key guide that would match up with the numbers on the diagram pictures, as well as a glossary that would define unfamiliar terms and acronyms in the missing key guide) offline Lenovo Access Help files by pointing mouse at Start button on the left end of my main toolbar, which drops down (I keep my toolbar on the top of the screen) a menu with two lists: on the far left it lists recently used programs, then the list on the right is topped with the avatar icon that I chose for the first page where I log in my password, followed by my name, and then a number of various entries like Pictures, Documents, Favorites, Computer, Control Panel, etc., ending with Run... Right before Run..., there is an entry for Help and Support. When I click Help and Support, I get a window with 5 different options groups, and the offline Lenovo Access Help files is the first set in the upper left corner of the window. Sorry, I don't know if this will work for you, or if you have already tried it, just my naÏve 2¢. Good luck!

  • My Ipad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help.

    My IPad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol appears against the wifi network, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help. My collegue who also has an Ipad can access the same wifi with ease, so it must be something to do with the settings on my machine, although checking the two machines, there appears to be no difference in the settings.

    My experience with hotel wifi is that it's an open, and unsecured, connection, but unless you agree to their terms on a launch page, you can't go any further or connect. Sometimes I need to force safari to come up and even make it go to a page, to trigger the auto load of the 'agree to our terms' page.
    Unless your machine is work provided so maybe could be blocked from unsecured net access?

  • Cannot open Access Help

    I have a Thinkpad T500 with WINDOWS 7. In spite of using recovery discs (advice Lenovo), I am not able to open the so-called on-line handbook via the link ACCESS HELP (you come there via HELP AND SUPPORT). I see the message popping up: "cannot open the file masteraibl.hcm::/welcome.htm".  I did hardly use or transport this labtop and no other programmes are on the labtop excepted the Norton security. The other links you see when clicking on HELP AND SUPPORT all work. I estimate that it is an error in the software in the connection between WINDOWS 7 and the LENOVO ACCESS HELP. Any help to overcome this weird problem is welcome.

    Anything you put inside your home folder, except for ~/Public and ~/Sites, is inaccessible to any other user on your Mac.
    If the app you run requires items to be placed in ~/Library, you'll need to make duplicate copies of those and put them in the ~/Library of your other user account.
    The easiest way to do this is to temporarily move the items from ~/Library to ~/Public. Then log into your other account, and copy them from the other user's public folder to ~/Library. Then log back into the other account and return the items to ~/Library.
    Keep in mind that changes made to these items in one account won't be made automatically in the other account. You'll have to make any changes twice.
    A better option, if the app supports it, might be to keep the items in /Library at the root level of your boot drive instead. All users can read files in there by default.
