Dreamweaver 4 & Windows Vista

I just bought a new computer with Windows Vista and was
wondering if my Dreamweaver 4 will run on Vista?

DW4 - DMX (6.x) - DMX2004 (7.x) - DW8 - DWCS3
There's the lineage.
DW4 is 1999/2000 vintage.
Most people have no idea what to call their version of DW.

Dreamweaver and Windows Vista Problem

Hello,
I ran into a problem with my Dreamweaver - 8 application and
cannot find a fix. I open up the Dreamweaver application, 2-3
seconds later, I get the following error message, “A problem
caused the program to stop working correctly, windows will close
the program and notify you if a solution is available.” I am
using Windows Vista and believe the problem is associated with the
Vista operating system. I am puzzled by the fact that I have been
using Dreamweaver with Vista and have had no problems up until now.
I uninstalled & reinstalled Dreamweaver to no avail. I
restored my computer to an earlier date, and updated Dreamweaver,
and still have the same problem.
Any help to resolve this problem would be greatly
appreciated.

Hello Again,
I finally fixed the problem. I went into my network settings
and reset my network address. This did the trick, I went back and
opened up Dreamweaver without any problem.

Is Dreamweaver compatible with Windows Vista?

No matter what I do I can't insert text into Dreamweaver. I'm
beginning to think Dreamweaver is not compatible with Windows
Vista. I can type text into it but I can't write a document in
another program then insert it into a DW page. It just won't do
anything at all. I've watched about 4 videos on this and read many
things on Dreamweaver help and can't find it. I think it might be
easier to learn html than Dreamweaver. I can't find any good
Dreamweaver tutorials, even in Lynda.com. They all teach as if you
already know most of the program.

Where are you copying the text FROM? Which app?

Dreamweaver CS3 hangs on "initializing files" in Windows Vista Home Premium

Hi,
Anybody else encountering this issue? I noticed this7 error
in Windows Vista Home Premium. When you launch Dreamweaver CS3, it
opens the splash screen, displays “initializing files”
and thats it.
Necessary Troubleshooting steps we’re already done to
attempt to launch/fix the program but to no avails.
seems the problem happens on acer computers with 4 gigs of
ram.
You can check it from this
Thread
Thanks! I hope someone from engineering can take a look at
this issue!

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
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
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.

Dreamweaver MX 2004 and Windows Vista

Does anyone know if Dreamweaver MX 2004 will install and run
on the new Windows Vista?

Looks like the only thing I can't do is establish a
connection to a db. I
get a 405 error with both DWX 2004 and DW8 trial.
If I manually setup the string in code it will work, but then
you can't use
server behaviors.
Just an FYI

Dreamweaver crash on Windows Vista

I'm having a lot crashes using dreamweaver on Windows Vista,
does any one have the same problem or where I can find a solution
of this problem, thanks

Hi,
the answers here are more than discouraging. first of all was
vista supposed to chip a long time ago. this would have left adobe
a long time to test the product and if it could not be fixed to
issue an warning. it did not do so and that means that adobe was
negligent in its communication.
in addition adobe more or less abandoned the mac market a few
years ago (no CF server, no Videoproducts, etc.) in favor of the
windows platform. it there can be assumed that adobe/macromedia
will support this platform asap and not refer to some time in the
future.
what does this mean for users like us: adobe cannot be used
on the mac platform serioulsy due to the lack of native support for
our intel machines. adobe products cannot be used on the
windowsplatfrom due to incompatibilites. since we are a coldfusion
partner we have no choice but to uninstall vista everywhere and
reinstall XP. who pays us for the time and the licenses.
i cannot understand how adobe for the second time missed the
boat on such an important technology switch. they missed the intel
platform switch and are more than 1 1/2 year late and now they
missed the vista switch... incredible for products that are on the
highprice side of the market.
adobe has the option of either changing it price modell to
low cost solutions or by offering ASAP patches and speeding up a
free upgrade for vista users....
a frustrated and deeply concerned user of former macromedia
products.

Dreamweaver CC not supporting Windows Vista but Photoshop CC is?

Adobe Dreamweaver CC is not supporting Windows Vista, where as Adobe Photoshop CC is? I mean, shouldn't they support the same stuff? Is it because of the build type or something? But this really bothers me. Please let me know if there is a different version of Adobe Deamweaver that I can download, which supports Windows Vista too. Thank you.
- Murtaza

Hi Murtaza,
All CC applications are tested on Windows 7 and above. Please have a look on links below for the tech specs of CC,DW CC and PS CC.

Dreamweaver 8 Bugs in Windows Vista

Thought i would start this thread because i am having mucho
problemes with DW8 in Windows Vista Business Edition. I also know
that at this time DW8 is not supported in Vista, hope this helps
the developers:
Crashes intermittently when embedding
Flash movies in a page, from the button at the top
Crashes sometimes when on open file
dialog box
Cannot update to 8.0.1 - seems to be
working on installation but doesnt update application
Cannot update to 8.0.2 - seems to be
working on installation but doesnt update application

Let me ask you a hypothetical question. How much of new
product development
would you steal to work on such a thing?

Trouble installing DW CS3 on Windows Vista

Hi I really need some help. I'm about to lose it.
I bought DW CS3 directly from Adobe in June '07. I had installed it on my laptop running Win XP. It worked fine and I liked working with DW. My laptop died a couple months ago and I bought a brand new HP desktop. I installed DW CS3 seemingly without any problems. But ... when I go to open DW, ... nothing happens. It doesnt matter where I try to open it from, the Start menu, or the program file in the directory where it was installed. There were no errors or problems during any of the install attempts. Its just when you click on the icon to open DW, it just doesnt do anything. Nothing. As if you didnt even click on it.
I have not been able to find any thread/discussion with this exact problem. I've tried implementing solutions from other install problems posted, but nothing has worked. I tried selective startup. Tried uninstall/reinstall a couple times. Tried repairing the install.
My specs:
HP Pavilion a6750y
AMD Athlon Phenom X4 9650
8GB RAM
750GB HD
Windows Vista Home Premium
Service Pack 1
64-bit Operating System
I'm not a computer expert of any sort, but I know enough to get by.
Can anyone please help? Thanks so much.

Nadia,
Thanks for replying. I just checked out that tech note & tried the regedit thing, but no luck. I seriously can't believe that this is so much trouble.
I also need to just say that I did call Adobe support and unfortunately for me, they need to charge me $40 to help me, because now CS4 is out, so they don't support CS3 for free anymore. This is very very poor business practice on Adobe's part. Most manufacturers of any product, not just software, will continue to support at least the version previous to their newest.
I am an amateur web designer and just like to play around. I was proud of myself for spending $200 my last year of school (econ major, not IT), to get the educational version of what I thought was a top-notch web design software. I cannot afford to pay $40 for help. And I definitely cannot afford whatever the price of CS4 is, since I am not a student anymore. I really enjoyed using DW CS3 on my laptop. Unfortunately as I said before, it is now dead, and apparently, so is my ability to use Dreamweaver.
Shame on you Adobe. I will spread this message far and wide.
If anyone else has any possible solutions to what my problem is, I am willing to try anything. Thanks Nadia & Murray for your suggestions. I will stay tuned to this forum until I have a solution.
