DreamWeaver CC 2014 live view not correct

I am using the new DreamWeaver CC 2014 on Windows 7. I have a html doc using a separate CSS style sheet, JQuery, JQuery UI, and Modernizr. The page is setup using flexbox and displays as expected in Chrome and IE. Everything validates outs without warnings or errors. I turned on live view and the displayed page is not even close to how chrome shows the page.
Is any one else having similar issues?

Hi All,
This issue has been fixed in the latest Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 update, which is now live.
We would encourage all of you to give it a try and would love to know your experience around it.
Please read this post (Dreamweaver October 2014 release is now live! Read this first.) before you proceed with the installation.
Cheers,
Subhadeep

CC 2014 Live view not working

I'm woking with a site on a local server. When I click Live view, it just sits and does nothing and displays nothing. A little blue progress bar in the lower right corner continuously animating. It worked just fine before CC2014.

It's best to start a new thread with new issues.
My guess would be a problem in the code that DWCC doesn't mind, but DWCC 2014 can't handle.
Try running the validator at http://validator.w3.org to get a listing of errors. If it's still not displaying once your page is error free, post back and we can take a closer look.

Testing Server / 'Live View' not working

Hey guys, I'm trying to create my first e-Commerce site in Business Catalyst and having a bit of an issue with setting up testing. I've downloaded multiple basic templates from 'BC' and they all seem to be giving me the same issue.
Issue:
When using Dreamweaver CC's 'Live View' (which seems to be a one stop shop for testing changes without them pusing to the live site) the encompassing template in a page is displayed correctly, but the content area always displays 'Page not Found'. Take a look at the attached image to see exactly what I mean.
I've contacted support and browsed the form, but it seems I am the only one with this issue. Again I've tried it with multiple templates on multiple computers. Am I missing something simple? What does everyone else use for testing? Please help.

Hi,
When you press the "Live" button in Dw, it asks you if you want to save the file before putting. If you select No, and there's also NO such file on the server, then you'll have the "Page not found" message displayed.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Alex

Greetings;
This seems to an ongoing issue (see related discussion link). We've been experiencing the same update lag since last Friday. The new additions to the Collection appear and are accessible in both the iPad and iPhone applications, but even though they additions appear in "Quick View", the material doesn't appear in the Collection itself. Apple is aware of the issue and is investigating. All the best...

Live View not working in Dreamweaver CC 2014

I just installed the new 2014 version and opened the index file of an existing website design. When I click on the live view all I get is blank white screen. I thought it was a time issue and waited for a long time but nothing. I opened other files as well and still just a blank white screen. The installation was done through Creative Cloud as I have a subscription. Is there anything that can fix this? there seems to be some know issues but I didn't find this one among them and perhaps this needs t be added to it if there are others with the same problem.
I am using an iMac with Maverick OS latest version.
Thank you

Hi iraji,
Can you try the solution in this post and let us know if it helped?
Just upgraded to CC 2014. In Live View the window is blank. Was fine in previous CC.

Dreamweaver CS5.5 live view problems

1.) As described in this Thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3204440#3204440 the Live View is very slow, when edit/design a php-page which uses external css files
2.) The live view does not support/show css3 tags, e.g. box-shadow or border-radius, altough the css-panel knows these tags. it is necessary to open the page in a local browser or in multiscreen-preview to see the design.
3.) The live view does not render the jqeury-mobile layout.

-Live View is very slow?
Only when the page contains CSS/JavaScript interactions.
-Live view does not support/show css3 tags?
Correct.
-Live view does not render the jqeury-mobile?
Actually, it does. You need, however, to choose a local path option for
the scripts.
Dreamweaver is a marvelous program, but like everything else made with
human hands and minds - it's not perfect. Live View is a very misleading
feature - actually, the only folks I know who find it useful are
beginners (who believe it works) and authors who write books and
tutorials that teach how to use it. It's worth at least one chapter of
filler
The only truth a novice should pull out of this topic is that when
testing a web page, the only reliable test is that which involves real
browsers.

Internal Server Error; Live View not working...please help:)

I am a beginner doing a tutorial through David Sawyer McFarlands' "CS5: The Missisng Manual. I have MAMP set up and working fine. I just got through doing a tutorial on editing a recordset and linking to a Detail page. I have used Live View just a few minutes ago and it was working fine. However I just tried to click live view again after completing this part of the tutorial and a pop up box says "dynamically-related files could not be resolved because of an internal server error". I have no idea what this error could be. When I type http://localhost/ in my browser it shows a file on the dynamic website we are working on called cosmo_shop. But when I type http://localhost/cosmo_shop the screen goes blank....Can someone help me with this???

Nobody else is likely to have any idea what the error is without seeing the code of the page you're working on. However, you might find Why is my PHP page blank? in the Dreamweaver FAQ points you in the right direction.

SWF Banner works in Live View not in Any Browser? Losing my mind...

Hello,
I'm not a pro but have some web building experience. I'm currently building a website for myself in Dreamweaver CS5. I made a simple flash banner where pictures fade in and out. I placed it into my template and it works fine in Live View but not in Chrome, Firefox or IE.
It has gotten to the point where I am losing my mind.
I create a new HTML doc. Drag and drop ANY swf file. Saved Swf files as flash 8 and flash 9 even. Updated my flash last night for my browsers. Again... See it fine in Live View and not in the browsers i've mentioned.
The browsers (except chrome which displays nothing) show this message.
Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.
Even after flash updates and using a swf file saved as an older veriosn of flash (tried 9,8 and 5 for a laugh).
Here is the html code (all generated by Dreamweaver). I am totally baffled and have spent HOURS scrying the internet to no avail. I even tried this in a trial version of Dreamweaver CS6 but had the same reslut. Please help me. What's going on?

SWF (Flash) animations won't work in iPhone, iPad, iTouch, Android or any other web device that lacks support for Flash. Do yourself & your site visitors a favor. Use jQuery instead of Flash.

Live View not working

In DW CS4 Live View is not working for me. I keep getting the
message "Live View needs Netscape/Firefox flash plugin. I tried
downloading that from Adobe but to no avail. Help. I am still
learning this program and trying to do my first web page and can't
get Live View to work.

Looking through the archives, it seems you are about the 6th
person to
have this problem.
The one and only message that says it was resolved, says that
they
called Adobe support and were provided an FTP link to a file
that fixed
it for them.
So, I guess I'm suggesting that you call Adobe Support on
this one.

Dreamweaver Jquery mobile live view error

i'm having this problem with my jquey mobile pages, when i preview in firefox the links works perfectly but when i use the live view in dreamweaver some of the links do not work. i'm passing url parameters from one page to to other.

Hi Ezzuah1,
If they are working fine in all the browsers that you test, and not in Live view, I wouldn't worry too much.
Thanks,

Css shows in live view, not in design view

Hi all-
I'm new to dreamweaver and was trying to move a site I have already coded into dreamweaver, hopefully to be able to find errors but mostly to be able to update more quickly in the future.
I've noticed one pecularity (at least to me!) - I have some basic "rounded corners" with css that show up properly in the "Live View" or in a browser, but in design view they are just standard boxes with no css attributes added.
Is this normal, or is it something in my code?

It's most likely completely normal. I know in my DWCS4, it doesn't recognize any CSS3 items in Design View.
As long as your pages are validating and previewing in the browsers correctly, you're good to go.
You can run the validators here to check for errors...

DW CS4 - Design/Live view not available with PHP

I am working with PHP documents but both Live View and Design View are grey and unavailable with PHP documants open. I am using MAMP and have set up local info and testing server in the site set up dialog several times myself and with the help of some web search with no difference. Any thoughts on what may be some things to check would be greatly appreciated.

Hoooo Leeeee Moe Leeee...
QUOTE"
Have you changed your preferences to open PHP pages in Code view?
In the File Types/Editors category of Preferences, if you add .php to the list of file name extensions in "Open in code view", it disables Design view and Live View for that type of file.
I can not believe I searched for over 30 minutes to find out that adding .php to this field; disables one of the ONLY reasons I purchased CS5.
Just for giggles, why would it be designed like this? "Open in code View" = a prefrence to what screen type you see, not, "I want to disable CS5 to pre CS2 version"...
Well, just my two cents. Now that I know, I will never do that again... So, Next question. Is there a way to make Dreamweaver by default open in code view, without setting the tempting box to do it for you?
Thanks ahead of time. By the way, I am greatful that someone has the answers! and I am glad that person is you sir = Enter the Adobe Expert.

CS5 Dynamic Files Live View NOT WORKING

Hi, I just installed CS5 suite. I'm trying to work on a Drupal layout. I am trying to use a testing server off site. When I try to connect it says the site definition is not correct for this server, but when I go into server settings both the testing and remote server connections work and connect as expected.
Is this feature only available if you are running the live view from your local host? If so, do I need to set up the websites on my Mac in my php HTML server folder? That is a pain because I don't save my sites to my boot disk...
Jeff

Well, I found one problem. The upload is ftp but when it copied the testing server it listed the home url as ftp.domain.com instead of as www.domain.com
I updated that and it now connects, but the template page in any of my Drupal themes all show up as blank pages. I see that you can only edit the currently active theme. So far so good.
Jeff

Why does Live View not work with the following: @media only screen and (max-width: 480px)?

When I use the above media query in my stylesheet Live View ceases to update the viewport. I have to update it manually each time I add or change a style. This is not the case when I use styles under a common tablet sized query @media only screen and (max-width: 768px), or when there is no query at all. Is this a bug or is there something I am missing here?

Code errors might account for the discrepancy. Validate your code and fix any reported errors.

DW CS4 Live View Not Working

I have migrated within a week of buying DW CS3 to DW CS4 and
have been spending the last 24 hours or so watching the excellent
videos on lynda.com for CS4.
I then decided to take the plunge and start producing my own
content. The first thing I wanted to see was how to drag and drop
an Excel file into an HTML page.
Firstly, DW seemed to generate a file link only without
presenting me with a dialogue box to let me choose what I wanted to
do.
Secondly when I then tried to switch to Live View I was faced
with the message that
Live View needs Netscape/Firefox Flash Plugin
I have searched Help and the Adobe site for this plug in but
have got nowhere ... can anyone please save me a load of time and
heartache and tell me what I need to do?
I thought it might be an Excel problem so I tried to do the
same with a Word file and faced the same problem.
Thanks for your attention!

You can't. To import the content of an Excel file, select
File > Import
> Excel Document. Warning: it doesn't work very well. You
get only the
worksheet that was open when the Excel file was last closed.
You also
frequently get a lot of empty cells at the bottom. It's much
better to
copy and paste from Excel.

Same answer. You can't drag and drop Word into an HTML page.
Select File
> Import > Word Document. This works much better than
Excel.
