Dreamweaver CS3 strange FTP problem

Helllo,
I have just passed from windows to Mac (I got Leopard) .... I
have installed Dreamweaver CS3
and I have imported all the site definition (like Host FTP,
username, password, etc...) from the windows version
But when I try to connect to any server, I recive this error
"An FTP error occured - cannot make connection to host
no response from the server this may be due to one or more
reasons:
- Accessing the server requires firewall settings that aren't
properly set. Please verify that the firewall settings in the Site
category of the Preferences dialog box are properly set, and that
the Use Firewall option in the Site definition dialog box is
selected.
- The server may be accepting only passive mode or only
active mode. Toggling the "Use Passive FTP" checkbox may help you
establish a connection.
- If you are connecting to an IPv6 enabled server, please
select "Use IPv6 transfer mode" checkbox in the Advanced site
definition dialog.
- Your local firewall may be blocking the incoming FTP data.
Please disable it to see if it makes a difference.
- It is possible your FTP may be using a non-standard FTP
port (21). If you need to specify a non-standard port, enter the
port number after host name separated by a colon":". "
I have tryed to use other FTP programs and I got mix results:
Cyber Duck and Fetch are working
Fugu and Filezilla for Mac do not connect to any server
I am clueless .... .... can someone give me a hand?
thanks in advance

Are you running a firewall?

Dreamweaver CS3 First Run problems

Installing Dreamweaver CS3 Saga.
I've had some trouble and despite looking for answers and
trying a few things I'm getting nowhere. I've included a timeline
of events below to help explain.
0) System: New Dell Opliplex 745 running XP Pro Sp2 and
networked to a domain. Educational License ordered for MOPS school.
Disk delivered.
1) Tried installing in regular user's account. When it
prompted for admin details, I entered them, but it didn't work.
Insufficient rights to install, fair enough.
2) Logged on as domain admin. Tried installing. Failed!
Insufficient rights. Hmmm.
3) Logged on to local computer as administrator. Installed.
Success! However, could not find the serial number so selected
"trial" option. All worked ok. Emailed supplier to find out why
serial was not included with disk.
4) Gave regular user full admin rights on computer to avoid
future hassles.
5) Obtained serial from supplier (it was on the invoice).
Entered serial number while logged on as user. Dreamweaver accepted
serial but then a blank dialog box (titled Adobe Dreamweaver CS3)
opened over the top of the rest of Dreamweaver and froze up access
to Dreamweaver. Can't close box, can't interact with box apart from
moving it around over the top of DW. It doesn't count as a separate
window in the task bar.
6) Ended Dreamweaver process, loaded it again. Blank dialog
box appeared yet again however Dreamweaver began some adobe
updating. ~140mb download. Around 20mb in, some files began
installing - so far so good. Then, adobe updater vanished and we're
back to frozen dialog box.
7) Restarted computer. Logged on as user again, ran
Dreamweaver again. Frozen blank dialog box again HOWEVER I did find
that if I was quick I could interact normally with Dreamweaver,
open files, etc for a few seconds until dialog box kicks in. Also
when ending the task instead of ending the process, the windows
message says "The system cannot end this program because it is
waiting for a response from you. To return to windows and check the
status of the program, click cancel. If you choose to end the
program immediately, you will lose any unsaved data. To end the
program, click End Now." Obviously this refers to the blank dialog
box but I can't interact with the box so I can't respond to DW.
8) Remembering previous troubles, logged off and logged on to
local machine as administrator. Ran Dreamweaver again. This time an
initial dialog box asking about file associations popped up. Then,
Adobe update began running, this time 120mb download. Once again,
around 20mb in, some files installed and then Dreamweaver frozen
dialog box once more is revealed. The rest of the updates are
nowhere to be seen, adobe updater does not seem to be running any
more.
9) Found an issue in forums with corrupt Bonjour installation
causing DNS trouble. Figured this might be affecting the updates,
uninstalled the service as outlined elsewhere on this forum. Did
not help.
10) Decided to attempt a repair install from the disk. It
seemed to work but then only the shared components seemed to
install. But underneath that in the installation window, it said
both Dreamweaver and the Shared Components failed to install. So
did it fail or did it not fail? Your guess is as good as mine.
11) Ran Dreamweaver again. This time, a green "scrolling
credits" style window appeared, with "Click here to continue". Upon
clicking, the credits window disappeared and all looked well. I
alt-tabbed to something else but when I went back into Dreamweaver
the blank dialog window was back again.
I've searched the net, and scanned these forums but I am
unable to find a similar issue or any clue as to how to proceed
next.
I am going to try to uninstall Dreamweaver and reinstall it
fully, while logged on as local admin, probably I will use the CS3
clean script that I found on the forums to make sure its all gone;
and then I will enter the serial at the same time as installation
to avoid ever triggering the trial installation conditions. In the
meantime if anyone has any suggestions feel free to chip in with
ideas.
PS Further information which I just remembered: Internet
access is restricted by a proxy. Adobe updater worked fine after
giving it username and password to log on to the proxy. Perhaps
this frozen screen is trying to access the internet?

Further information - when I tried to uninstall I was advised
by the uninstaller that I should deactivate CS3. But I couldn't
find how to do that in the few seconds before everything freezes.
I had an inspiration to pull the network plug out and sure
enough, the frozen window became a window which reads:
Dreamweaver is unable to connect to the internet to register
your product. I selected "Register Never" so hopefully this will
fix my problem!

Dreamweaver CS3 Paste HTML Problem

Hi, I'm a fairly basic user of Dreamweaver CS3. I used to be
able to paste HTML into webpages with no problem. I have recently
upgraded to CS3 and that menu command (Paste HTML) seems to have
gone. Can anybody help?
Thanks, your help would be appreciated!

If you want to paste the actual HTML code into a page, just
switch to
Code view, and paste.
Copy, cut, and paste in Dreamweaver are context-specific. If
you copy a
section of a page in Design view, and paste it in Design
view,
Dreamweaver automatically copies and pastes the underlying
HTML. If you
copy in Code view, and paste into Design view, Dreamweaver
assumes that
you want to display the code (as you might want to do in an
online
tutorial), so it converts all the angle tags into HTML
entities and
displays the tags and attributes in the page.
The simple rule is copy and paste from Code view to Code
view, or from
Design view to Design view.

Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Slideshow problems

Hello,
First off, my name is Mike and I would really appreciate anything that you can do to help me.
I'm attempting to use Dreamweaver CS3's Flash Slideshow on a site that I'm building for a friend and I'm having troubles. I have two major issues:
1. I've uploaded my page to a test folder located on my own site.
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/Main.html
As you can see when you go to that page the Flash Slideshow is not appearing. I've attempted to figure this issue out as much as I can, but I'm not getting anywhere.
Using Dreamweaver to test I've deleted the AC script and it appears exactly like how it does now that it's live, so I believe that the problem lies in the Slideshow being able to find the script. What I don't understand is that the AC_RunActiveContent.js is in a folder titled '..Scripts' (which is located in the same 'NoahTest' folder as the 'Main.html')and there should be no problem with it sourcing the Script.
I'm perplexed as to why it's not reading the .js file.
2. When I preview the site in my Dreamweaver Preview it works fine, except for the fact that it looks like it's padding the size of the pictures.
I have all of the dimensions specific to the size of the slice in my site. The slideshow should be 924x668 to match the slice exactly, so that's what I told it to be in width and height. I've turned all borders to 0, frame thickness to 0, and I've even tried to add a command to change cell padding to 0, all with no effect. I've made a still screen capture for you to see my problem.
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/WhiteBorderProblem.jpg
I've left the Background White so you can see how it's not sizing the Slideshow correctly. So the White Border isn't really a border, but a sizing/spacing issue. I don't know what could be causing this.
If you could help me with one or both of these issues I would be so grateful. Thanks for your time.
Respectfully,
Mike

So, bemdesign, you're not seeing the white padding-like effect that I snapped a screen shot of? See here:
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/WhiteBorderProblem.jpg
I've tested the page 'Main.html' that I have live right now using Firefox, IE8, and Safari, and it's still doing this padding issue for me (if that's even what it's supposed to be called).
After a little research I found a post on another site where tons of people are having the same problem as me:
http://brianchau.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/where-is-the-flash-element-in-dreamweaver/
The very last post someone mentions that they fixed the issue that I'm experiencing by adding div tags specifying width and height. I've tried implementing this, but since I'm somewhat novice with coding still I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. Adding the div tags in various places seems to have either no effect or it changes the w & h values of the entire page, both of which not being my intention.
Can anyone here who is more advanced at coding than me who can tell me the proper way to implement the div tags in my situation?
This is the code for my page:

Dreamweaver CS3 Site Manager Problem

I am using Dreamweaver CS3 and when I define my sites in the
Site Manager, for some reason now when I definte the Host
Directory, which looks like this:
"//caflsd/share/DEPTS/BIOSCI/BSWeb/ " (note the two "/" at the
beginning) once I hit the done button and try to connect, I get an
FTP error, and when I go back in to the Site Manager, I will see
that one of the slashes in front of the Host Directory Address is
removed, so it looks like this "/caflsd/share/DEPTS/BIOSCI/BSWeb/"
which misses the first slash. When I put it in manually while in
the Site Manager and test the connection while in the Site Manager,
it works fine...however, when I hit OK and Done, it always cuts out
the extra "/" and then the site will not connect outside of the
Site Manager. How can I get it to stop this?

i posted a reply. sorry new to this forum. the only message I receive is that there is no repsonse from the server. Initially I can connect fine and downloand all remote files. It is only when I go to upload that I get disconnected. I can upload fine with an older version of DW. I do not know if I can upload to other sites.
I called my server and was told everything on their end was fine and they tested it and was able to upload. So I am thinking it must be DW CS3

Broadcasting your serial number to the entire internet probably isn't going to help things in the activation department.

Dreamweaver CS3 Design View Problem

I am trying to edit a Dreamweaver site using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Windows XP workstation at work. The site structure was developed by an outside vendor and has been designed using CSS for positioning -- no tables. It is my responsibility to finish the site using template pages provided. When viewing the site in several browsers -- both Mac and PC, everything is fine. When I open the site in Dreamweaver CS3 Windows, all of the positioning is off -- the menus that should be flush left of the text colum, instead, appear at the top of the text column. This issue is repeated throughout the site. Since I am using existing pages as templates for new ones, I'm forced to make edits in code view, upload and then view in my browser. My outside vendor, so far, does not have an answer to this.
This weekend at home, I've installed an old Dreamweaver 8 trial version on my Macintosh. I downloaded the site and everything looks fine in Design View. Any ideas? Is this a settings issue on my Windows version of Dreamweaver? I do have the Style Rendering setting set to Screen Media type.

Hi,
I found this thread after searching and searching for an answer as to why my Design View in DW CS3 started disappearing (even in split view). It will show a partial view, but never the entire view all at once, even after restarting my PC. I have been using CS3 for a few years now and it just started having this issue. When this issue started, nothing had changed on my computer. There has to be a fix for this. Why did it work fine all these years and now, no design view????

Dreamweaver CS3 - Database Panel Problem

I set up a site in Dreamweaver CS3 trial - my ColdFusion data
driven pages display OK in browser preview but I when I try to
display my datasources in the Database panel I get error "server
name or address cannot be resolved" even though the server name is
correct and working. The site's testing server is set up properly
(they run in the browser) and coldfusion is running properly.
I removed the connection scripts but that was no help. I'm
using the miserable SQLServer 2005Express (I tried checking
security permissions in WinXP - my file system is NTFS so there
*should* be a "Security" tab present in properties for me the
change permissions but it's not there...
i've run out of ideas - does anyone have any suggestions that
I can try?
thanks!

I can't help you with the central issue, but permissions in
XP are
controlled by a setting in folder options.
start, control panel, folder options, view. Near the bottom
of the list
is an option that by default is checked - "Use simple file
checking".
Try unchecking it, and you should be able to access the full
security
tab for files.

Dreamweaver CS3 frameset browse problem

When I click to preview in a browser for a .CFM file which
contains a frameset, Dreamweaver opens the browser with the
PHYSICAL path (eg. C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\mysite\frameset.cfm) and
so all that is displayed in the browser is markup. On the other
hand, if I click to preview in a browser for any other .CFM file,
Dreamweaver correctly opens the page using the web url (eg.
http://localhost:8501/mysite/test.cfm)
and so the page is parsed properly.
Also, If I click the "Live Data Viewer" button on the
frameset page, then I get a message:
The testing server did not execute any of the scripts in your
document. Possible explanations: Testing server is not running.
Testing server ignores .cfm files.
That message only occurs on the frameset page. Other .CFM
pages display correctly in the Live Data Viewer.

Broadcasting your serial number to the entire internet probably isn't going to help things in the activation department.

Dreamweaver CS3 and FTPS

Crystaltech, my hosting service, this last weekend removed
FTP as an option to connect to their servers, instead touting the
FTPS format/protocol. Now Dreamweaver won't connect to my server
and I have to use FileZilla to download files, open in Dreamweaver,
save changes in Dreamweaver, load FileZilla, connect to server,
upload, then refresh browser for changes. This is INSANE!! What
used to take a minute for changes is now taking 5.
Here are my questions: Has anyone else encountered this, and
if so, what solution did you use or is everyone having to do this
multi-step process for file editing? Is there a 3rd-party add-in
extension which handles this issue that I should know about? Will
the developing team @ Adobe be addressing an upgrade/add-in to
support this more-safe technology?
Frustrated in Seattle,
Douglas

I have CrystalTech and Dreamweaver gets and, puts just fine.
Make sure the
Use passive FTP is checked.

Flash CS3 Strange IDE Problem

Hi --
I am having a totally bizarre issue with the Flash CS3 IDE in
that my
"Output" window is always blank. This just started happening
to me today. I
have tried creating a new Flash movie and putting in a single
line of
Actionscript:
trace("Hi")
When I run the movie the Output window pops up but its blank.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Rich

Hi --
It was the "filter level" setting. I changed it from "none"
to "verbose" and
all is good. I never even knew that setting existed so I have
no idea how I
changed it! Thank you so much.

Dreamweaver CS3 Div Alignment Problems.

I have been building a website on my new MacBook. I have it
just about done so I uploaded it to my web host to check out the
appearance. It looks great on my Mac, but I checked it on my
parents PC and it looked terrible. Being a new Mac user, I thought
it was something going on with the operating systems, but I checked
it on a Mac deskop and the alignment was still messed up. On the
Mac desktop it is too far to the left and on the PC it is too far

I noticed if you drag the window to a different size the
images behind the div move, but the div stays in place. Is there
some kind of code or something that I can do to make it stay in the
designated area on every computer regardless of settings?
Thanks.

Thats because you are using Absolutely Positioned
<divs> so they stay...
well.... Absolutely Positioned i.e., they WILL NOT move as
you increase
or decrease the width of the browser window.
Solution:
Open your page and go to code view
FIND THIS PIECE OF CODE:
<div align="center"><img src="
http://www.potomacsouth.com/Site-Top.jpg"
width="832" height="558" /><br />
CHANGE IT TO:
<div style="position: relative; width: 832px; margin: 0
auto;">
<img src="
http://www.potomacsouth.com/Site-Top.jpg"
width="832"
height="558" /><br />
NOW FIND YOUR ABSOLUTELY POSITIONED <DIV> CODE:
<div id="apDiv2">
<p class="style6"><u><span
class="style8">Welcome</span></u><span
class="style8">!</span></p>
<p align="left" class="style5"> Welcome to

</div>
MOVE IT TO DIRECTLY BETWEEN THE TWO LINES OF CODE YOU
ORIGINALLY
CHANGED. SO IT LOOKS AS BELOW:
<div style="position: relative; width: 832px; margin: 0
auto;">
<div id="apDiv2">
<p class="style6"><u><span
class="style8">Welcome</span></u><span
class="style8">!</span></p>

NOW FIND THE 'apDiv2' CSS IN THE HEAD SECTION OF YOUR PAGES
CODE AND
CHANGE THE 'LEFT' AND 'TOP' POSITIONING AS BELOW.
#apDiv2 {
position:absolute;
width:315px;
height:358px;
z-index:1;
left: 70px;
top: 160px;
overflow: auto;
THATS IT. IT SHOULD NOW MOVE AS YOUR BACKGROUND IMAGE MOVES

FTP Bug Dreamweaver CS3

There is a issue with Dreamweaver CS3 and ftp connections. For some reason if I leave dreamweaver open for a few hours and come back, I get an error when saving to the web server that an ftp error has occurred. There is no problem with ftp service on the server and no the users are not maxing out the connection.
The simple yet odd fix is to restart dreamweaver. The problem is that dreamweaver should not do this. If i have saved documents and open from the remote, and if the remote over rides the local, I have lost changes made to given file.
Dreamweaver's ftp bug is a problem. Having 18 specific documents open in dreamweaver, just to have to close and re open dreamweaver just to save files to a known working ftp server.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Those seem like good practices.
As far as the firewall issue, I am very sure that it is not the firewall, unless its a bug with windows firewall being disabled and dreamweaver checking its status and getting confused. The windows firewall is disabled by group policy and being a local admin, I am sure of this.
Just to give a better idea of the issue.
I come in at 8, and I open dreamweaver. I open files edit them, save them, which by my settings ftp's saved files. I have no problem saving the files to the remote server.
Around 12 ish i leave for lunch and I come back to dreamweaver. Dreamweaver, is the way i left it, it has a few of the files I am working on open inside of dreamweaver. I make a change to any given file and save it, i then get the FTP error. I could try changing the "site" i am working on and connect to its ftp, just to get an FTP error. I leave dreamweaver in its current state, and i open filezilla and ftp into the same server as well as delete, rename, copy files to the ftp.
In order to resolve the connecting to ftp issue, I have to close and reopen dreamweaver. And only after doing that can i access any ftp server through dreamweaver.
If i could never get to the ftp server through dreamweaver, I would assume a firewall issue, but that is not the case.

Dreamweaver CS3- Add this button code help

Hi, I have a problem in Dreamweaver CS3. The problem is that when I insert my add this button code, in to the codeing area, it does not work.
When I open my page in chrome, it simply says 'more shraeing services'. I will copy the code, in to this discussion. I would be greaftful if someone
can help me resolve this problem, so I can get the add this button to work on my site. The final bits of code are as follows-

<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style">
<a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
<a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">var addthis_config = {"data_track_addressbar":true};</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=ra-4dd57258352fac8e"></script>

</div>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
</body>
</html>
Is there anything in this piece of code I should edit in order to make the add this button work? Many thanks

A link to your page would be the best possible way to get help with this.
Code fragments don't tell the whole story.
