An unknown error occurred when Dreamweaver tried to connect to this Contrib

Hello all,
I just started having a Dreamweaver problem that's perplexing me...
I have 2 machines, a G4 and a G5 both running Dreamweaver ( I have MX2004 and 8 on both machines, this problem effects both versions on the G5 only).
Everything was humming along just fine until the other day when suddenly I was receiving error messages on my G5 stating
"An unknown error occurred when Dreamweaver tried to connect to this Contribute site".
Then my local folder containing the website that I was working on would go gray (in Dreamweaver) and lose it's folder icon. It would still look like it was there, just no icon. When I would click on the drop down triangle it would state, " The local root folder, (and the folders name), does not exist. Please select a new local folder by clicking the Manage Sites button".
I then ran a couple of tests on the G4 and it connected fine, I was able to edit, upload/download, everything as usual. I then attempted to connect to the site with Transmit on the G5...no problem.
In the site definition I remembered that it may be set up to work with Contribute sites, but this was not the case, the box was unchecked.
I then had the idea to export the site key from the G4 and grab it onto the G5 and import it into Dreamweaver...I did this AND IT WORKED! Once...after that back to the 2 usual errors.
I found a work around for now...do my editing/site building in Dreamweaver, and upload with Transmit...this works fine...I've found that the errors only happen AFTER I've connected with the site(s). I've tried this with the other sites I maintain and it was the exact same thing.
Are there any similar experiences out there? This has really got me stumped... can't imagine what it is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
G5 Dual 2, G4 Dual 1.4 GHZ, iBook Graphite SE   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

my firewall is off, everything worked up until a couple days ago when it randomly stopped working

    Hello,
    I have had a BT Vision package for a few months but we recently moved house and wanted to transfer our services. Since moving in, we have got the telephone, internet and TV channels working however we are struggling with the additional TV services (i.e. catch up, recording, on demand).
    Everytime we try to play something on catch up or via on demand, or try to play a recorded programme, it attempts to load but then the following error message appears at the bottom of the screen in a red box - 'An unknown error occurred when trying to play the video OutputProtectionEnableFailed'
    I have phoned BT's technical department on several occasions who have not been able to resolve the issue. I have tried Googling this error message and searching BT's website however I cannot find any comments about this error. BT have offered to send a technician out however will automatically charge £99 if this is an error with the cable rather than the BT box. This is a lot of money and I am not able to risk this potential charge when I'm not sure what the problem might be.
    If anyone know's what might be causing this , or has had the same error message themselves, I would be very grateful to know.
    Many thanks,
    SHyde

  • Unknown error occurred when trying to play film clip in Facebook.

    Since the latest update I have problems when I want to watch film clips posted on Facebook.
    This only happens with clips that are shown "in" Facebook, if it's a link to a clip outside of Fb it's not a problem.
    When trying to watch a clip it says, either directly or various times into the clip, "An unknown error occurred when trying to play a film clip".
    if I try over and over again the clip finally plays to its full length but it really annoys me.
    Anybody got an idea?

    We got some reports of this lately and as you say, it only happens in Facebook.
    Try clearing data for the Facebook app under Settings -> Apps and se eif that helps. If not, please see this thread: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1-Z1s/Facebook-Videos-not-playing/m-p/727861

    Hi chiekoo,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#error21
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    Hi,
    From your description, it seems that the address
    sales@[domain].com has been used in another mailbox. I recommend you use the following cmdlet to find out which mailbox is using this address.
    Get-recipient | Where {$_.EmailAddresses -match "[email protected]"} | select Identity, DisplayName, RecipientType. The mailbox which is using this address will show up in the result.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.

    Locate and Delete the File com.apple.appleworks.plist
    Locate and Open the Folder AppleWorks
    In the AppleWorks folder, delete the following files:
    AppleWorks 6 Assistants Cache
    AppleWorks 6 Preferences
    AppleWorks 6 Translators Cache
    Optional:

    This file contains your Button Bar preferences. If you have made changes to the Button Bar, but hanve NO issues that can be traced to the Button Bar, it may be left in place.

    Step 4:  Execute PFAL (RHALEINI)for Obj Type S and Transfer mode as Insert
    Step 5:  Execute PFAL (RHALEINI)for Obj Type P and Transfer mode as Insert
    All IDOC created in update mode (Step 1 & 2) are green in receiving e-recruitment system but IDOC getting create in Insert mode (Step 3 ,4 &5) are in status 51/52 I mean Red.
    Error messages are as below:
    1) An error occurred when you tried to insert infotype 1001 using RH_INSERT_INFTY (return code 3).
    2) You tried to create a relationship from object 01S 76037685 to object 01AGC:R3HCM:OM_DISPLAY_US. However, object 01AGC:R3HCM:OM_DISPLAY_US does not exist or is not active in the period from 20110101 to 99991231

    Dear Krishna,
    Hope you are doing good.
    I know its very late in getting into this conversation. Since I am also experiencing the same issue, i need some inputs from you.
    The error you posted on the top is same what i am getting when I am doing data transfers from SAP HR to E-Rec systems. Our iDoc is working file in Development server but not in Quality server. I am experiencing the same errors what you have mentioned above.
    When i checked the error, this error has occurred in subroutine read_namtb for structure  of infotype.
    Proceedure is to Check the entry for infotype  in table T777D (structure, IDoc segment,
    expanded structure) and the corresponding structures.
    As you have resolved this issue before, can you please suggest what needs to be maintained in the tables such as T777D, T777E, and T777Z.
    Appreciate your valuable inputs on this.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot connect airport express to ipad I keep receiving the message: "an unexpected error occurred" when I try to connect my Ipad to my airport express.  Does anyone have a solution?

    cannot connect airport express to ipad
    I keep receiving the message: "an unexpected error occurred" when I try to connect my Ipad to my airport express.  Does anyone have a solution?

    I could not "see" my Express via my wireless router or via the Airport Utility until I reset it to Factory Settings by unplugging it then holding in the tiny reset button while plugging it back in, waiting for the flashing yellow LED signal before letting go.
    Then I set it up to DHCP - "connect to wireless network" and DOWNGRADED the firmware to 7.3.x
    I would tell you the exact Firmware but I can no longer "see" the Airport express............ AGAIN or still.....
    BUT at least I am listening to music streaming from my MacBook Pro... Hmmm.
    I log back into the router (Linksys WRT110) and it no longer shows the Airport Express as a DHCP client AND the Airport utility can no longer "find" any Airport Devices..
    So if I don't move, or there are no cosmic events, or maybe my KARMA is effecting the device or my "VIBES" are good, but I'm not sure if will continue to work.. Sure would like to use this little device from hel*.
    Since I have had this Airport Express I have spent many hours trying to get it to work.
    It works just long enough to fool me and then takes a dump...
    Maybe this time?
    5 Minute later...
    Music was playing. I went into iTunes and switched from Airtunes to Computer speakers. When I tried to switch it back GUESS WHAT?
    [An unknown error (-15006) occurred while trying to connect to remote speaker "Airtunes"]
    Wonderful Green LED though. Totally useless piece of equipment AFAIK.

    The ipad"ipad" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (16). How do I resolve this error?

    Your error code falls within the 10-47 range mentioned here.
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020, 1669.
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Error 1015 might happen after making unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
    Use recovery mode to restore your device
    Related errors: 1015, “The required resource can't be found.”
    You might see these error messages if your device has a beta version of iOS or if you're installing an older version of iOS (downgrading). Use recovery mode to restore your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Quit virtualization software
    Quit any virtualization software (such as Parallels or VMware) that’s running on your Mac. Then use the latest version of iTunes to restore your device.
