Dreamweaver CS3 seems to be crashing with TimeMachine
I just got TimeMachine working with a TimeCapsule. Ever since I've seen
incredible slowdowns and stalls in Fireworks and DW3 keeps crashing on open.
I have to repair permissions to get it to work. Anyone else seen this
muddled behavior? I also am seeing Photoshop open with a message:
"cannot import clipboard, unexpected end of file reached." Seems to be
happening at the same time, and/or working with images from locked CD and
open using FWorks at the same time...
Running fsck finds no errors.

I will say I am very disappointed with Adobe online chat support regarding this matter. the person I got just belw me off and told me to call mon-friday and ended chat. totaslly unacceptable when you pay $50.00 per month and you are not able to be at your computer during their open hours for phone support. Worse yet when you are trying to get some stuff done. Reall makes one wonder why I signed up for such pathetic service!! {ay $600 a year and get nothing but disconnected. Adobe needs to fiox this before it goes viral on social media!!!

Fireworks CS3 OS X constant crashes with complex files
I recently purchased CS3 and started using Fireworks CS3
instead of Photoshop for web development. Absolutely love it. I
started having crashes, mainly on opening complex files created in
Fireworks CS3. A couple weeks ago I formatted my entire system,
starting completely from scratch, only installing the applications
and fonts that I absolutely needed. Nevertheless, I continue to get
Fireworks crashes, which appear by the logs to be related to a
memory leak in Fireworks.
If Fireworks only crashed itself, the issue would be bad
enough. But it brings down several other apps with it. The apps are
different each time. Sometimes it crashes Mail and Dashboard
Calendar, sometimes it crashes Firefox and iCal. Rarely does it
crash only itself. And rarely does it crash all programs. It's
usually a random selection of apps.
All other CS3 apps have worked beautifully. All other apps on
the box work great. And the log is filled with stuff like:
quote:
Adobe Fireworks CS3(299,0xa000cfc0) malloc: *** Deallocation
of a pointer not malloced: 0xfcc2a8; This could be a double free(),
or free() called with the middle of an allocated block; Try setting

So it's definitely a Fireworks issue. And it's too bad. I
love Fireworks for Web Development. Any updates or suggestions
would be appreaciated.

Thanks,
BrianHeaven forbid, Linda! How dare a Fireworks user talk about
his problem with yet another buggy Macrodobe product. The nerve!
Telling him to contact your support is like telling him to contact
the man in the moon because you've run out of cheese.
Brian, I share your frustration. Fireworks has become
completely unstable for me with large or complex files on my Mac.
It works much better on my PC though. It has been my experience
that almost all releases of Macrodobe software works this way on a
mac until late in its product cycle.
This, sadly, seems to be the way Macrodobe works though. :(
This is a user to user forum, Brian. There's not much we can
do about
such issues here. Your best bet would be to contact Adobe
Customer Service.

Dreamweaver CS3 for MAC bug / MySQL with PHP
I am using DW for Windows for over 4 years, this time I have
to change my desktop to a MACBookPro because of the long run time
on battery and best 17" laptop screen. But DW CS3 cannot connection
to my MySQL database on my remote server like Windows version.
After talking to Adobe tech support, they acknowledge that it is a
software bug and there is no fix nor work around. I paid a lot of
money for the CS3 Design premium suite and it is frustrating that
Adobe does event test this basic function and all tech support can
give me with my premium support contract is they submitted bug
report and there is no ETA or anyone will alert me when a fix is
available!!!!!
I just like to share this so any one is thinking about using
Dreamweaver for MAC and need MySQL, you should check with Adobe
before pulling you credit out.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. -
Dynamic drop down list crash dreamweaver CS3
Hi,
I'm having a problem with Dreamweaver CS3.I'm running it with
Vista SP1
I try to create a mysql dynamic dropdown list in AJAX with
this
Tutorial
Once the form is created and when I try to insert the php
code and change the name of the variable , Dreamweaver crash
everytime and close.
I tried also with other tutorial and codes but it crashes
everytime I insert some dynamic dropdown list.
If someone ever encountered this probleme or have any idea
... thanks !!The Preview function is a development feature to demonstrate the results of merging data (the .xml specificed in Form Properties > Preview > Data File) with the .xdp or .pdf. When you open in the form in Reader or Acrobat the same .xml file is not merged with the form automatically.
To get data into a PDF you have a number of options including:
1) use LiveCycle Forms ES server-side solution to do data merge
2) use a data connection to a database or a Web Service
3) use JavaScript importData() or FormCalc get()
To use options 2) and 3) the form has to be rights-enabled for the respective function to work in Reader.
If you use option 3), you can attach the JavaScript 'xfa.host.importData()' to a button or some other event. When importData() fires it will prompt the user with a file browser to pick the .xml. The importData() method will work if the PDF is rights-enabled, only. Open the PDF in Acrobat Professional, from the toolbar, select 'Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader' and save the PDF.
Note, if you specify the .xml file name in importData(), the PDF must be certified. This is for security purposes.

Is Spry wdiget causing my Dreamweaver CS3 to crash?
Recently my dreamweaver cs3 crashed, The last thing I was
doing on dreamweaver CS3 was using the spry tabs widget.
When I tried to run Dreamweaver CS3 application, it would
crash. I then had to reinstall my Dreamweaver following the clean
cs3 routine.
Dreamweaver now runs, but when I try and open the html file
which contained the spry widget it crashes. When I try and open any
other html file its fine. I even tried to open the spry html page
using dreamweaver MX2004, and it too crashed.
However when I view the spry widget page in a web browser, it
works fine.
So I guess the srpy widget is causing problems. If so, how do
I fix it?
thanks
JonTry this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

I am having a lot of problem using dreamweaver cs3. It always crashes whenever i write or copy a piece of code in it. It was alright from last couple of months but now it crashes whenever i start using it.
Hi Javed,
Please reply back with the solution to this problem
well, I don´t know this extension and can´t help you. I was just looking at the iptsolutions.com website, and - apart from not seeing any information related to this extension - they say it´s a "Macromedia Dreamweaver" extension, though Dreamweaver CS3 is an Adobe product.
That said, it might well be that their extensions have simply not been updated for being compatible with CS3, and that´s assumingly why it won´t work here -- however the recommendable way would be to always ask the extension developers, as they are the only ones who can provide first-hand anwers.
Cheers,

Dreamweaver CS3 Preview in Browser
HI there
Dreamweaver CS3 seems not to be forgiving program at all. I
still currently work on the old Dreamweaver MX 6 which proves to be
the good old faithful engine.
Anyway I wanna make this move to DMWCS3 but Its a little of a
culture shock.
Here's the Problem:
I successfully setup the testing server using the wizard to
create a new site, which shows to be successful (
http://localhost/). when you click
TEST URL.
Here's the kicker:
When It's time to preview the page "All you see is "The
source code in the browser". In the old version of Dreamweaver
everything works just fine. Are these programs conflicting with
each other? What the hell is going on?fnOptionF12 will work.
fn tells the keyboard to send the F-xx instead of the special function.
And like I said there is an option in the System Preference to reverse the use of fn and make the F-xx keys work as F-xx instead of the special function. -

Are dreamweaver CS3 templates responsive?
Hello,
I need to create my project that will work also in ipad and the new cellphones? I'm using Dreamweaver CS3, and already almost done with the project when I was asked to have this new parameter - the site has to be responsive to these devices. Will the template in Dreamweaver CS3 work with these devices? I don't currently have these devices to test. How could I test them. If not, any suggestions... Any help, please....
Zandy
[email protected]Unfortunately, CS3 predates the "responsive design" concept by a few years. You can still make responsive designs using it, but it requires more knowledge of handcoding the CSS/HTML. If you look into Media Queries and Responsive Design online, there are quite a few sources that give you the info you'll need. Depending on your level of comfort with CSS and HTML, they may be a great help, or a confusing mess.
http://www.lynda.com is a good resource
As for previewing things for smaller devices, Firefox has a nice little thing built in for that...

i had been working on a website for over a month with
dreamweaver cs3. after having different pages with videos, php form
page and content i uploaded. after a couple of times dreamweaver
started to freeze on me and when it opened the home page was all
blank with some gibberish??? I went recreated the page and next day
when i opened dreamweaver to continue the work.... Again the xhtml
page was BLANK?? Third time I copied another index.html page from
its subfolder and started to work AGAIN... now Dreamweaver just
freezes...... my months worth work is at stake... what's wrong..
and how can i get this fixed?
BTW i even reinstalled Dreamweaver from the original disk but
it still freezes. This is exhausting and very discouraging to use
dreamweaver for website.there is no code. it happened after dreamweaver froze while
quitting application. when i reopened, it has some odd text and
symbols...second time just blank page. -
Dreamweaver CS3 Crashes At Startup
I installed the CS3 web premium suite and all the programs
worked great, including Dreamweaver. After rebooting the PC the
next morning, Dreamweaver CS3 would not launch anymore. I
reinstalled DW but still the same problem. Startup gets as far as
reading the site cache and then totally disappears. I've tried
renaming/deleting the Configuration and the registry key
(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9), and the DW8 site
caches. The other CS3 programs work fine.
What now?I can open Dreamweaver now but I don't think the problem is
solved. Here's what happened:
I took the steps in the article you referenced and some
others, re-started the pc repeatedly with all start-up programs
disabled, and waited in vain for the promised return phone call
from a seemingly diligent guy in Tech Support. When I called Tech
Support the next day, they said that the case number and customer
ID had no reference to this problem so someone would call back. OK,
fine. I'll wait.
I did a "clean update" of ZoneAlarm, remembering that this
had solved some other problems in the past. Later yesterday, I was
cleaning up some experimental website file directories and renamed
a few of them to make more sense of what they were.
When I tried to re-open Dreamweaver later, it paused to tell
me that it could not find the directory for the site referenced in
the site definition and I should go to Manage Sites to fix it.
Since Dreamweaver had crashed repeatedly before reaching this
stage, this was a major victory. The site it was trying to open was
one that I had set up to experiment with some of the new features
in DW CS3 after the initial installation. Fortunately, it was one
that I had renamed earlier yesterday.
The offending directory contained a page with some of the new
Spry widgets (Tabbed Panel and Accordian) and a short slideshow
that I think I made using Bridge.
So, I was able to open the Manage Sites panel and point
Dreamweaver to another site definition. It opened fine and everyone
lived happily ever after.
Unfortunately, the problem is not solved -- just worked
around by coincidence.
Here is some info from the Windows Control Panel's Event
Viewer about the last time that DW crashed: Faulting application
dreamweaver.exe, version 9.0.0.3481, faulting module msvcr80.dll,
version 8.0.50727.163, fault address 0x000142f1.
Hope ths helps Adobe figure out what is causing this crash.
Now that I can open Dreamweaver CS3 and use it, I'm really
impressed with the upgrade.

Dreamweaver CS3 error crash on SELECT
Took me a few hours to figure this out. It was as if only
certain pages would crash DW when I began to work in them about
half way down the page, in code view. Opening the file in notepad,
I deleted line-by-line to find the culprit. Then I ran some test to
figure out the specific cause, and here is the results:
This crashes DW:
<select name="anyname">
<option
value="1"><cfoutput>#now()#</cfoutput></option>
</select>
And this crashes DW:
<select>
<cfset myVar = "One">
</select>
This does not crash DW:
<cfoutput>
<select name="anyname">
<option value="1">#now()#</option>
</select>
</cfoutput>
This does not crash DW:
<select name="anyname">
<option value="1">One</option>
</select>
So, any <cf... code inside a <select> statement will
crash DW (for me). This is bad when I need to do <cfloop>'s
over <options>.
However, this does not crash DW:
<cfselect name="anyname">
<option
value="1"><cfoutput>#now()#</cfoutput></option>
</cfselect>
Notice that the above example is like the first example,
except that I use <cfselect> instead of <select>. That
is my fix for now because it works with <cfselect>.
Any ideas whats going on here? How to fix it or anything?

Yes. This technote should sort it:

Dreamweaver CS3 crashes after Daylight Savings Time ends
In Windows XP x64, Dreamweaver CS3 crashes after
Daylight Savings Time ends. There is a technote that seems to
describe the situation exactly.
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402776&sliceId=1
However...
1) The technote says this happens only with ASP and PHP code.
I'm using ColdFusion. (That's a minor point.)
2) The technote says...
Delete the WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat file from the
Dreamweaver user configuration folder. Note that on Windows, the
Application Data and AppData folders are hidden by default, so
verify that your Windows Explorer folder options are set to View
Hidden Folders. The location of this file is as follows:
Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows Vista:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver
9\Configuration
Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application
Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9\Configuration
However, I coudn't find WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat in
Documents and Settings or in Program Files (86)\Adobe. (The 86 is
because this is a 32-bit program on a 64-bit machine, but all the
rest is the same.) I then searched both directories for *.dat and
there was no file that looked anything like
WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat.
.Can anybody help me?
Thanks!Alan, thanks for the suggestion.
I did the search found the file, deleted it, opened
Dreamweaver CS3, selected the same text -- and it crashed as
before.
THEN I REBOOTED and tried again - NO CRASH. So it seems that
a reboot is an essential part of the fix.
BTW: My situation fit the Technote description exactly. (1)
The crash happened when selecting -- in design or code view --
certain text in a context of HTML intermingled with ColdFusion
code; (2) I had no problem with these files before Daylight Savings
ended; (3) even after that I had no problem with them in Macromedia
Dreamweaver 8 on another machine -- the problem was only on CS3.
So the Technote is correct as far as it goes, but should be
amended as follows:
1) ColdFusion should be included in the types of code that
can be associated with the problem.
2) Instead of deleting WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat, one should
delete WinFileCache-[whatever].dat.
3) A reboot after the deletion may be required.
Anyway, problem solved.
Thank you! -
