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?

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.

  • I use Illustrator CC, but after watching Libraries CC, I went to my Window panel on my Mac and "Libraries" isn't a choice - Am I missing an Update or ?

    After watching the great presentation on Adobe Illustrator about the usefulness of Libraries across several Illustrator platforms, I went to the Window Oull-Down Menu - No "Libraries" in the List. There were individual Libraries (Colors, Swatches, etc) at the bottom, but no Libraries CC for the uses demonstrated in the Video.
    Do I need an Upgrade that I've missed? I pay my monthy user fee every month but don't know if I've missed an important new Version of Illustrator CC - and if I have, please tell me where I can accomplish the Upgrade.
    Thanks..!

    You need to check the Adobe Application manager app for the new version.

  • 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?

  • Best way to port all Windows XP files, applicaitons and data form my PC over to iMac and how to run those Windows apps on Mac?ns on Mac?

    I have a Windows XP machine with apps, files and data.  I want to get all that over to my Mac, and also run those apps under Windows XP or even Windows 7 on my Mac.  Im wondering:
    1.  How best to get those files over to my Mac
    2.  How to run those apps and use my Windows based files/data on my Mac
    3.  How best to run Windows on my Mac....either partitiion my Mac's hard drive and boot up either Windows or MAC OS, or run some other program where I can easily switch back and forth form Windows to MAC OS, or perhaps get it all on an external hard drive, maybe partition that Windows/MAC OS and boot from that?
    Thanks!

    I agree you would benefit by using virtualizaiton software. Virtual Box is one alternative the commercial apps for doing virtualization are Parallels and VMWare Fusion which you also might be interested in for their support and updates.
    Also you may benefit by book marking and using:
    Mac 101 , Switch 101 & Find Out How Video tutorials
    For your MS Office apps then I'd STRONGLY recommend using the native Office For Mac versions, you can find these on Amazon for less than $100 and then you can run the apps natively rather than having to lean on MS Windows. Also for your Financial and Tax software you also may want to use OS X apps too, for example I used Quicken for over 20 years (PC mostly and some Mac) but switched to iBank. Also for tax software I have used Quicken's Turbo Tax, this also runs natively on OS X.
    In other words for your stated needs I don't see much reason to stay with MS Windows. You may have other considerations, if you do please state them, some may be real issues and some may be easily overcome.

    You do not tell us what OS version you have. In OS 10.8.2, do this:
    Apple Menu / System Preferences / Language and Text / Input Sources.
    Select the language you want. Mine is set to Canadian English.

  • Show All Windows through Dock

    I'm sure there is an easy answer to this...
    When I was using SL, I could click and hold on an app in the dock to bring up expose all the windows for that app alone. I can't seem to do that in Lion. I have to click and then select Show All Windows.
    Is there a way for me to open it they way I used to in SL? I do have Mission Control enabled in Lion if that's what causing my issue.

    The issue was related to Spaces.
    Machine was migrated from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5 and it looks like the Finder prefs and/or the Spaces prefs were corrupted.
    I deleted both preference files and all seems to be ok now.

    Yes, I've that and it didn't work. Today, I reinstalled printer software on one printer and the "paused" message changed to "offline". It's a three-in-one printer. I turned off and on again and it still says "offline"

    Sync isn't a "cloud service" to back up miscellaneous user selected files. Only specific Firefox user data and preferences are synchronized.
    See this for what types of Firefox data Sync is intended to handle.

  • Can I dock my windows Laptop with IMAC?

    Hi,
    This would have been a no possibly even 3 years ago, but with the development of common software protocols allowing a flourishing application market, is it now possible for me to dock my Windows PC with a new IMAC. To the extent that the MAC is actually driving things using its OS.
    4 Reasons:-
    The first reason for wanting to use the Apple OS, is the fault of my overzealous company security settings which when in full flow like they are now on "Virus Scan Thursday" runs up about 90% of the RAM to the point is can take 5 minutes to open a basic forecasting sheet.
    The second one is:- after using IPAD day to day for the past three years I can honestly say its one of the most intuitive devices to use, especially Numbers and Keynote. No more googling for formulas. To make my point about its simplicity, I draw your attention to Excels Autosum function which i'm sure you can remember is the Sigma symbol, so poor a symbol is it, that MS have to translate and scribe the words AutoSum in every common language known to man next to it, you opted for the = sign.
    The third reason is:- Windows just seems so thrown together now that it might, and quite often does stop working and self destructs. A little bit like the Vauxhall Victor X type did in the 60's. Let me explain what I mean. Take the three next gen consoles on the market, Sony PS4, MS XBOX ONE, and the Nintendo WII U. My boys and are fortunate enough (my bonus payment not so lucky) to have the latter 2-following subsequent visits from a white bearded fellow. I like the shooty brash environments that are driven up in games like COD, which to be fair is the only real game on XBOX ever that I've played since getting over the shock that I could connect with other people over the planet and play them. Anyway before I run off track onto a rose-tinted day when me an my brother would divide the screen up into two sections using cardboard. When playing Goldeneye on the N64; one of us laying prone, one of us sat in an inflatable plastic sofa, both pair of eyes glued to the action on their OWN PORTION of the screen. The cardboard acting like the plastic piece separating two battleship players, neither one knowing the others position. But for the Xbox that's about it, the other games developers don't seem to get the game-play over graphics argument. In the case of some its either far-far too complex for concern, I'm thinking about those driving games with the flash cars and exquisite level of detail in the telemetry and how that car handles. Realistically how many of us have the time to play a full 24 hour Le - Mans - Grand Prix with all of the automatic, car control gadgets switched off. To the complete opposite where the game-play is sooooooo simple, take the reboot of tomb raider which took around 12 hours to clock with all of the collectables. Then you have thousands of apps to contend with. Zune, Music player, etc all bolted onto a bastardised win 8 setup. Then look at Nintendo, and its OS its refined and things seem to work, the published games are always excellent and playable by any age. The new Yoshi wool world looks amazing but it has the complexity of the stardome on Mario world.
    The fourth and final reason is, it would probably save me 5 - 10 minutes a day swapping files over email etc etc... But, Its 5 minutes more I can spend with my boys practising their footballing skills and acting out their other ambitions, so that one day they don't have to worry about the appalling 1st world plight of interoperability problems between Windows and Apple! which like Oasis and Blur from Britpop England in the 90's and Love it or Hate it Marmite, realised that being ever so slightly different and arguing a bit about the relative merits of the new stuff, cautiously publicly insulting each other whilst really being squash buddies would ensure massive success for both of them!

  • Folders created in Windows not deleting on Mac

    Hello,
    I recently moved all my windows data to the Mac. After reorganising, when I tried to delete few folder, they are not getting deleted.
    I tried dragging them to the TRASH, they are just lying down there and getting deleted  even when I try the SECURE DELETE option in Mac.
    How do I delete these folders/data.
    Ajay.

    Try a re-boot.
    If that does not work, try:
    Force the Trash to empty using the Option key:
    This technique uses a hidden feature of Mac OS X to force the Trash to empty.
    Perform the following steps in the order specified:
    Press and hold the mouse button on the Trash icon in the Dock. The context menu for Trash will display.
    Press and hold the Option key or the Shift-Option keyboard combination,
    Select Empty Trash from the context menu for Trash.
    Release the keys pressed and held in step 2.

  • Can I Set View Prefs for ALL Windows?

    Is there a way in Tiger to set preferences so that ALL Finder windows ALWAYS open to a chosen view? If I want to see all windows in List View, for example, whenever a window is opened or created so that I don't have to reset windows individually, can this be done?
    G5 Dual 2.7   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  
    G5 Dual 2.7   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    That actually doesn't completely work. I have the same settings for my 10.4 Finder. I also have the highest level directory (ie: the boot drive) set to icon view with Brushed Metal and Sidebar turned off. However, all new folders created on the desktop always begin in Brushed Metal w/ Sidebar view. Also, folders that have been set with Brushed Metal/Sidebar turned off, open with it turned on when first navigated to via the Dock.
    In other words, open place your boot drive in the Dock. Set it to icon view with Brushed Metal and set Finder to open folders in new windows. Create a folder at the highest level of the drive. Open it to confirm it has taken the parent folder settings (in this case icon view, with Brushed Metal/Sidebar off). Close the window. Now open it via pop up menu from the drive icon in the Dock. Not only does it open in Brushed Metal Siderbar on view, but also at a different size, and sometime different Desktop location. Only when you manually turn off Brushed Metal at that point will the two versions of the open folder match when navigated to both ways.
    This behavior drives me nuts, as I tend to stay in non-Brushed Metal view, in either list or icon. I have several drives, and bop between Dock pop-up navigation, and regular old double click drilling. I'm constantly having to manually set windows to non-Brushed metal view, even after they were created with it turned off. I wish this inconsistency, and the fact that all new folders created at the Desktop begin with Brushed Metal on, were controllable system wide. However, it's been this way in OSX since as early as I can remember. So I doubt it'll ever be addressed.

    On mac is working
    have someon an Idea?

    When i woke up this morning i found my icons and my start menu not appearing so i looked online on
    my phone for what caused this and i found out it was the microsoft security essentials...sooo..seeing as how you cant delete essentials when in normal mode because it is being used as a process...I myself started up my computer in safeMode which only ran the
    bare essentials for windows xp..i then went to add/remove programs and deleted Microsoft security essentials... If you would rather keep the essentials on there is a way to disable it in safe mode....I went to my control panel/Administrative tools/Services.
    once your there find Microsoft security essentials antivrus (it will be something of that nature, i dont remember full name) right click it and go to properties and there should be a dropdown box...Choose disable...restart your computer in normal mode and
    everything should be working just like before.......
    I think microsoft is forcing people to upgrade by screwing with everyones systems who run XP. They
    knew this would happen

  • I have Premiere elements 12 and I have mistakenly docked the Transition panel. How do I undock it?

    I have Premiere Elements 12 on an iMac and I have mistakenly docked the Transition panel and I can not open it. Please advise. Thanks you.

    Glenn Bailey
    Thanks for the reply. Very glad that the Restore Workspace resolved the issue.
    As for version 13, there have been several removals and some additions to this version.
    DV and HDV Captures are gone, webDVD is gone. The version does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or
    Mac OSX 10.7. The Elements Organizer 13 that comes
    with it is new - even has a slideshow for the Mac people as well as the Windows people. This slideshow is different
    than that offered in the past - 720p or 1080p slideshows (AVCHD.mp4) with a choice of 5 different themes.
    If you are thinking about 13, definitely go the free 30 days tryout from Adobe route prior to any purchase
    to assure the compatibility of the program with your computer environment as well as your project goals.
    I have written very detailed blogs on
    Premiere Elements 13 First Look
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: Premiere Elements 13 First Look Details
    and
    Premiere Elements 13 Daily Discoveries
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: Premiere Elements 13 Daily Discoveries
    and they should give you a good idea of what to expect. The blogs come with no ads, no registration, free - just my place
    to keep my observations on Premiere Elements.
    If you do try version 13, I would leave your version 12 installed but closed. Use one program at a time. And, then decide
    on the program that best serves your video editing needs.
