CS3 will not connect

I've been conncecting ok for years and then without changing
anything Contribute suddenly would not connect. I've upgraded to
CS3 but still have the problem. I'm a Mac user and had the problem
before upgrading from Tiger to Leopard. Adobe Tech Support say it
is the OSX. Apple tech Support have confirmed al my settings are
correct and so it is CS3.
Opening CS3 I select the Website Connection option. I tenter
the URL and then Browse to my web site which it finds. I press the
Continue button and after a long wait I get an error message
"Cannot find the website...." and a suggestion that I check the
address.
Anyone any ideas what is going wrong?
thanks Alfie Conway

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.

  • 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!

  • Remote app on my iphone 5 will not connect to itunes

    The remote app stopped working on my iphone 5 and will not connect to itunes. Home sharing is on on itunes and adding new library on my remote iphone app results in veryfying passcode results in the following message on itunes 'the pascode you have entered is incorrect'.

  • My Deskjet 3050 J610 will not connect to my Virgin WiFi router for use with Apple Mac laptop.

    I live in the UK and have Broadband access via a Virgin connection and WiFi router. My Apple MacBook laptop connects to the WiFi with no difficulties. However I have an HP Deskjet 3050 J610 printer which will not connect to the router. When I try to connect, the blue light just keeps on flashing but a connection is not found. Consequently my MacBook cannot "see" the printer on the network. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    See if this helps.

  • My hp c4599 printer will not connect to my wireless network

    My hp c4599 printer will not connect to my wireless network or show up on my computer during the installation even though it is usb connected. But it managed to create its own network where i can print wirelessly by selecting it sort of like bluetooth… I have installed different softwares from the hp website and looked at so many different forums but i cant find the answer. I have reset the printer and wireless network and god knows whatelse. I can also print fine through the usb cable, it just will not connect to my wireless network. I am going crazy P.S. once upon a time it was connected to my wireless network but i cant remember what happened. 
    So can someone please help and please dont be too technical

  • HP C4740 will not connect wirelessly to HP desktop

    I have an old HP desktop (prob Pavillion) running Win XP Pro w/ SP 3.  I have 2 MB RAM.  I purchased an HP C4740 AIO printer about 6 months ago.  At first it hooked up fine and performed very well in wireless mode.  Then when replacing an ink cartridge one of the retainer tabs broke.  Long story short I had to replace the unit.  HP gladly did so and I got a brand new one. 
    When I got the new one I hooked it up and installed the software exactly per the instructions for use as a wireless printer.  Unfortunately, no matter what I do it will not connect to my wireless network.  The only way to use this printer is via USB cable.  Two things happen that I find interesting:  it does not recognize the printer (even thought it's connected by USB cable) and it doesn't recognize my wireless network (even though it does recognize another unknown network).  Even when I try to manually enter my network SSID and Passphrase it will not recognize it.  I have also tried unsecuring the network but still no success.
    The network is secured but I have the SSID and passphrase information.  For reference, I have a Dell laptop and Lexmark printer that connect without issue.  My iPhone 4 connects without issue.  This C4740 will not.  I have uninstalled the software and even gone into the registery to locate and remove any entries associated with this printer.  Still nothing works in wireless mode.
    Need help.  I am by no means a computer expert, especially with networking.  I know enough to be dangerous but still make it through the day!  I'm ready to toss this and pay the much higher price for the much more usable Lexmark!  Only problem is I'm just cheap enough that I'm willing to try to make this printer work.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Download the latest installer software for your printer on the link below and save it to the Desktop.
    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software11/COL28119/mp-71555-3/PS_AIO_06_C4700_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175...
    Next download and install Revo Uninstaller from the link below.
    http://www.revouninstaller.com/download-freeware-version.php
    Disconnect your printer from your PC.
    Run revo and use it to uninstall your printer software.  Right click on the icon of the program you wish to remove and select Uninstall.  During the process you may be asked to delete registry entries, just select all and then click delete.  Do the same for any left over files and folders.  Once the uninstall has completed, reboot the PC.
    Temporarily disable any security software ( Antivirus and Antispyware )
    Now try running the software installer from your Desktop by double clicking the installer.  Do not connect the printer to the PC until the software asks ( Whether wired or wirelessly ).  If everything install Ok, remember to enable your security software.
    Hope this helps.
    Best wishes,

  • Apple TV (1st gen) will not connect to iTunes

    I am at wit's end. Until a couple of days ago, my 1st gen Apple TV connected fine to iTunes. Now, it will not connect no matter what. I have tried the following:
    1) restart both ATV and my machine (Win 7 running iTunes 10.7)
    2) restored ATV factory settings and reinstalled software
    3) hard-wire via ethernet to my computer (which some articles seemed to indicate should work - nothing happened)
    4) hard-wired both my cpu and ATV to a router - nothing shows up
    5) removed and reinstalled all Apple programs, including iTunes, QT and ancillary
    6) vaired between hard-wired internet connection and wireless for ATV
    7) did everything on this page, including open ports manually http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1453
    Most frustrating of all, my wife sees the device instantly in her iTunes. AGHH!

    Same thing happened to me, starting right after I  updated the Apple TV firmware. I restarted both devices to no avail. I can, however, play my itunes library content from the apple TV's "computer" app. So there must be some kind of connection. What I've lost is the ability to stream music from iTunes using AppleTV as an "airplay" device.

  • My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

    My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet". If this is the root of the problem,how can I change ip address?
    Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

    First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
    Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
    After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
    If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.

  • Brand New C309g will not connect wirelessly with ANY wireless security options enabled

    Printer will connect via wired ethernet. I can use the http utility.
    Printer will connect via unsecured wireless connection.
    Printer defaults to autoconfig (169.xxx)when connected  via WEP (both open and shared), will not connect with a manual IP address. Cannot access http utility.
    Printer won't even autoconfig when connected via WPA-Personal - instead says "No connection found."
    Printer is in the same uncluttered room as the router.
    ALL OTHER wireless network devices work fine and keep up with security changes.
    I have legacy devices on the network that make me want to run with WEP.
    I've run the HP Network Diagnostic. It can access my router just fine. It cannot find the printer.
    Router is D-Link DIR-655.
    I jump through the right hoops - refresh router, restore factory defaults on printer, etc. All other wireless network devices work fine.
    I want to pull an "Office Space" on this brand-new printer - please save me from doing so!

    Ooops, my mistake.  Thanks for pointing it out.
    Another idea is to make sure the firmware is updated on the router.
    Also, from the control panel of the printer: Setup > Network > Wireless Network Test.  It will self-test the printer radio.

  • New WIFI card will NOT connect correctly.

    Hi,
    I just purchased a Gigafast WF748-CUI wireless card for my iMac G3 running Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.10) and I followed the instructions exactly and did everything right but it will NOT connect. It keeps generating these weird IP addresses beginning with 168. but my networks IP address begins with 192. I had the same problem with my previous WIFI card on the iMac but it would work eventually. I have been messing with this one for like 2 hours and it has shown no sign of working. I even entered a manual IP address in but still nothing. The program for the wireless card says its connected but it is not (or isnt connected to the right IP anyway). What do I do?

    Sooo, there's no way the CP has to "Join" a Network? Just says you're connected to 169.x.x.x?
    Might try making a New Location in Network CP, turn off all other Ports, the set the IPv4 settings to Manually...
    IP: 192.168.0.5
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    Router: 192.168.0.1
    Assuming the Router is 192.168.0.1, but change the 2nd & 3rd digits accorcdingly.

  • New iMac 27" WILL NOT connect the built  in webcam to any websites. HELP!

    Hey,
    I have the iMac 27'' 2.93 GHz Intel Core i7 16GB.
    The built in webcam, (and also any USB webcams I have tried to connect,) will not connect to any websites such as Chat Roulette, or any other broadcast website that requires Adobe Flash Player. I hit accept, and it just comes up as either a black screen, or says detecting video. (Depending on the site.) I have tried on multiple browsers, is there a random setting I don't know about?
    The webcam works perfectly with Skype, Photobooth, iChat- but it will not work when trying to broadcast through any website.
    Can someone please help me solve this problem!? It's ridiculous.
    Thank you! I will paypal anyone who comes up with a working solution for me $10.00!

  • New Airport Express will not connect to internet

    I am attempting to upgrade from an old Airport Base Station (the gum drop/flying saucer/mushroom model) to the new and improved mini tower model. I plugged the ethernet cable from the comcast cable modem in and nothing worked - no wireless, no internet, no nothing but flashing amber light. I was able to configure a new wireless network, and it shows up on MBPro running Maverick and iPad using Airport Utility as a functioning wireless network (with the green light on the AE), but it will not connect to the internet. Any suggestions?

    The only step that appears to be missing is to reset your cable or DSL modem. Unplug it and let it rest a moment or two, then power it back up again: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2460
    You've done everything right, but still can't connect to the Internet. Why?
    It is likely that the modem locked onto your iMac, and it will ignore anything else you plug into it until the modem has been reset. If you were to plug the iMac back into the modem, it would still connect to the Internet.
    Fortunately, resetting a broadband modem is usually very easy -- just unplug its power supply, wait a moment, and plug it back in. After its indicator lights have gone through their startup routine, you should do the same to the AirPort base station.
    Odds are that you can connect to the Internet now.

  • New Apple TV will not connect to WiFI.

    I have a brand new Apple TV. When I first set it up it connected to my Airport Extrement WiFi with no problem. A few hours later it will not connect to any WiFi. It does not see any WiFi available. I have rest it. Reset my WiFi. Nothing works.

    ZHall55,
    Regarding the update issue: I have seen other users saying they cannot update with the ethernet cable but has worked when they have removed the cable and updated using WiFI, then reconnected the ethernet and it worked fine.  Try it and see.
