CS5/mac: all windows floating -- WON'T DOCK

this is terribly annoying...
on Dreamweaver CS5 on the mac, windows (main document window, files panel, search, panel) are all FLOATING, I can't dock them...
how can I fix this, please....
thank you....

@maya90: Before resetting workspace (which, when you do, you'll lose all changes/ customizations you've done to your workspace, please ensure that Window > Application Frame is enabled. This is what allows 'docking'. See the bottom of this screenshot:

Mini Mac running Windows 7 won't use more than 2GB of RAM.

I used Bootcamp (newest version) to install Windows 7 Ultimate on my partitioned hard drive on my Mac Mini. The computer ahs 8GB of RAM, but when I open the Task Manager in Windows, I can only see that 2BG of RAM is being used. How can I get it so that I can use all 8GB of RAM on Windows 7? Is there any possibility that I could do it without having to reinstall Windows?
All I would like to know is how I can get Windows 7 to use all 8GB of RAM. I did install the x86 version.
Thannk you.
Quick edit: I can see that the task manager sees that 8GB are installed, but it also says that there is 2GB total. The OS is only being run with the 2GB and not the 8 that are being detected.

Install the 64 bit version of Windows.

Consolidate All Windows option not functional in Illustrator CC 2014

I just downloaded the Illustrator CC 2014 update, and I cannot for the life of me consolidate all my open documents to one window. In other words I want to dock all open documents to the top in tabs. In the regular CC version, if you have multiple documents in tabs in a floating window, you can go to Window > Arrange > Consolidate All windows, and it will dock all of those docs at the top in tabs. However in CC 2014 that option is greyed out and I can't select it. Anyone else experiencing this bug? Am I doing something wrong? (The first image is CC 2014, and the second is from regular CC, what I want it to look like.)

SUCCESS!! I figured out that you need the Application Frame option checked in order to achieve the layout I like. Silly me.

What is the mouse gesture to minimize all windows?

I am having trouble understanding the mouse gesture that minimizes all windows back into the dock. I keep on doing something which causes this to happen and I cannot figure out or find anywhere what this gesture is.

Do you mean ctrl-clicking the Composite Channel icon in the Channels Panel?

How to contain all windows in Application Frame cs5 MAC

Hello,
This is my last resort to hopefully find a solotion to my problem.
Ive recently switched from PC to MAC, and since the switch I have had some trouble with photoshop (apparently its not the same?)
Now please bear with mem I have trouble explaining this properly hehe
Okay...
When I have two photos open in cs5 in tabs, If i drag one out of the tab and then click on the photo still tabbed the one that isnt tabbed disappears! Its floating in behind photoshop over my desktop. If I minimize photoshop, I can see the file floating there?
Is there any way to keep all files (windows) contained within the application frame itself, so they no longer "float" behind the photoshop application frame??
I hope this makes enough sense!
I never had trouble with windows floating outside of photoshop when I was using PC...

Hi,
Do you have the application frame in photoshop cs5 turned on or off?
Window>Appliction Frame
A check mark beside the word application frame means it's on.

Docking all windows/panels in DWCS3 MAC OS X?

Howdy,
I'm sure the answer to this is no, but I just want 100%
clarification :)
I have a copy of Dreamweaver CS3 I bought for the Mac OS X,
but I also have it on Windows (I'm switching from Windows to Mac),
and I was wondering if there is a way to dock all windows/panels
together in the OS X version like the Windows version?
Let me explain for those who haven;t a clue what I am on
about! In the Windows version (and like all windows apps) DW is
basically all stored in one window, and all the panels are arranged
inside this one window how you want! But the outer window is like
the container, and minimising it, minimises all of the DW panels.
Now in the MAC OS X version, the toolbars/panels etc are all
seperate to the main document window. So when I open a plain new
doc for exmaple, that can be minimised on its own, but all the DW
toolbars stay on my desktop? Whats the point n that? I can't use
the damn toolbars on my desktop!
Can I contain all these windows/panels in one container like
the windows version? So minimising the doc windows minimises the
lot? I'm SURE you could do this on DW 8 on OS X... but I could be
wrong?
OS X Version doesnt even have the "Coder" and "Designer"
workspace layouts, I have to maunally arrange it to mimic the coder
workspace from windows... quite annoying?
I suppose for a avid MACer this is the way mac works with
windows, and I am just so use to MS Windows that it will take some
getting use to, and in a few months I will probably say the Windows
way is crap, but at the moment I don't and want to know if I can
change it?
Anyone have any ideas?

Steve M

I got rid of my last Mac a few years back, but I thought that
once DW
lost focus, the panels were not in view. If not, press F4.

My guess is that you are wrong, but I might be wrong, too.

You can save layouts, though.

Just wait until you have permission problems. I hope it's
less of a
nightmare for you than it was for me. There are some things I
love
about Mac, but overall, I'll take something I can fix myself.

Install CS5 on both Mac and Windows

Hi all,
I have an Adobe CS5 Design premium which I have been using for 2 years now. Recently, I switched to a Macbook Pro with Bootcamp, which allows me to dual-boot to Windows. Does my CS5 license allow me to dual-install on BOTH Mac and Windows OSes on the same laptop (technically, I am not installing on separate machines). If yes, how do I do so? It seems like my installation DVD is for Windows only.
Appreciate any clarifications. Thanks.

Your serial number is only good for Windows, as well as the version of the software that goes with it.

Flash Player Update disables "restore all windows from last session" in Safari on Mac

I am on Mac OS 10.9.5, using safari 7.1.2. Adobe Flash Player Update loses all safari windows when after update the installer automatically opens safari and just opens flash player website; the "restore all windows from last session" is grayed out in history. The "reopen last closed window" is also grayed out. It has been happening ever since and happened again when I just installed Flash Player ver 16.0.0.257.
For all other normal working situation I can close safari and reopen and see that I can "restore all windows from last session" and there is no problem. But on flash Player install (set on manual install), the problem is annoying and costs me a lot of time to restore one by one from history. I do not think this is a Mac or a Safari issue, but will update to Mac Yosemite help if Adobe Flash Player is updated differently in that setup?
Please help.

Update: I called adobe flash player technical support phone number 1 877-587-1877. They want $59 (warranty only 6 months) to fix this problem as they use a third party to solve this issue; they themselves provide no support. Or buy the paid version. They insist it is my network issue which I absolutely can not believe.
It is adobe Flash player update that forces reopening of safari and wracks the safari losing all windows from last session. That is not my network. Adobe does not have a proper safari compatible flash player update.
Besides, this is a known problem at Adobe and they are not fixing it and want money to fix it one person at a time! They also shared that 25% to 30% of the installations have this problem... wow!! and they still will not fix it in a general update! I wonder if safari has a plug in update that can fix this?

I recently did a system update and installed Yosemite on my Mac. Now I am unable to open CS5 at all. The error message I get is this: "To open Adobe Photoshop CS5.1, you need to install legacy Java SE 6 runtime." I have tried downloading this and it still gives me the same mess

In the details it is mentioned that it is an outdated version of Java.
Is this a security risk that i need to live with to get CS5 to run with Yosemite?
Also i need to reject messages from Java in the future about updates, or not?
thx for any input

I set my preferences to '''show all tabs and windows from last session''' and un-checked the box for '''don't load tabs until selected''' but every time I turn off fire fox and power down my Mac all my app tabs disappear.

Firefox 5.0 won't open a new window if all windows are closed or minimized

Running Firefox 5.0 under Mac OS X 10.6.8. If I close all of the windows, or all windows are minimized, I can't open a new window. A new window is listed in the Windows menu with the name "Mozilla Firefox", but the window does not actually exist. The ghost window can't be selected from that menu and therefore also can't be closed

Well, the behavior I described is now intermittent. Sometimes I can open a new window and sometimes I can't. If I can't, command-Tab does nothing. So far I've found no consistent circumstances under which I can or can't open a new window.
Originally I was running computationally intensive program that required 3.35 days to complete its run. When the run was over the Firefox problem disappeared - for awhile. Then the problem recurred in the intermittent fashion I've described.

ASk in the DW firum and be much more specific. Web page rendering issues are specific to specific versions of browsers and you may simply be using some bad code that messes up your page.

CS5 Dreamweaver on Windows Vista. Will not open at all. Please advise

CS5 Dreamweaver on Windows Vista. Will not open at all. Been fine until now. No recent updates on computer, other Creative Suite software all work fine too.
I have the Student package installation so I am unable to uninstall then re-install as one off set up. Or is it possible to get the re-installation on a student package, and if so will I have to re-install everything?
have been using Dreamweaver only two months ago and now it is will not open. I do not get anything on the screen, no egg-timer or anything. Tried to look up online to solve problem, but no joy.
Please advise....

When DW starts acting weird, the first thing to try is Deleting Corrupted Cache in DW

If that doesn't help, try Restore Preferences. Note: your work space, custom settings & 3rd party extensions will be wiped out by this. So make backups of anything you need to keep.

If all else fails, use the CS Cleaner Tools below followed by a software re-install.
