CS3 Opens Files As Frames, Loses Scroll Bar

Hi
I have a Windows 7 system on a new computer bought in December. Since I re-installed my copy of Dreamweaver 3 on this new PC, I've been getting two strange errors.
The first problem is that when I first start up Dreamweaver and open a file it opens it in a small window like this:
I normally have my layout set to Split view. DW doesn't mind giving me the split view but for some reason it minimises the window like that. It also gives me a tiny arrow under it that converts the page into a frame if I click on it.
Occasionally DW will go further and open the file as a frame, calling it UntitledFrameset2 or 4 or some random number. And I've also caught it inserting a frame into the html at the bottom of the page, and then this code disappears if I click around a bit.
If the page has opened as itself e.g. index.html but it's in the small box, as above, I can get it into a normal situation by just clicking on the "Design" or "Code" buttons. That acts like a slap in the face and DW snaps out of it.
I have messed around with various view settings, cascades etc to no avail. I have uninstalled and re-installed twice, also deleting the configuration file but it seems determined to keep doing this. Upon re-installing it, Dreamweaver remembers my Site files which suggests that there's a cache somewhere I haven't removed. Suggestions?
It's like there's a setting somewhere telling DW to open files in Frames but I can't find it.
My second issue is that the scroll bar on my design window loves to disappear for no reason. It might be there when I open the file but if I open another file and click back to the original one, the scroll bar disappears. I have to click the arrow on the right hand side, fill the whole window, click the arrow again and I'll get the scroll bar back, but only temporarily.
I had DW happily installed on Windows 7 on my last computer and didn't experience either of these issues. I've done a lot of searching of the forums and on Google but haven't been able to find a solution. Would love some help as this is really annoying.
Thanks
Karen

but I doubt this issue is related to a corrupt config file.

Frames and scroll bar

Hi, im making a page with frames, but when a frame content is
too big,a scroll bar appears but JUST in that frame, is ther a way
to make frames work like tables? i mean if a column is too big,
then the scroll bar appears but in the whole page, not just in that
column.
Is this is not possible, then is there another way to open a
new page but just in a certain place of the web without using
frames?.
Thanks you very much

This is but one of the many reasons why frames are not a good
choice for
your layout method.

Not if you are stuck on using frames, no.

Other than using IFrames (which are just frames by another
name) or AJAX
(which is likely not the right solution either), no.

Photoshop CS3 opening files painfully slow on a Mac

We're having an issue here at work where Photoshop CS3 is very slow in opening files of any size on our Macs.
We're running 10.5.8 on 2x2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon MacPros with 3 of them having 8 gigs of ram and my machine running 12 gigs.
I've tried doing a bunch of research on the issue, but all I can find about it has to do with the issue on a Windows machine involving the network/default printers. I've tried deleting both our network printers and adding them again after a restart with no luck. We've even tried deleting the Photoshop preference file along with the Adobe Mediabrowser preference.
If anybody has any thoughts on how to fix this (aside from upgrading to a newer CS), they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, I think I found a little work around that so far, for the past hour or so is working good. Files are opening up a lot faster.
What I did was create a virtual default printer following instructions I found Adobe's site...
1. Open System Preferences, and select Print & Fax.
2. Choose the + sign to add a new printer.
3. Choose IP.
4. In the Protocol pop-up menu, choose Line Printer Daemon - LPD.
5. In the Address field, type in localhost.
6. After Generic PostScript printer displays in the Print Using field, click Add.
7. Close out of the Print & Fax preference or Quit System Preferences.
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/set-default-printer-print-center.html
Once I did all that, I had to go into the Preferences and delete the Photoshop and Mediabrowser preferenses and then restart the computer. Hopefully this fix sticks, but if not, I'm sure I'll back to see if anybody has any other ideas.
Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciate it.
EDIT
Well, it's been a few days and it looks like I may have spoke too soon on the above fix. Photoshop seems to be slowly reverting back to the problem.

Frames missing scroll bar in browser

I have created a webpage index.html that will be my main page
on the web with three frames on it. The top frame will hold the
name etc… and the bottom one will hold about 100 small size
jpeg pictures that will be linked to display the larger size in the
middle frame. So only the middle frame will have its content change
based on the clicks on the small jpeg in the bottom frame.
The problem is when I browse my index.html in the browser (
IE or firefox) it only shows 7 or 8 small jpegs on the bottom and I
can’t see the rest of my small jpeg in the browser since
I’m missing the scroll bar to get to the rest of the small
jpegs. In dreamweaver it works fine but not in the broser.
Appreciate all the help I can get… thanks

We would have to see the pages. Can you post a link?

Photoshop CS3 - Opening File - Toolbar Freezes

Hi,
I have Photoshop CS3 on a Mac OS X. When I open Photoshop, click File > Open, then click on the image I want to open, Photoshop opens the image but everything is greyed out. I can click on the side tool bars and they are no longer greyed out but the top bar freezes. The "file" tab stays highlighted. I can close the image, but I can not close the program. The entire bar across the top is frozen. I can edit the photo but since the tool bar is frozen I can not save the file.If I navigate to a different program, such as Firefox, the frozen Photoshop tool bar stays at the top of the screen. I can not restart or shut down my computer becase the tool bar is covered up by the Photoshop tool bar.
Also I have the installion CD. When I try to reinstall it ask me to "Relocate". It will not let me click on the installion CD. I can not get pasted this step or I would just reinstall CS3.
Is there anything I can do about this problem?
Thanks for you help!

Unnecessary horizontal scroll bar in API

PROBLEM .................
Someone recently asked:
When viewing the Java SE v1.4.1 docs
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/index.html
in frames in Internet Explorer v6.0, the right frame always has a horizontal scroll
bar regardless of how I size the window. This results in the right or
left edge of the docs to be clipped in the browser. I had the same
problem with the v1.4.0 docs leading me to believe it is an issue in the
HTML generation in the javadoc tool. I'm no fan of Microsoft, but your
HTML docs should be viewable in the most popular browser on Windows
IMHO.
SOLUTION.................
This is due to a bug in IE, for which there is a workaround that
you can easily implement by making a small change to a single file.
The horizontal scroll bar will go away if you change api/index.html
from this:
<FRAME src="overview-summary.html" name="classFrame"
title="Package, class and interface descriptions">
to this:
<FRAME src="overview-summary.html" name="classFrame" scrolling="yes"
title="Package, class and interface descriptions">
However, this fix did not make it into 1.4.2.
This is the bug report:

Ohh... thanks. I was wondering about that.

I wasn't able to see/use right scroll bar itunes 11 ---- I can now!

In iTunes 11 I pressed:
Alt + Space
A small window opens in top left corner.
Select "Minimize"
Then go to the windows task bar and click on "iTunes" to pop open iTunes 11.
The scroll bar on the right is now visible. It is a temporary fix.
Restarting itunes 11 will cause the right scroll bar to go bye-bye.
What a sad mess this thing iTunes 11 is.

Thank you for replying. This actually my 13 year-old son's itouch. He did this without really understanding what he was doing. He heard some kids at school talking about it. There was no malcious intent. I'm trying to help him get his device back to the way it was. He'll never do such a thing again.
I googled DFU mode and tried to follow the steps that were recommended on various sites. Nothing worked. I am still getting the error message 3014 during the restore process.
Any further advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

FireFox current tab loses scrolling when a .PDF file is opened in a new tab through a hyperlink

Hey, This is Praveen!
I have a problem in FF 4.0 and even in the previous versions wherein when I open an .PDF file (in a new tab) from a link, the current tab loses scrolling until I switch over to the newly opened tab. Kindly address this issue.
Thank you!

Hi NSHS,
Have you checked to see if your PDF add-on is up to date? You should take a look at the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] Knowledge Base article. There is a lot of good information in there. You should try both of the suggested PDF add-ons to see if that fixes the issue.
Hopefully this helps!

Custom Horizontal Scroll Bar position on File Open

Fellow Forum Members,
I have a lot of PDF files that I want to open in a special way. I want them to open at 150% ZOOM and this was easy enough to setup in the PREFERENCES window.
However, what is proving to be a big problem is changing how the horizontal scroll bar has a default position all the way to the left. My objective is to have the horizontal scroll bar positioned all the way to the right and at a 150% everytime I open a PDF file.
The Preferences window doesn't seem to have a horizontal scroll bar position on open setting. Can anyone help me out and tell me how such a custom setting is possible with Acrobat 9 Extended? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Does anyone have any ideas?

PDF files stop loading and won't open until I click scroll bar?

I’ve tried this on 5 different computers running XP and Windows 7 and it does the same thing every time. I click on Page 3-7 or 15-17 and it starts to load and then stops. As you can see on the first screen below it stopped loading at 37kb of a 615kb file. On the second picture below, I clicked the mouse on the vertical scroll bar and the page appeared.
Any ideas to the mystery?

When you uninstall firefox, do you go to the control panel and in C:/ProgramFiles/(delete mozilla firefox)? Or only one of the two options?Try.

CS3 Scroll Bar Behavior

Hello,
This behavior was experienced on Photoshop and Flash in CS3. When I zoom in on anything, the scroll bar forces the screen to the bottom (PSD) or to the far left (FLA). Next the program crashes.
Restarting sometimes corrects it, but lately that is not working.
I'm running WinXP on a new Lenovo T61p with 3 GB of RAM. I usually have Outlook2007 open along with Firefox 3.0.4.
What can I do to correct it?
--GM

Thanks,
This method seems to work for Photoshop and Bridge only.
Do you know this will work for Flash? I've found no documentation in Adobe for refreshing preferences for Flash and Dreamweaver. When pressing Shift+Ctrl+Alt while launching Flash, I get a message about Blaze.
What is the file name I should search for to delete? I don't believe speed could be the issue, I'm very quick to press after hitting the prog start.

Scroll bar missing on opening any website in firefox nightly 38.0a1

Vertical Scroll bar missing on opening any website in firefox nightly 38.0a1

On Mac the scroll bars can be hidden and only have them show when you scroll the page so you can see the current scroll position.
The idea is that a touch pad is used that doesn't require the scroll bars to be visible and thus have more screen estate for the browsing area.
You can make the scroll bars always visible:
System Preferences > General > Show Scroll Bar > Choose "Always"
You can try to delete the xulstore.json file in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

Photoshop CS3 extremely slow opening files

Recently my Photoshop CS3 Extended has been taking an extremely long time to open files of all sizes as well as to create a new document. It takes several minutes to open files. While Photoshop is attempting to open, the program is unresponsive.
Photoshop version 10.0.1
OS: Vista 64bit
PC: HP tablet
Ram: 4G
Processor: AMD Turion X2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile ZM-86 2.4GHz

That's good advice from John there Liz and if you really lose patience, uninstall the whole thing and re-install it. You should get your original speed back then - I'm assuming that all your other programs are running normally.

Flash CS3 IDE Scroll bar behavior

Hello,
This behavior was experienced on CS3 Flash, Photoshop,
Dreamweaver, at the same time. When I zoom in on anything, the
scroll bar forces the screen to the bottom (PSD) or to the far
right (FLA). If you attempt to pull the elevator box to the left,
it returns to the right, like a stubborn child. Next the program
crashes.
I've learned that the typical solution for Photoshop is to
reset the preferences, where you hold down the Shift+Ctrl+Alt. But
this does not have the same result with Flash nor Dreamweaver.
Is this a config problem? What can I do to correct it?
