CS3 ftp problems

Hi I have a client who wants to use contribute. I set it up
on my computer to test it out.
I was able to edit frm contribute BUT after that when I went
into DW I could not up load any images (even small 1kb .gifs) I
kept receiving the error:
images:ethernetcable.jpg - error occurred - An FTP error
occurred - cannot put ethernetcable.jpg. Access Denied. The file
may not exist, or there could be a permission problem.
2column:p7dejavu:img:dj_logo.jpg - same - not transferred
images:opertator3.jpg - error occurred - An FTP error
occurred - cannot put opertator3.jpg. Access Denied. The file may
not exist, or there could be a permission problem.
I tried to remove the contribue access (though I am still
prompted the site is set up for contribue depsite having created a
new root folder)
I then downloaded another ftp program (cyberduck.ch) I was
able to upload the images to my server outside of dreamweaver but
they are not showing up on my webpage. (when i look at remote
server I can see them in correct folder).
I am totally lost on what to do, my hosting company has no
clue why this is.
ANY SUGGESTIONS?????

thanks for your reply.
I could not see the mm_ notes folders on my server or in my
route folder via dreamweaver but I found them in my route folder
when on my computer through finder. (there was one folder called mm
and one called notes) I moved both to trash but I am still getting
prompt this site is set up for contribute compatibilty and the same
error when I try to upload.
any ideas on what i should do???

Dreamweaver CS3 FTP problem

Hi,
I am unable to connect to my remote server using my new copy
of Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
When I test the FTP connection I get an error message
I can connect without problems to my remote server using
Microsoft Frontpage and the exact same FTP address, login, and
password - so it is not the server which is at fault
Things I have tried without success
My hosting company told me to either leave the host directory
box blank or put a / in it. Neither of these options work
I have tried retyping my login details carefully.
I have tried checking the ‘use passive FTP’ box
I have tried putting a colon and the port number after the
FTP address
I have tried writing the FTP address with and without the
ftp:// symbol
I have tried setting the FTP time out preferences at 60secs,
30 secs, 120 secs, 10 secs, and 5 secs
I am wondering what else to try, and how I can check whether
or not the software is being blocked by a firewall (in Norton for
example - my windows firewall is switched off) as I do remember
getting a message about this during the install. Or would it be a
good idea to uninstall and reinstall the software?
I would be most grateful for any further information or
advice.
Many thanks
Pippa

> When I test the FTP connection I get an error message
What is the error message?
Here's my experience.
1. A firewall (any firewall, including but not restricted to
SP2) may be
blocking your attempts. It's best to completely disable them
while you are
troubleshooting this.
2. The FTP host field should usually always be filled in like
this -
''www.domain.com'' (without the quotes) and with NO leading
protocol (e.g.,
http:// or ftp://) (of course, you can always
use the IP address, too).
3. Enabling Passive FTP (usually the default for 3rd party
FTP programs) in
your Remote site definition can often be the gating factor in
a balky FTP
connection.
Make sure you use those guidelines and usually your
connection problem will
be solved.
By the way, if you find that #1 allows the connection to
proceed, then you
have to figure out what it is about your firewall that is
blocking
transmissions. CS3 allows you to fine tune firewall support
via the
Remote site definition, but you may also need to do a very
simple thing of
permitting CS3 to make outgoing connections in the Firewall
configuration.

CS3 reinstall problem - asking for uninstalled CS4 beta

I have a PowerBook G4 with 1.5 Gb RAM running Mac OS 10.4.11. I have the CS3 Suite installed and last year downloaded a beta copy of Fireworks CS4. After using it a bit, I uninstalled Fireworks CS4 with the Adobe uninstaller.
I recently had a problem with Bridge and decided to uninstall and reinstall the software. I uninstalled Photoshop CS3 (in order to uninstall Bridge) and when I began to reinstall Photoshop, the installer ask me to insert the Fireworks CS4 disk! Since I don't have that disk, I hit cancel and the install terminated (I tried this multiple times and rebooted each time)
I then downloaded and ran Adobe's CS4 Cleanup app. It found NO CS4 apps to clean up.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Mark

Thanks Neil and Buko for your input. Here's where things stand now:
1) I uninstalled FW CS4
2) I uninstalled CS3
3) I ran Cleanup Script
4) I repaired permissions using Disk First Aid
5) I reinstalled CS3
The problems with Bridge remained (sluggish, won't display icons properly, won't show a preview image, won't operate the folder list, etc.).
So I called Adobe support. Unfortunately, because I am having problems installing CS3 and NOT CS4, support is NOT FREE. The rep was helpful though -- she pointed me to document number 331594 (Diagnosing Bridge problems) and told me to start there. I followed EVERY step . . . disable start-up scripts, reverted to original preferences, cleaned up the cache, disabled the folder windows, and the problems remain.
Guess I'll have to pay . . .
Lesson learned: don't trial Adobe software. That's when my problems began.

NAS200 Ftp problem

Hi,
I have a little problem with my NAS200. When I try to connect to ftp, I got an error like this:
200 transfer type changed to ascii
227 entering passive mode
Whats wrong ?

Hi gieras. Has this worked before? Have you tried to access it using another computer? Possble reason why you can't access it is Windows firewall settings on your computer. I am not really familiar with the error codes that you mentioned but I've read another post here that may help: https://community.linksys.com/t5/Network-Storage/NAS200-FTP-Problem/td-p/120996

Premiere CS3 Reinstall Problem

I am currently running Windows XP Pro on a Matrox Axio system in which the CS3 Creative Suite was already installed for me upon purchase. As of late I've had problems with Quicktime (Premiere and After Effects no longer see it as a compatible format) and I was hoping that as a solution, I could reinstall Premiere and After Effects from the original discs.
This theory might work but when I get the disc to the Progress portion of the reinstall, it asks me to "insert CS3 Production Premium Disc 1 into drive \\prod\Adobeapps". I don't claim to be an expert but I just cannot figure out what the installer is asking me to do and I'm very frustrated. I tried a multitude of Quicktime-related fixes that didn't yield results and I was really hoping to try this particular fix to see if it works. Does anyone have experience with this error? If so, what was your method of bypassing it?
If this helps in any way, Quicktime stopped working with my system when one day Premiere couldn't get past the CompilerAIFF.prm during the initial program load. I went back a few hours on a system restore and when I got Premiere up and running again, Quicktime was no longer a viable option. I've tried totally reinstalling stand alone Quicktime (and I did use the Windows Installer Clean Up to remove iTunes and Quicktime before the reinstall) and I've tried repairing Quicktime in the Control Panel, and helped. In fact, attempting to repair Quicktime led to a "fatal error on install" and put me back where Premiere got hung up on the CompilerAIFF.prm again.
Any help I could get would be much appreciated.

Thanks Neil and Buko for your input. Here's where things stand now:
1) I uninstalled FW CS4
2) I uninstalled CS3
3) I ran Cleanup Script

FTP Problems with Dreamweaver 8

The webmaster for the library I work for recently had
difficulty with her computer. She did a system restore from her
discs, and, after that, reinstalled Dreamweaver 8. She sent me an
email to let me know she needed my assistance setting her DW FTP
back up.
While her computer was down I decided to reorganize the
website files. There were dozens of old files and most of the
images and html were scattered throught the main part of the file
tree. She really liked the changes, but, after connecting her to
the site and downloading all the files, a problem arose.
Once she got her laptop back home every time she'd connect to
the FTP she got a group of folders named "Windows, Linux,
Speedtest" and a few others. I contacted our webhost and they told
me this meant she was logging in anonymously. We have our login
name and password in correctly, though, so this shouldn't happen.
No one at our ISP could help me do to them not being familiar with
Dreamweaver.
After playing around with the machine a bit I found that if I
deleted the site from the FTP and re-did it using the same folders
then the first connection was succesful. But, after disconnecting,
the same problem happens again.
I found this article and wondered if it could be causing our
problem.
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=3491671c
The only thing that makes me think it might not be is the
fact that our login and password stays in the box, but, for some
reason, the FTP is connecting anonymously. Could her doing a
recovery have led to this? Maybe there's an update she needs to
apply that she didn't get after doing the recovery?

It's hard to know what kind of things happened with your
moving stuff around
outside of DW.
Suffice it to say that most FTP problems are router/firewall
related. Does
this help at all?

Viewing large Illustrator CS3 files problem

I use bridge to browse through previous work in created in Illustrator CS3.
Problem - when viewing these files in Bridge some files (whatever their dimensions) show as large thumbnails and others (with the same AI dimensions) are small and do not seem to stretch in Bridge?
Can anyone explain how to stretch the thumbnail in Bridge.

Sorted - I need to save the CS3 file with 'create pdf compatible file' checked in the options, and it then opens as a large thumbnail in bridge.

Dreamweaver CS3 ftp won't connect

Very unusual ftp problem: Server is MS IIS. I have multiple
Dreamweaver sites defined for this server. Been using them for
years. All sites connect fine except one. The one initially worked.
For the one problem site, clicking the Test button in Remote Info
tab connects just fine. Clicking the Connect button in Files will
time out every time. Using WSFTP to the same site and folder works
just fine. The only difference between this site and the ones that
work is the folder name. They even share the same parent folder.
ftp connection parameters are the same. How can this be?

I solved it myself. It turned out to be a corrupt site
definition in Dreamweaver. By deleting the site, then recreating
it, everything works as it should.

Dreamweaver CS3 strange FTP problem

Helllo,
I have just passed from windows to Mac (I got Leopard) .... I
have installed Dreamweaver CS3
and I have imported all the site definition (like Host FTP,
username, password, etc...) from the windows version
But when I try to connect to any server, I recive this error
"An FTP error occured - cannot make connection to host
no response from the server this may be due to one or more
reasons:
- Accessing the server requires firewall settings that aren't
properly set. Please verify that the firewall settings in the Site
category of the Preferences dialog box are properly set, and that
the Use Firewall option in the Site definition dialog box is
selected.
- The server may be accepting only passive mode or only
active mode. Toggling the "Use Passive FTP" checkbox may help you
establish a connection.
- If you are connecting to an IPv6 enabled server, please
select "Use IPv6 transfer mode" checkbox in the Advanced site
definition dialog.
- Your local firewall may be blocking the incoming FTP data.
Please disable it to see if it makes a difference.
- It is possible your FTP may be using a non-standard FTP
port (21). If you need to specify a non-standard port, enter the
port number after host name separated by a colon":". "
I have tryed to use other FTP programs and I got mix results:
Cyber Duck and Fetch are working
Fugu and Filezilla for Mac do not connect to any server
I am clueless .... .... can someone give me a hand?
thanks in advance

Are you running a firewall?

FTP problem on iWeb

G'day, I have just re built my website using iWeb 09. I built it many years ago using dreamweaver 2!!. I have just tried publishing the site using FTP but it keeps saying "unable to connect please verify your settings etc'" I am using the same settings that I have used on dreamweaver ( i have CS3 now ) dreamweaver connects to my sit ...but iWeb wont using the same settings. Has anyone else come across this problem? Is it possible to open my iWeb built site in dreamweaver and then publish from there? Thank you to anyone that takes the time to help out.
Cheers

Not sure if this helps your situation, but I just figured out two things that made my iWeb09 finally upload by ftp okay. First, the directory/path name you type in should not include the domain name (i.e. httpdocs/foldername), but without http://www.url.com/. That's because you already typed in the domain name elsewhere.
Second, iWeb09 is publishing to the right path (windows based ftp server), so I can see that the folder and files have arrived my ftp server, but the link that iWeb09 created is wrong.
So if click on VISIT button, you can see the path name iWeb09 created is missing the directory/path name.
iWeb only gave me the http://www.url.com/iWeb_SiteName. I had to add the right path which was http://www.url.com/foldername/iWeb_SiteName. (Note that httpdocs did not have to be typed.)
Hope this helps you

DW CS3 FTP - synchronize error

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
these files don't exist in the /umff directory, they are in
the / directory, so why is DWCS3 picking them up as existing in
that directory, then giving me an error message that they don't?

See if this helps:

CS3 FTP will not connect!

I am quite furious with Adobe. I paid the $450 to upgrade
from 8 to the Creative Suite 3 Web Standard package and installed
it last night. The main reason for the purchase was for Dreamweaver
CS3. I manage about 10 sites for clients and wanted to upgrade from
Studio 8 to CS3.
The installation went smoothly, no glitches... I fired up
Dreamweaver and began trying to connect to all of my sites.
Dreamweaver could only connect to three of my 10 sites. All other
sites gave me the standard login in inocorrect or wrong password
notice.
I then checked to make sure the firewall settings were
correct and the timeout set at something greater than 2 seconds. No
luck.. the program still will not connect to my sites.
I do a search on Google and discover that this appears to be
a well known issue with Dreamweaver CS3 but I can't find any real
answers as to how to fix the problem. One would think that Adobe
would address this on their own site but I can't seem to find a fix
there either.
I am using Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 3 installed. My
old version of Dreameweaver (8) still functions and can connect to
all sites.
I find this absolutly maddening that such a well known issue
has not been corrected by Adobe. They have posted nothing about a
fix or workaround. They continue to sell a product that obviously
has issues.. one of the most important issues.. being able to FTP
from the program.. one of the features I have loved about all
previous versions of Dreamweaver.. now seemingly rendered
useless... but I still pay a premium to upgrade to a program that
does not work.
Mad, you bet! Macromedia did not have these issues.. and just
try to get tech support to help you at Adobe.. I end up in
Bangalor, wait forever and then "Mike" puts me on hold afterwhich I
get disconnected and a dialtone.
Has anyone been able to solve the FTP probelm with DW CS3? Is
there documentation somewhere? Is there a webpage that clearly
outlines what to do to fix this issue? I'm out $450 here and mad as
hell!

I finally got CS3 working by removing all the sites currently
definded from the program then recreating them all over again...
That's not the way this should work and I still can't believe Adobe
has not addressed the problem in some manner. I searched and
searched for info on this issue and found nothing but posts
regarding firewall issues and 2 second timeouts.. none of which
would have solved my problem.
Adobe's switch to outsourced "help" is a further irritant.
Several times I have called support and ended up being disconnected
when the support guy could not "fix" the problem.
I bought a CS3 updgrade for Dreamweaver months ago but it
would not install because I had the Studio 8 product. I was
informed that I had to buy the CS3 Suite to upgrade Dreamweaver. So
I was out the money for the store bought boxed upgrade.. Adobe told
me to submit a LOD "Letter of Destruction" along with proof of
purchase and they would refund the money... that was over six
months ago and I have yet to see a dime. Every time I call about it
I end up talking to "Mike" in India and the connection gets
dropped.
Needless to say I am very dissappointed with Adobe these
days... on a number of levels.

FTP problems with CS5 - Help please

I volunteer helping charity and education organisations with their websites. One of my clients has just bought CS5 - I personally am still working on CS3 - so when I went to help them download their site first of all the set-up was quite different (why do companies fix things that aren't broken), but I got over that issue and managed to connect to the site, download and make a couple of changes. All was well!
Two days later I went back, because they were having problems and I couldn't connect to the server.... Well, when I was on the main Dreamweaver screen the computer said it was connecting and made all the right moves uploading files etc, but nothing on the website changed, so goodness knows where the files were going. When I went onto the screen showing local and remote files, on the server side there was just a message saying you can't upload unless you set up a control version and the little blue plug was just greyed out.
I don't want or need to set up a control version as it is just one person dealing with this site from one computer.
As this is the first time I have come across 'subversion' or SVN I am a little confused. I have sent an email to the hosting company to make sure it is not a problem with their server, but won't get a reply until Monday so I thought that over the week-end I would just ask all you out there....
Help!!

DW is more than capable of managing your FTP tasks on its own. Please tell us - when you connect to the remote site and then LOOK at the Remote side of the Files panel, what FOLDER names do you see? As an ancillary question, what do you have in the Root Directory field of the Remote site definition?

Dreamweaver CS3 FTP Error: Cannot make connection to host

I have Windows Vista with a new purchase of Adobe Dreamweaver
CS3 Web Premium. I am a regular Dreamweaver user since version 2.
But this FTP situation still baffles me.
1. I have set up all my FTP parameters as usual and have
tried to use "Passive FTP" and the "Secure FTP" settings, but to no
avail
2. I tried to FTP via explorer and do have access to my
hosting service. The problem lies related to Dreamweaver itself.
3. I tried to check to see if my Windows Firewall would
affect it, but it is included in the firewall exception list.
I checked the other forum listings related to this problem,
and one of them mentions about the 60 second issue. I also checked
my site preferences and it is set to 60.
I don't want to use Cute FTP. I've been using Dreamweaver for
all these years and found it annoying to get another program just
for this. I am hoping to resolve this issue here on the forums so
that other Dreamweaver CS3 users can use FTP to upload their
site.

Mac firewall issues w. cs3/ftp

I'm running DW CS3 in a new Mac.
I have the native Mac firewall going, plus "Little Snitch", firewall app.
Everytime I start DW (and only on the 1st FTP attempt), I get this system message (likely from the Mac firewall - not a Little Snitch type window) ...
In the Mac Firewall, the allow rult for DW is there; I tried nuking the rule and give it permission once more, but this annoying box still comes back.
any thoughts on this?
thanks,
Gary

I'm also running into the same issue. I have a public domain name, and have run Windows FTP servers for about 5 years without any problems. My ISP doesn't provide reverse DNS. So Because I own the Domain name mycompany.com that points to my public IP 24..*. , if you do DNS lookup from anywhere in the world for my domain name you will get my public IP but if you do a reverse lookup for my IP you will get random123.dyn.optonline.net. When ever a client tries to connect to the FTP it takes a very long time about 60 seconds to even get the authentication. If the Users are able to authenticate its so slow it's not even usable. What is strange is that AFP over the internet works perfect, I guess it doesn't rely on reverse DNS. I also tried to add the dyn.optonline.net zone to the internal DNS server but still didn't help.
ANYONE have any suggestions??
