You cannot however, upgrade from owing a Macromedia suite and

Dreamweaver CS3 Upgrade

I have purchased a copy of Dreamweaver CS3 Upgrade and on
installation my previous Dreamweaver 8 version serial number is not
recognised
I have reread the upgrade paths and it looks as though I have
made an error. I hadn't appreciated Adobes new upgrade route for my
Studio 8 using the Creative suite option.
As a result although I own a full version of Studio 8 I
purchased a copy of Photoshop CS2 and upgraded it to CS3.
I then purchased an upgrade of Dreamweaver CS3 expecting to
be able to upgrade using my Dreamweaver 8 in Studio 8.
This has probably cost me more than if I had just upgraded
using Creative Suite.
I am not expecting something for nothing but I have genuinely
made a mistake and all I need is a working legal copy of
Dreamweaver CS3 to work alongside my Photoshop CS3.
I made the mistake and have entered a support Web case on the
Adobe Web Site with no answer as yet (two weeks so far)
could you please advise me on the best way to put it right
without costing another fortune.
Thanks
Tony Prodger

Thanks Tony. I've forwarded your info to our European support
team for
investigation. Please post back if you don't hear from
someone in the next
few days.

Photoshop CS3 to Dreamweaver CS3 CSS question

Hi all,
I am sorry if this is allready dicussed a couple of times.I did a search and just could not find it. When I export a site from Photoshop CS3 to DIV (generate CSS by ID) it is aligned to the left and all DIV's have a specific position on the page. How can I get my site to center in Dreamweaver CS3 without having to adjust al separate DIV's?
For Example: When I export from Photoshop all slices are exported as folowed.
#Table_01 {
position:absolute;
left:auto;
top:0px;
width:832px;
height:562px;
right: auto;
#test-13 {
position:absolute;
left:275px;
top:26px;
width:9px;
height:189px;
#test-14 {
position:absolute;
left:284px;
top:26px;
width:128px;
height:98px;
I know how to make a DIV center (with Margin auto left and right) but I do not know how to center all DIV's at once.
I hope you are willing to help me with this. In case you have more questions let me know.

The answer is to not let Photoshop write either your HTML or your CSS for you. What you show is a disaster waiting to happen, really, and is characteristic of the kind of mess produced by any wizard that writes HTML based on a graphic layout. Use your graphics editors to produce your graphics. Build your page in DW. It's a much better way to go.
I know how to make a DIV center (with Margin auto left and right) but I do not know how to center all DIV's at once.
I hope you are willing to help me with this. In case you have more questions let me know.
Leaving your page with all absolutely positioned elements is really asking for trouble, but here's how to make them all center at once -
Change this -
</head>
to this -
<style type="text/css">
#wrapper { width:760px; margin:0 auto;position:relative; }
/* 760px will display on an 800px screen maximized browser window without */
/* horizontal scrollbars. Change as needed */
</style>
</head>
change this -
<body ...>
(the ellipsis represents any other attributes that might be mentioned in the body tag, and SHOULD NOT BE INCLUDED EXPLICITLY!)
to this -
<body ...>
<div id="wrapper">
and this -
</body>
to this -

</div>
</body>
and see if that helps.

DReamweaver CS3 tryout question

I have installed the tryout version of Dreamweaver CS3 on my
computer.
Is there a way to make a "custom" installation? Presently it
just installs everything without giving the opportunity to make
selections, except for the installation location and the file
associations. Is this because I am dealing with a tryout, or would
I have the exact same procedure if I were to buy the "boxed"
edition?
As I already have Photoshop CS2 installed, I already have its
version of Bridge installed. So, now I find myself with 2 Bridges.
Is this OK? Is there a way to uninstall one of them?
Also, the tryout version installs something called "Bonjour
Service" Can anybody tell me what is the function of this
application? What does it do exactly? Do I need it?
Thanks to all

There is no way to alter the installation process,
unfortunately.
And Bonjour is a way for DW to discover any online network
servers for
VersionCue, even though the latter app doesn't work in CS3.
Unfortunate....

Dreamweaver CS3 trial question

First and only to make sure I don't come out looking totally
stupid, is the Dreamweaver CS3 compatible with Vista?
If so, why can I NOT use it? I click the I want to try for 30
days and it gives me an error.
I also tried the Photoshop CS3 trial a few months ago and it
did the same thing and nothing I did could bring it up so I
uninstalled it.
what the hell?
Thanks
George

I don't even have Vista and I'm getting the same problem. I
have Windows XP Home Edition and I recently rebooted my PC yet
before the reboot all Adobe products had always worked fine. Now I
just get an error message saying 'A problem was encountered while
trying to load the trial period for Adobe CS3' and then tries to
force me to enter a serial code which I don't have. Is there no fix
because I know that plenty of others are having the same
problem.

I can't reinstall my Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 Upgrade (which was bought against Adobe Golive 6)

I worked with it since 2009 and now following a crash I need to reinstall on Windows 8.1 but impossible as Golive is not anymore in the options proposed as fromer version. No possibility to contact customer service. Any idea how to manage this and recover my software back...I am completely stuck
Thx for help

I think you're right, you're stuck. Neither GoLive or CS3 are supported by Adobe anymore and I've never seen anyone install GL on Windows 8, which is what you would need to do first in order to install the CS3 "from GoLive" Upgrade version.
I think your only real options would be to pick up a copy of DWCS6: Creative Suite 6 (outdated and not receiving updates, but still available from Adobe)
Or get a subscription to the Creative Cloud (you get a discount on the first year as a previous owner of CS3): Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud
Through the CC subscription you can install DWCS6, CC and CC 2014.1 all as separate installations.

Dreamweaver CS3 instead of CS4

I do design for print and every year more and more customers
have asked me if I would design their web site after I have
designed their brochures and other collateral. For the last nine
years I have never found the time to learn web production. I
purchased Adobe PageMill and then upgraded to Adobe GoLive 5 but I
have never found the time to learn these programs. But lately,
requests for web design have persisted. I downloaded the trial
version of Dreamweaver CS4 but it is too slow on my 1.25 GHz MDD
Dual G4, running Mac OS 10.4.11.
So I purchased the Dreamweaver CS3 upgrade, which was still
available from Officemax.com. I also purchased "Dreamweaver CS3:
The Missing Manual" by David McFarland. I'll be going through the
tutorials on weekends trying to become functional with Dreamweaver.
I'll be using it in WYSIWYG mode and not as a HTML
coder.

Like kiusau, I'm wondering what your question is. But let me
make this
suggestion. If you have no intention to learn HTML and CSS,
then you will
be doing your clients a disservice by charging them for a
website built
using a WYSIWYG approach. Have you considered partnering with
a competent
web developer to provide this service to your customers? This
could be a
win-win arrangement for all three of you.

Dreamweaver CS3 instead CS4 for optimization on older hardware . . .

Dreamweaver CS3 instead CS4 for optimization on older hardware . . .
I do design for print and every year more and more customers have asked me if I would design their web site after I have designed their brochures and other collateral. For the last nine years I have never found the time to learn web production. I purchased Adobe PageMill and then upgraded to Adobe GoLive 5 but I have never found the time to learn these programs.

I'll be using it in WYSIWYG mode and not as a HTML coder.

I would have been happy to make DWCS4 my first step up to Dreamweaver but with it not officially supported on G4 Macs and all the menus at the top running way too slow, I needed to stick with what is officially supported for the G4 by Adobe, Dreamweaver CS3.
It is possible that future updates of DWCS4 will be more optimized and do OK on my G4. It is also possible that running my outdated version of Font Reserve 3.1.4, under Mac OS 10.4.11, is slowing down the menus on DWCS4 on my machine even Acrobat 7 Pro gives me slow menus with my current set up.
InDesign CS3 is fast enough on my system and IDCS4 runs just as fast as IDCS3 on my Dual MDD G4.
I don't think I will be getting an Intel-Mac desktop and laptop until 18 months from now.

Upgrade vs Full version of Dreamweaver CS3

Several questions:
1. I have DW MX 2004. If I upgrade to CS3 is it the same as
if I purchased a full new version of CS3? Will it function with
other users who have the new full version CS3 on their machines.
2. If CS3 upgrade is the way to go. I presently have MX 2004
on my laptop and on my desktop. Will I be able to install the
upgrade CS3 on both machines?
Thanks
Mike Garey

Question on Dreamweaver CS3 book

I'm on page 339 of the Essential Guide To Dreamweaver CS3 and come across "Installing the PHP snippets collection" with the first point winding up by saying "If Dreamweaver is closed, Launch Adobe Extension Manager CS3 By going to "Finder>Applications (MAC)"
When I go to the Finder menu there is no sub-menu called Applications. Should I simply open the hard drive and go to the Applications folder to access the Extensions manager?
I'm fairly Mac-savvy but have not used the extensions manager since OS 9.2.2. I'm running OSX Tiger at this time.
TIA,
Ken

To LRK, the book mentions first that the extensions manager can be accessed from within Dreamweaver but that Dreamweaver will have to be restarted for the change to take effect. I was interested in installing the PHP snippets collection in the way the book says is possible from the Mac Finder > Applications because I was not aware of how that worked. In the finder there is a menu item above called 'Finder' but the pull-down menu from there does not contain 'Applications' so I assumed next that the book meant that from the finder I needed to access the Applications folder. Now I have searched there, both in the Utilities folder, and in the Dreamweaver folder and there is nothing that says Extensions Manager as I remember from OS 9.2.2. I didn't even think OSX had an extensions manager. I wanted to learn something new about the Mac I was not aware of about OSX.
To David, Thank you for your gracious patience with me on this, but as you can read above, I am stuck at this point.
Hopefully, I will be able to go back through these threads and be a valuable contributor to the many questions that get asked about PHP and Dreamweaver. I'm in this for the long haul and would value your step by step instruction to me on how to access the Extensions Manager on the Mac from outside Dreamweaver without Dreamweaver running.
Thank You,
Ken
PS: I found this thread after I though it was buried and lost. That is good news.

Question about Dreamweaver CS3 capabilities

I am a new user of Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 and I was wondering
if it is possible to create a website where people can leave
comments directly on the site. If this is possible, how is it
done?

Can you imagine the mush that looking at this WordPress site
would make of a
new user's brain?

Question reinstalling CS3 upgrade.

We are having problems reinstalling CS3 upgrade from CS2.The software has been installed before but these are new pc's as the old ones needed to be replaced.
Thanks
Marilyn Smith

As far as I know, CS3 serial numbers should still work (on the same platform - they are plaform specific). Are you using the serial number from the CS3 installer, or the older CS2 number? The CS2 activation servers have been shut down and new versions that do not require activation (along with new numbers) have been posted on Adobe.com.
Is the serial number being rejected before the installer runs, or is the install successful, but the activation is not?

Upgrade Question CS3, (instaled once)

I have located a person who bought a CS3 upgrade, not realizing it was an upgrade. He has said the store would not take it back because he had tried to install it. He now wants to sell it so he can use the money to put towards the full version.
If he tried to install the upgrade, is it registered during that process, even if he had to stop at the point Adobe asked for proof of a previous version?
I'm wondering if I buy this if we will have to go through the whole transfer "transfer of ownership" process?

it registers after the install, where you give it a whole bunch of info like your name and address. if he didn't do that, he probably didn't register. you can call adobe and confirm it by giving them the serial number. if they say it's not registered, there'd be no reason to go through the transfer (imo).

Floated element breaks Design view in Dreamweaver CS3

I've tried searching for this issue but haven't found a fix yet and could use some help.
I am redesigning a site and am adding a fluid box to the page. This floated element breaks Design View in Dreamweaver CS3 but appears correctly in the Firefox, Chrome, and IE. I can get the element to appear correctly in Design View after I make minor changes to the page's HTML or CSS, however it always breaks when I save the file.
I've tried many work-arounds including adding an absoutely defined container div, altering the various div sizes, adding <div class="clear"> before and after the element, to no avail.
Ideally, I would like to have page appear correctly in Design View so that others in my lab can easily update the page (and not come to me with repeated questions!).
I've included screen prints of how it looks in Design View and how it look in Chrome.
THANKS! J
Design Time error:
Web Browser - correct view:

I'll try CS4; however my main reason for finding a fix is so that others updating the page (w/ CS3) will be able to do so w/ the WYSIWYG editor that we purchased. We will not be upgrading to CS4 anytime soon either.
Thanks

Does Dreamweaver CS3 work with 64 bit version of Windows 7?

Windows 7, 64 bit, Home Premium was clean installed. I had no difficulty reinstalling Dreamweaver CS3, but when I try to open a file I get a message that says." A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Apparently none is. So my question is, does Dreamweaver CS3 work with the 64 bit version of Windows 7? If not, does CS4 work or would I be wasting money by upgrading?

I just installed it and ran it fine. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Make sure it is a clean install from a fresh "boot". I ran into problems the first time when I tried to install it right after I installed another program. I simply uninstalled it.....which took a long long time, but after it was removed and I rebooted, everything went fine.
