Dreamweaver CC for Mac strange new files always created

Hi,
I bought iMac and this is my first Apple product. Now I have installed Dreamweaver and few other apps I use for web design and eveyr time i save a file, whether its, PHP, HTML, CSS, PSD, PNG i get the same file name created next to source file. For example if I save file called EXAMPLE.PHP another file called ._EXAMPLE.PHP is also created. Is there any way to turn this off or these files needs to be saved for Mac?
Thanks and sorry of this sounds like a noob question, but never used Mac OS X.

You should be able to turn off your hidden files to make them go away.
Files starting with a . are supposed to be hidden on the Mac, they're the "users shouldn't need to futz with these" files.

Dreamweaver CS5 for Mac - Files within the whole panel minimize

I'm working in Dreamweaver CS5 for Mac. Dreamweaver is active and open with the Panel open with files, CSS styles etc tabs open. I want to add an image to the my Image folder within the Files tab. Well when I click the Finder icon, it takes focus off Dreamweaver and then the Panel disappears. This makes it difficult to add pictures to my current site I'm working on. Then when I click the Dreamweaver screen again this Panel reappears.
Is there a setting to keep this whole Panel from minimizing or disappearing when Dreamweaver is not on focus?
Thank you.

Assuming you have defined a LOCAL SITE within DW, use INSERT > IMAGE (browse to the image on your local HD or DW Local Site folder)
If image is not already in the DW Local Site Folder, you will get a prompt to copy the image there. Hit YES and tell DW where to put the image within your local site.
Or maybe I'm missing something....

Help with Dreamweaver CS6 for Mac

I am a long time user of Dreamweaver CS 5.5 for PC and recently purchased an IMac. I have a trial version of Dreamweaver CS6 for Mac and am having difficulty displaying an html file in Live View. I always used "Preview in Browser" in CS 5.5 and need this same feature. I have an active site that I imported into CS6 and the site uses templates. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim

Ask in the DW forum.

Dreamweaver CS3 for Mac crash

I want to create a tree panel in my extension. I do a test with "<mm:treecontrol>" and "<mm:treenode>" tags on Dreamweaver CS3 for Mac.
There are only two nodes in the testing tree panel, Dreamweaver crash instantly when I try to drag the node, but it works well on Dreamweaver CS4 for Mac although the tags don't support drag.
Is it a Dreamweaver CS3 for Mac bug?
Does anyone have solution to resolve this issue?
Thanks
Simon

I've been a Mac convert for about 2 years now. Right now, I'm
running DW CS3 on an Intel iMac and it runs beautifully. On my
Powerbook G4 (1.33 GHz PPC G4 and 2 GB of ram) the performance is
slightly lacking. One thing to be wary of with adobe products -
they can be memory hogs. Photoshop is especially notorious for
this.
Also, the more you have installed on a Mac laptop, the slower
it will run. Mine used to take a few minutes to boot because of all
the programs I had installed, and nothing was starting up with the
machine. After a format and clean install it runs like new.
That is something for you to consider, if you have all the
necessary software to reinstall everything you want. I never turn
off any features in DW and I have only had a few buggy problems.
Nothing major though.

HTTPS and MMHttp in Dreamweaver CS3 for Mac

MMHttp doesn't seem capable of HTTPS communication in
Dreamweaver CS3 for Mac.
When I do something like
MMHttp.getText("https://americanexpress.com");
the resulting response has no data and a status code of 0.
With
MMHttp.getText("
http://americanexpress.com");
(i.e. non-SSL) the response has data and a status code of
200.
This works fine on a Windows version of Dreamweaver CS3. Does
anyone have any suggestions?
I've only tried this on a trial version of DW CS3 for Mac.
I'm hoping to get a full version soon.

I managed to get a full copy of Dreamweaver CS3 for the Mac.
HTTPS doesn't work with MMHttp there either.
Do you have any suggestions?

Just switching from CS4 & LR5 on Windows desktops to CS+LR monthly subcription for Mac, with catalogues, files etc residing on external HDD): Anything to be particularly aware of, or beware of, before/during switch?

Just switching from CS4 & LR5 on Windows desktops to CS+LR monthly subcription for Mac, with catalogues, files etc residing on external HDD (due to multi-location living & lots of travel). Anything I need to be particularly aware of, or beware of, before/during switch? Thanks a lot for suggestions, recommendations, tips, experiences. Best, Joachim

The switch should be straight forward but I would start by uninstalling LR 5. This is because there is no specific CC version of Lightroom and you can’t run the creative cloud version and the perpetual version on the same machine. Your catalog and images will be safe and will not be affected by uninstalling. CS4 will not be affected and will still work independently.
Then launch CC desktop and go to the Apps tab. I would recommend installing in this order:
Photoshop CC 2014
Photoshop CC (if you need this to run old plug-ins)
Lightroom 5
If you install in that order LR will automatically recognize Photoshop for external editing from the LR Library.

I'm trying to write a VI that updates a file each time it is run, but on a new day a new file is created which is updated until a new day begins.

I have written a VI to create and update a file as many times as needed on any given day. On any subsequent day a new file is created which for that day will be updated each time the VI is run and so on. The problem is that when I run the VI the first time of a new day, ie when the file is created only data is written to the file and not the header data. When the file is appended, header data, and regular data is properly written to the file. Can anyone tell me how to correct this problem? A copy of the VI that I wrote is attached.
Thanks,
Chuck M.

File - create new on date change.vi ‏15 KB

You had the header information written when there wasn't an existing file, then you overwrote that file with another file consisting only of the data because you wired the "append to file? (new file:F)" the same for both functions (F causes it to create a new file). I put the header writing function in a Case structure because you only want it to execute when this is a new file (otherwise it'll overwrite what's there). Wire the path straight through the False case. I wired a TRUE to the data writing function to always append (because there will always be a file by the time the program gets there).
Jim
PS - a few other observations
Avoid sequence structures
You don't need the property node
Use Path functions (not string)

Mail for Mac on new hard drive won't import Mail from old hd

I recently installed an additional hard drive (running Tiger), but I kept my old one (running Panther), too, to use as a backup.
After resolving a few snags, the data and apps transferred over OK, but two days ago I (very foolishly) tried to make a change in the name I use as Administrator (or at least that's what I meant to do), and all the apps on my new hard drive forgot their passwords, preferences, etc.
What a pain!
I'll eventually get all the preferences, etc., set; but Mail on the new hd also lost everything--addresses, trash, sent messages; and that's got me baffled.
My old hd still has Mail on it (including addresses, etc.), but I haven't been able to import data from it to Mail on the new hd.
In the new Mail, under the File menu, when I choose "Import Mailboxes" and select the button for Mail for Mac OS X, then navigate to Mail on my old hd, it's faint and can't be selected.
Suggestions of any kind would really be appreciated. (And from now on, I'll just live with my name being misspelled as Administrator!)
Thanks a lot,
Richard

Richard,
Welcome to the Discussions.
When trying to import a pre-Tiger mailbox created with Mail, use type "Other", instead of type OSX.
However, if you can replace any copy of the Mail folder on your Tiger drive, and any com.apple.mail.plist in the Preferences folder of your Tiger drive with copies from your Panther drive, Mail will open to say it is ready to import Mailboxes, and will then convert all the mailboxes at once.
However when finished, you will need to check for leftover files, that can become problematic, and to check to see if full conversion took place. See:

Printing in Word for Mac: strange result

Today I tried a simple thing like printing a word page from app Word for mac. Usually I obtain a normal print. But today the result is quite strange: the page is printed in an over stretched form, characters seem stretched in vertical, but with some line missing. I tried to reinstall the Office suite, but same result obtained. I only got to have the page printed by exporting it into iPhoto and printing from there...
Printer HP deskjet 920 C
all settings ok, since printing a sample page from printer driver works fine.
Thanks in advance for helping.

First I would try trashing the MS Word preferences file. That is located at Home>Library>Preferences>com.microsoft.word.plist. Then try again.

Installing backup from my passport for mac to new macbook

Could I use My Passport for mac to install everything thats on my Macbook to a new Macbook Air?

Yes, although if you don't already have a backup on that Passport drive, you can just as easily use Migration Assistant to transfer your files directly from the Macbook. You would connect both computers to your wireless network (or wired to a router, if you have a Thunderbolt - Ethernet adaptor for the Air; this may be faster).
