Can I stop Dreamweaver CS6 from constantly polling the FTP server?

When I work in CS6 I just work directly off the FTP server. I don't work in a large team, check in and check out is a wasted feature for us. So I have the Advanced server settings to automatically upload files when I save them. This has been working pretty well with the exception that Dreamweaver CS6 seems to constantly poll the FTP server anyway. So often times I'll go to save and it will throw out an error that it can't upload the file right now because it's currently interacting with the server.
Inside Dreamweaver I have the FTP log tab open and it's just constantly looking at stuff on the server at random intervals. It's not downloading anything or reconnecting. I'm having no connection problems at all actually outside of this.
I've poked through settings and I can't find anything that says something like "Stop constantly checking the FTP server, it's still there, don't worry about it..."
Here's the error for whatever it's worth. I wouldn't even bother complaining about this except that it happens to me constantly throughout the day. If it was just once or twice I wouldn't care. The other annoying thing is that when the error occurs it does save the file locally which is pointless for my purposes also but since it flags it as saved I have to make a change in order to get it to save and upload. So a lot of times I'm just waiting for it to stop interacting with the FTP server for no good reason, adding a space, backspacing the space and then hitting save again. Seriously obnoxious, please tell me there's a setting to shut this behavior off.

I'll tell you the real answer - because Adobe Dreamweaver's FTP integration is, and has always been, horrendous.   Here I am - working with Dreamweaver in 2013, having worked with Dreamweaver since the year 2000... yes - that is 13 years.  And 13 freaking years later I am still having the SAME Dreamweaver FTP issues since back then!!
Like today - let me tell you my workflow. 
Open Dreamweaver - knowing that this is going to be yet again another painful day because of the FTP situation
Make a few changes to a single file
Connect - it connects instantly
Upload my file.  I'm (relatively) happy.
Work on my file for the next 10 minutes.
Keyboard Shortcuts to save, then upload my file.
Window pops up - Waiting for server
Still waiting for server
Trys to reconnect.
Waiting for server
I cancel.  Disconnect... then guess what...
Window pops up - Waiting for server.
I close that window immediately
Reconnect - its fine
Upload my file immediately.
I have to do this EVERY FREAKING TIME I need to upload a file.   It is beyond rediculous that this wasn't solved in 2002, but no - ELEVEN years after that it still behaves the same!!!!
I know I'm not alone - just google "Dreamweaver FTP Waiting for server", or "dreamweaver ftp dropping", or anything else like that, and you'll find no end of people in pure frustration. 
The only solution that I have found that may actually help ease the pain (doesn't solve the problem unfortuantely) this is something I just found today. 
Go to Preferences > Site settings where you can change FTP connection option : Disconnect after x minutes idle
I have changed that to 1 minute.  Shouldn't have to, but that's all that can be done.
Please Adobe - start from the ground up with CS7 and completely rewrite FTP in Dreamweaver.

  • How can I stop Photoshop CS6 from unwelding imported 3d models?

    Hello,
            Photoshop has an issue right now in which when I import a 3d object (it doesn't matter which format, I've tried obj and cae) then it will split the object apart into multiple objects along where the borders of the uv map are (aka polyunweld). How do I stop it from doing that?
    Here are images demonstrating what I mean exactly.

    The fact that you have no ideas worth sharing does not really surprise me.
    You say it's a fact that I have no ideas worth sharing. You are damned cheeky to a customer who helps pay your salary, lad. What's your problem? Embarrassed by your inept "investigation" of a reported problem? Anyway, how on earth would you know anything about my ideas or their worth?
    It is not an easy problem to solve for a variety of customers that are your audience.
    What? Not easy to solve? Just don't unweld the polygons! Not unwelding is easier than unwelding, surely
    Photoshop has a very diverse community, what you think is good is not what a Photographer thinks makes sense.
    That sounds ridiculous.
    1. You initially insisted that Photoshop doesn't unweld meshes!
    2. Then, after I provided further evidence, you said you would fix the problem.
    3. Now you seem to be suggesting that the software was programmed to unweld meshes because it's "what a Photographer thinks makes sense".
    It's easy to complain about on a forum, and if it is constructive that is fine but you seem to enjoy just complaining or insulting.
    I complain about things at times. I'm insulting at times. But it's a fact that I'm helpful and constructive most of the time. Oh so sorry for not being the perfect contributor to this forum.
    >> I've been waiting 5 months for one simple bug-fix<< I don't know when this was first reported and it's unfortunate we missed that (oh yeah we are human too)  but we do have mechanism's (Bug reports on feedback.photoshop.com) that reach us directly, some of us patrol the forums but we cannot do that full time and ship a product.
    You're completely mistaken again.
    I wasn't talking about the problem in this thread. (Which you've denied exists, then admitted exists and will be fixed, and then suggested to be a design decision on behalf of photographers.)
    I said "one bug" not "this bug".
    The bug which still isn't fixed after 5 months, despite being acknowledged by Adobe, is one that was introduced by the OS X version of the 13.0.1 update. It makes the 3D rendering almost useless for OS X users and did not exist when customers paid $300 for the 3D rendering.

  • How can i stop attached photos from being in the email body?

    I try to send pics often to places for printing and icloud puts them into the body of the email instead of as an attachment. THis can be quite annoying. Advice pleas,   Thank Carol

    When sending from your Mac, when composing the email click on Attach.  In the choose file dialoge, try checking the box that says "Send Windows Friendly Attachments".  From you iOS device, this happens automatically.
    The message may still look as if the photo is embedded rather than attached, but on a Windows computer it will appear as an attachment.  (On a Mac it will appear to be embedded but the attachment can be saved by control-clicking on the image.)

  • How can I stop Adobe Reader from reading (seeking) the floppy drive when opening/closing any PDF?

    Ever since I opened a PDF file from my floppy drive Adobe Reader insists on checking/seeking/reading the floppy drive whenever I open and whenever I close any PDF (not using the floppy).  It is very annoying, as I use many PDFs per day and it creates a delay and noise every time.

    Edit>Preferences
    Under Page Display:
    Where it says "Location of referenced files", if it shows "Floppy Disk A:/" clear the box, or choose an alternate location if you can't clear it.

  • Can't stop still images from scaling in the sequence.********

    I've tried everything at this point.
    Baffled.
    If anyone can help me figure this out.
    please do.
    I cannot get any image to come into the sequence without scaling down to 28%.
    images are 4368 x 2912 and being brought into a sequence that is 1920x816. (cinemascope)
    Help!

    FCP will automatically scale your images down to fit the dimensions of your sequence.
    You could either scale the images to sequence size before importing, (you could export using QT conversion to a form of still image, but probably better off doing it in Photoshop or wherever the images originated from)
    If you want to do any pan/scan with the images, you'd be best served to resize them to slightly larger than your sequence settings, so you've got room to move them around and scale them a bit.
    Or you could change your sequence settings to match the image dimensions (but that would affect what I'm guessing your intended output is to be)
    Hope that helps,
    K

  • How can I stop my iPad from mixing up the order of photos when I sync from my PC?

    Hi-
    I have a 1st generation iPad. I have noticed that when I sync photos from my PC (Windows 7) to the iPad (using iTunes) that the pics do not end up in the same order on the iPad that I had them arranged on my PC. Mostly this is not too much of a problem. But recently, I have a batch of photos that really need to be in a particular order. I spent a lot of time on my PC naming them in such a way that they'd STAY in the order I desire. There are about 185 of them, so this took a lot of work! How can I keep them in the order I want when I sync to the iPad?
    Thanks for your help-
    Betsy

    Hi again-
    Just as a final follow-up on this topic, I have been able to change the "date taken" property of each photo file without downloading any extra software. In the Windows Explorer, all I have to do is select the file and then I can edit the date in the properties pane at the bottom of the window. Since I have to change each file to a unique date so that I can control their order on the iPad, I have to do this all by hand anyway, so I did not spend much time looking for a software to do it.
    Just in case this might help someone else, I thought I'd post it.

  • Can I stop a report from Re-executing the query when I go back to that page

    I have a report that has a complicated query and looks at a lot of information to display the results. This query then links of to show details of individual items that were displayed in the result. But when I hit the back button on the browser, it executes the query again and it takes a while for the page to load.
    Is there any way to stop this and only execute the query when the User pushes a Button on the page else display the previous results.
    Thanks
    Sriram

    Another alternative is to make that detail link open in a popup window using
    javascript:popupURL(...);This way, the complicated report page is always visible.

  • How can I stop my phone from going into the lock screen while talking on it? (New issue with ios 6)

    Prior to ios 6, I could talk on my phone and have the mute button available. Now it goes into lock mode while speaking on the phone. This is terribly annoying when on conference calls and you want to mute/unmute, or just hang up a call. I now have to swipe to unlock, go to phone, and hang up or unmute. I've tried upping my timeout, but that just delays the inevitable.

    Yep, it's a pain.  What's even more concerning is that at the Genius Bar, he was trying to tell me that this is the was it was supposed to be, so they probably fixed it in OS 6.  He said it is for people that are using "Bluetooth" and want to keep the phone in their pockets".  Ridiculous!  What compounds the issue is that the Apple Reps have no clue as to what's going on, and either do the senior tech's on the phone.  As I said in my message, this has made it very cumbersome, and makes it very difficult for those who need to use wired headsets.

  • How can I stop my phone from muting in the middle of calls?

    When pressing "send" and making a call, Six boxes pop up on the screen, one of them being the muting option.   My problem is that face or ear touch this button while I'm in the middle of a call.  I need to be able to manipulate the options that come on the screen everytime a call is placed, in this case being able to have no options on the screen while in the middle of a call.  Is this possible? if not, it should be; on the next upgrade.
    -Thanks

  • When panning full left and right in logic pro 9, how can i stop one side from bleeding into the other?

    I'm creating a Click track for live performance. I Have 3 audio tracks panned full left (-64) and a Click track panned full right (63) but when I play the track they bleed into each other. If anyone knows a way around this that'd be great

    Eddie,
    I just ran a test on my G5 Logic system (Logic 9.02) with an internal RME PCI 8in/8out Audio Card and I get perfect separation bouncing to a stereo audio file using standard panning. Click on one side and a couple of crunchy guitars on the other. Each side is completely separate.
    So, it seems to point to your hardware unless you have some other audio routing that we've missed.
    I'm re-doing my setup so I may try a couple of other tests as I go along.

  • How can i stop internet media from flooding elements 6?

    how can I stop elements 6 from constantly importing internet photos and flooding my memory?

    PSE isn't importing photos off the internet, but it could be importing photos from your hard drive that are being placed there as you browse the internet.
    It's likely that you've told PSE to import all new photos on your hard drive using the Watched Folders mechanism.
    In the Organizer, go to File > Watch Folders...
    See the list of folders PSE is currently watching.
    Check the setting near the bottom of the dialog as to what PSE should do when it finds new images in the folders it is watching.
    Make any necessary changes to have it do what you want it to do.
    Cheers

  • How can I stop Dreamweaver from inserting spaces after variables?

    How can I stop Dreamweaver from inserting spaces after
    variables?
    Example:
    "...write to you@<!--#echo var="uu" --> and ..."
    is changed by DreamWeaver to
    "...write to you@
    <!--#echo var="uu" -->
    and...>
    When saving or doing other editing, DreamWeaver adds a space
    and a line break before and after the variable. The line break
    isn't hard and doesn't show, but the spaces added before and after
    the variable DO show in browsers. That looks rather stupid and
    incompetent, and requires hand editing on the server after
    uploading.
    Line wrap and code formatting are turned off.
    Is manual correction after uploading the only solution to
    this problem?
    Thanks
    DearWebby

    DearWebby,
    We already discussed this offline, but I want to post the fix
    here for
    the sake of posterity:
    1. Edit > Tag Libraries…
    2. Open HTML Tags folder
    3. Select "directive" folder icon (not really a folder)
    4. Change Line breaks: setting to "No line breaks"
    5. Click OK

  • On how many systems can i install dreamweaver cs6

    About a month ago i have format my whole old pc with also dreamweaver cs6 deleted (i had troubles with my whole pc, thats the reason to format the whole pc) I sell the empty pc. only windows 7 on it.
    Now i have an new pc. and i have installed dreamweaver cs6 on it. it works ok.
    My question is: on how many computers can i install dreamweaver cs6
    I have in my home 2 times the program installed. one on this pc and one on the pc that i selled (The program dreamweaver cs6 was not anymore on that pc that i selled. I had deleted it)
    Now I would like to sell the adobe dreamweaver cs6, becaus i don't need it anymore. is this possible? because i had installed it on two systems in my home. one on this system and one on a system that i selled (deleted the DWcs6 on the selled pc).

    You seem to be asking two different questions.
    The answer to how many computers you can install Dreamweaver on is two. However, if you want to sell Dreamweaver, you must transfer the licence entirely to the other person. In other words, you can't keep Dreamweaver on one of your computers, and sell the other permitted installation to someone else.
    Details of how to tranfer the licence (or sell your copy) can be found here: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/transfer-product-license.html.
    However, you say that you deleted your version from one computer. That's not enough. You should have deactivated it first. You will need to get Adobe to cancel the activation on the computer you no longer have. Otherwise, the person who buys from you won't be able to install on two computers.
    This is a user-to-user forum. If you need further help, contact Adobe Customer Support directly.
