Dreamweaver CS4 - Existing Site Name Changed in Manage Sites

Please help me! I have an existing site name from Manage Sites become slightly different site name from original.
For example, existing site name was fashionstars, now become ftp://fashionstars, with ftp:// in it. ( It happen when I did some try and error approach to do certain task, or press the wrong buttons etc) Is there any possibility to change back to original name fashionstars and how to do it? Otherwise I won't be able to upload files to remote site because of different site name appeared in Manage Sites.
Should I remove the modified site name ftp://fashionstars and recreate a new site name fashionstars and copy all exiting files from local site folder to new fashionstars?
Regards,
SSYYDD

Additional information, I use MacBook Pro to run Dreamweaver CS4. The existing site has 150 MB file size, hundreds of files, so to recreate new site name, it has to start to create all manually, will take a long time. Is there any other ways I can recreate site fashionstars without to start all over again?
I am very worry about this, it may not be able to fix it. My website is stuck, won't be able to upload files any more.
Another problem is that I lost the SITE DEFINITIONS for fashionstars or htp://fashionstars . When I go to Manage Sites to edit site of ftp://fashionstars, it goes to CONFIGURE SERVER, not the SITE DEFINITIONS for fashionstars or ftp://fashionstars. Please help me.
( note that I use the name fashionstars as an example only, not my real site name)
Thank you.

Version/Referenced File name changes and managing reference files.

I had an issue with wrong version names for reasons of my own DAM workflow. I changed the name in the metadata portion of Aperture and changed the name in the drive the has the referenced files for the versions (and there are no duplicated versions, etc). When I go to manage the referenced files, I get the old version names popping up in the manage reference files window/dialog. the names I want show up elsewhere in Aperture and on the reference external drive, but not in the manage reference files dialog. Is there a way to ensure that all of Aperture knows my new version names and new referenced file names?

Oh, and I did restart the application, but not the machine.

Preview versus Real View Not the Same, Site Definition Errors - Dreamweaver CS4

I am having trouble working on sites where it seems that Dreamweaver wants me to specify different file locations for various "includes" depending on whether I want to view the site as a preview (F12) vs. on a local test server vs. on the real website server. Note I am using Dreamweaver CS4 (ver. 10) on Windows, my local test server is Apache running via an Xampp installation on Windows, and my production server is also Apache, running at Hostgator. I am building a fairly basic html site using SSI via SHTML files, rather than PHP or a more sophisticated method. Here is what seems to be happening:
1. In my index.shtml file I call, for example, a subheader file called "header-nosub-menu.inc.htm." I have my site definitions set to "relative to document root." Using the insert -> SSI command, Dreamweaver links to the file with the following: My first problem is that, as specified, the subheader.menu.inc.htm file is not found and the preview gives me an error. I get the same error if i try to display the file on my local test server (http://localhost/domainname). However, if I upload the file to my production server, it seems to work fine. If I change the include command to: #include virtual="./includes/subheader.menu.inc.htm," by manually inserting the "./" to change the directory reference, then the file seems to work in all three situations Which is the correct directory specification, and why is Dreamweaver not generating it automatically?
While I can make the manual changes in the directory specifications, I am concerned that if Dreamweaver is making an error in this instance, it may generate more serious problems that are harder to find later.
2. The second issue seems to involve the Site Definition file configuration.I get an error message when I set up my site definition in what seems to be the correct way, specifically, using the following specifications:
Local Root folder: "C:\htdocs\domainname-dev\"
http address: "http://www.domainname/"
testing server folder: "C:\htdocs\domainname-dev"
url prefix: "http://localhost/domainname-dev"
The error message is: "The site url prefix for the testing server does not match the site url prefix specified in the http address for the site."
However, when I change the testing server url prefix to one that does not yield an error message ("http://localhost") I then have problems with the preview (F12) display. Specifically, instead of a preview request generating the following url: "http://localhost/domainname-dev/TMPm393xnclqu.shtml" I find that it generates the following: "http://localhost/TMPm393xnclqu.shtml" The so called incorrect definition seems to be the correct one, but why is Dreamweaver not recognizing it as such? Am I making a error somewhere else in my configuration?
I would appreciate any assistance that anyone here can provide,
Thanks,
http://localhost/

except for the Apache virtual host configuration, which I do not see a need for
I wasn't suggesting that you use virtual hosts (although I have defined about 50 virtual hosts on my own development machine). I was trying to understand the url you listed:
http://www.domainname/
Without a virtual host definition, that would have no meaning and could not point to anything, unless you simply were leaving off the TLD in the example. (.com, .net, etc)
I often use the PHP $_SERVER superglobal to define paths and handle differences between the development environment and the remote server environment. Examples:
DOCUMENT_ROOT: D:/ZendServer/Apache2/htdocs/website/ranch (machine path)
REQUEST_URI: /topic/calendar (url parameters)
SCRIPT_NAME: index.php
HTTP_REFERER: (the url of the script preceding the current script)
HTTP_HOST: (this is the domain name. It is very useful for distinguishing between the local and remote environments)
COMPLETE EXAMPLE:
echo "<a class='noPrint' href='".$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']."'>RETURN TO PREVIOUS PAGE</a>";

Dreamweaver CS4 - Site pages disappearing

I have been using Dreamweaver CS4 since it first came out and I've created and maintain over 75 sites on the same hosting service, I also have created and maintain many sites on other hosting services. I just started having a very strange problem. This problem has happened with one site that is hosted with my hosting service (Inmotion Hosting) and one site that is hosted elsewhere. Here is what happened today (this is the site that is NOT hosted with my current hosting company)
I started working on this site last week - all was going fine - simply making some changes to site text and adding new site titles and meta descriptions.
I worked on it yesterday and uploaded a couple of pages - all went fine.
I opened the site today (before I even opened Dreamweaver) and went to the site using the url - home page opened fine - I clicked on the "About Us" page and I got the following error message (just to be clear - this is the same thing that happend last week with a different site):
Not Found
The requested URL /contact_request.html was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I opened Dreamweaver and looked at the Local / Remote view page and the page I was tring to access was showing on both the Local and Remote sides - this was NOT a page that I worked on yesterday.
I went to Google to try and see if I could find a reason why this would happen, I found one suggestion that I try to Google the site and the page name that I was trying to access and click on that link.
I did that and it worked - I also pressed Ctrl-F5 several times to make sure that I was not accessing a cached version of the page.
I went into Dreamweaver, made a couple of changes to the page, uploaded it and it worked fine.
I tried a few other pages in the site and found that most pages were coming up fine, some pages would give me that same "Not Found" error.
I closed the site, closed FireFox, shut down my computer, restarted everything and tried again - same problem - sometimes some of the pages will just give me a "Not Found" error - not always the same page.
If I go to Google and search the site and then click on that link - the page will open fine.
I tried contacting my hosting company and they told me that it must be a Dreamweaver syncronization issue.
Does anyone have any ideas??

These links are all 404 not found.

Manage Sites - All my existing Sites have disappeared..?

I have recently recovered form a hard drive crash and set up a new home directory.
When I open the <Manage Sites> dialog box in Dreamweaver CS4 all of my existing sites have disappeared and the list is empty.'
If I track the path in Finder <username/library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS4/en-US/configuration.SiteCache> I can see that all of the sites are still listed in folders there.
Is there a way to redirect Dreamweaver to see these existing sites?
If not, can someone suggest the best way to recover from this/
Thanks

Correct - in order to keep those that are currently on the iPad they need to stay checked, and additional albums that you check will be added to those that are already on the iPad. Synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, they can only be deleted by un-checking/de-selecting them on that tab.

Launch Dreamweaver CS4 and open a specific site

One of my stumbling blocks in moving from GoLive 9 to Dreamweaver CS4 is finding a way to have Dreamweaver open a specific site at launch time. GoLive has a "name.site" file that contains site-specific information. Double-clicking that GoLive site file launches GoLive (or switches to the running application) and makes that site the current/frontmost site.
With Dreamweaver, I can double-click a page in a site and launch Dreamweaver. However, Dreamweaver's active site is the one that was active at the end of the last Dreamweaver session.
Is there a way to launch Dreamweaver and have it automatically open a specific site?
-- Barney

Say, if they do something like that for the already existing .ste files, then it might just encourage some people to export/backup their site definitions. Although I would probably never think to doubleclick one of them, that is still a good idea.

Change SSID name in Guest Manager Receipt

Requirement:
To use the same Guest manager receipt in different sites for different SSIDs' with a single guest self-registration page.
Solution:
Every guest self-registration page is mapped to a guest manager receipt. The default guest-Manager receipt takes the SSID value from Configuration --> Guest Manager --> Receipt Options --> Site SSID name. Since, we can define only one SSID name in Guest Manager configuration, it is not possible to use one guest manager receipt for two different SSIDs' (in different sites).
We have to create a new guest-manager receipt and hardcode the guest SSID name for the respective site and link it to a newly created self-registration page.
Configuration:
I. Login to ClearPass Guest. Navigate to Configuration--> Receipts --> Templates. Click on the default GuestManager receipt template and click duplicate. A copy of Guest Manager receipt will be created. Highlight the copy and click on edit.
There are two places where we have to change the guest SSID name in the receipt.
1. WiFi Network Name (at the beginning of the receipt) &
2. Connect to the wireless network (Step: 2 under Guest account and Wi-Fi Instructions).
1. To change WiFi Network Name, scroll down to the User-Account HTML and search for line that starts with "WiFi Network".
We could see the below default code:
<h3 style="font-family:{$g_email_font_family|escape};font-size:20px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;color:#{$g_email_network_text|escape};margin:0;padding:0;">
 WiFi Network: {$site_ssid|escape}
 </h3>
Replace the highlighted text in the above code with the guest SSID name as required. In the below example, I've used the guest SSID name as "Test".
<h3 style="font-family:{$g_email_font_family|escape};font-size:20px;line-height:20px;font-weight:bold;color:#{$g_email_network_text|escape};margin:0;padding:0;">
 WiFi Network: Test
2. To change the SSID name under Guest account and Wi-Fi instructions, scroll down to the User-Account HTML and search for line that starts with "Connect to the wireless network".
We could see the below default code:
<li{$smarty.capture.li_1}>
 <img src="images/bullet_{counter}.gif" width="26" height="20" style="margin-bottom:-4px;" />Connect to the wireless network: {$site_ssid|escape}
 </li>
Replace the highlighted text in the above code with the guest SSID name as required. In the below example, I've used the guest SSID name as "Test".
<li{$smarty.capture.li_1}>
 <img src="images/bullet_{counter}.gif" width="26" height="20" style="margin-bottom:-4px;" />Connect to the wireless network: Test
 </li>
After the above change, click 'save changes' at the bottom.
II. a. Navigate to Configuration --> Pages --> Guest self-registration to create a new self registration page. If we plan to use same guest self-registration page, highlight the existing page and click on Duplicate. Select "Same as Original" for Parent radio button so that newly created form fields will be independent of the existing form fields. We can also use "Create a new self-registration form" hyperlink if we do not want to duplicate the existing page.
b. After creating a new self registration page, highlight and click on Edit and click on "Advanced Editor". Navigate to Email delivery section. For the option, 'Email receipt' choose the newly created guest manager receipt from the drop down.
After the above changes, click 'save changes' at the bottom.
Verification
1. Configuration --> Guest Manager that shows default value "Aruba" for SSID name under receipt options:
2. Copy of the guest manager receipt template that shows modified SSID name:
3. Duplicate of the default guest self-registration page:
4. Email Delivery section:

The only way I have found to change the device name in Profile Manager is to change it on the device itself, then wait for the updated info to reach PM.
The option to "set the computer name to computer record name" will set the computer name to the name of a computer record that matches in Open Directory (based on MAC). This option would allow you to change the device name in Profile Manager in a round about way... change the computer record name in OD, wait for the change to make it's way to the computer, then back up to the Profile Manager. In my experience, this doesn't take too long.

Problems to Download Dreamweaver CS4 with Akamai Download Manager!

I want to download Dreamweaver CS4 Italian Windows Trial version.
I have Internet Explorer 7, PC with OS Windows XP x64bit Corporate, Core2Quad Q9650, Motherboard MSI P45Platinum with Ethernet 10/100/1000,
4GBRAM,3 HDD 500GB WesternDigital,Nvidia GeForce 9400GT.
I have installed "Akamai Download Manager ActiveX" control asked on the top of window popup.
Clicked Yes:Installation confirmation.
But I have tried to click the button "Download" and just one window with this message appears and disappears immediately:
Per scaricare il software è necessario installare Akamai Download Manager...
Problemi di download?
Assistenza per il download...
Il sistema non dispone dei requisiti minimi per eseguire Akamai Download Manager.
(The system doesn't meets the minimum system requirements to run Akamai Download Manager.)
I can't download anything. Why?
I have disable Pop-ups Blocker, and disabled also Anti-Phishing Filter.
Disabled also Antivirus and the Firewall.
Set and lowered Security Protection from Tools>Internet Options: to "Medium"; and also, another time, set to "Personalized" with all the controls
switched to "Active".
Set Privacy>Settings>"Accetta tutti i cookie"(lowered to full bottom).
I have read this Akamai Download Manager FAQ:
-"Nothing happens when I click the download link"
If nothing happened after you clicked the download link, either your pop-up blocker or a high security setting on your web browser may have stopped
the Akamai DLM window from opening.
If you have a pop-up blocker enabled in your web browser or in your Internet toolbar (such as the Yahoo! toolbar or the Google toolbar), you will
need to disable your pop-up blocker to start your download. For additional information, and for instructions on changing your security setting, see
the "Akamai Download Manager system requirements" (ServiceNote kb400530).
Note: The download manager can sometimes take up to a minute to load. Please allow time for the initial loading before assuming there is a problem
Thus, I have followed this rules in Akamai Download Manager System Requirements:
Internet Explorer 7
1) Access your Internet options from the Windows Control Panel (Internet Options) or by selecting Tools > Internet Options in Internet Explorer
2) Select the Security Tab
3) Click Custom Level
4) Scroll through the list of security options and set:
-ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Download signed ActiveX controls > Enable or Prompt
-ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Enable or Prompt
-ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting > Enable or Prompt
-Downloads > File download > Enable
-Miscellaneous > Allow script-initiated windows without size or position constraints > Enable
-Scripting > Active scripting > Enable
5) Click OK
6) Click OK again
But nothing changes.
On my PC I have also this installation: "J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5" and "Java(TM)6 Update 15".
But the download doesn't start at all.
1) How can I do to download Dreamweaver CS4-Windows-ITALIAN language?
2) Is it possible to download 364.8 MegaBytes without Akamai Download Manager?
Please Hurry!
Horsepower0171.

another option you may have is resettofactory
start- run- type:
cmd
press enter
type:
cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
press enter
type:
loader.exe /resettofactory
press enter
please perform a backup first
test your browser before you restore your backup, and to be ssafe I would do a selective restore
open DTM, go to backup/restore- advanced
top left click on file-open
find your backup, it will load on the left side
you current working BB will be on the right side
transfer ONLY the absolute important databases from the left to the right(address, cal, phone logs, messages, sms, tasks, memo)... dont do any that you dont know and dont do any OPTIONS ones

Dreamweaver CS4- I can't get my site to display the proper image.

I have a Dreamweaver CS4 Template with an editable area for a header image. I have already assigned a new image to all the header regions but when I moved the site to the web host the pages will only display the Default header image from the template in the editable region, even though when I check the file name in the Modify Templates window it displays the proper name, but displays the wrong image.
What is wrong? any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.

Did you upload the new header image?
This one is currently being displayed.

Edit Existing Site With Dreamweaver

Im sure this question has been asked 100 times but how do I edit an existing site (published and on the web) with Dreamweaver CS5.5? I took over as webmaster last month at a company and would like to edit the companys website. How do I download the files off the web? I can do it with Contribute but not Dreamweaver.

Create a local site folder in DW. Site > Manage Sites > New.
Go to Advanced > Remote info and enter your log in-details (FTP, host URL, username, password).
Test connection to server.
Then GET files from server.

Presentation Layer column name change effects on existing reports ?

Hello Gurus,
I have one requirement where user are not sure about the column names in Presentation Layer.
so they want us to create the reports and once the reports are delivered they will give us the column name as per their requirement.
now i read couple of blogs related to this, that does it affects the exiting reports?
in couple of blogs they says that i won't. becaus BI server creates the alias for the old name and will reflects it wherever it's used in reports..
So can anyone tell me where this alias name has been stored in OBIEE?
and is there any precaution that needs to be done while doing this beacuse we are expecting to create around 40-50 reports and changing the column name after changing the presentation layer name change will increase lots of work..
Thanking You..

I've confirmed it on a 10g environment that when you rename the column in the RPD the existing reports reflect the change.
What I was referring to in the statement you highlight is that a column name can be changed when being used as the definition of a report. If somebody specifies an abbreviation of the current name to fit it in a table or chart then it will not be updated from a name change in the RPD.
So long as you build reports using the name provided by the RPD and none of the developers take the liberty of renaming it in the column properties of the request/analyses the single rename should take effect through all the reports you build.
You can also manage the column name by renaming it in a report and using the save as system wide default. But the way you intend to do it would be the best method.

Office 365/Share point one Drive site name change ?

We use Office 365 and the One drive in our organization and ADFS setup to sync users from Active Directory to create and manage users in 365. A problem we've discovered is that when a users name changes (married) I can change it in AD and that will
show in 365 but the users sharepoint site to one drive still shows the original name so for example if jsmith changed to jjones the original sharepoint onedrive site is
https://crdistrict-my.sharepoint.com/personal/jsmith_OURDOMAIN/_layouts/15/start.aspx#/Documents/Forms/All.aspx
and the new one should be
https://crdistrict-my.sharepoint.com/personal/jjones_OURDOMAIN/_layouts/15/start.aspx#/Documents/Forms/All.aspx
I found in the Admin console under sharepoint settings etc places to update the user to the new name and I make the change and hit save and close and in a few min its back to the original. It won't let me change it. Anyone else run across this
Jason

Hi,
I understand that you stay in the Office 365 admin Center, when you click the SharePoint option, you get the error page.
I recommend to enter the URL as below in the Brower to check whether the account can access SharePoint admin Center.

Adobe download manager and Dreamweaver CS4

Hi everyone,
I'm new to Adobe and new to web site design and development.
I'm in the process of trying out Dreamweaver CS4 but during the free trial download, I'm contantly asked to download/buy Adobe download manager.
Do I need to have this application even when I buy the boxed retail full version?
Any help/advice much appreciated.
Thanks.
Marilyn

You don't need Adobe Download manager. The service it provides is useful if you have a slow connection that is likely to drop the connection mid download. Download manager resumes the download where it left off so "theoretically" you don't have to start over. This is not 100% reliable however, but gives you a better shot at it. If you have a good stable connection you don't really need it, and of course if you buy the boxed version you don't need it at all.

Why a simple php syntax checker extension doesn't exist yet for Dreamweaver CS4 ?

Hello,
my request is in the subject ;-)
I remember a very useful extension in Golive CS8/9 that did exactly that :
Duplicate from DW the currently edited php/html page to a temp file
Send the temp file to the command line : "/path/to/php -l /path/to/temp/file"
Display the command output ("syntax ok" or "error on line ##") directly INSIDE dreamweaver
It required only that an apache/php package was installed on the developer's computer (using whater Xampp, or Wamp, etc.)
Though you might say to me that I should use a PHP IDE wich is dedicated specifically to that goal, I wonder why a such extension does not exist... as it is a great time saver when rapid syntax checking is required before uploading...
I may be wrong but i can't find anything close to that via google / adobe studio exchange search results...
Should I start to learn the dreamweaver CS4 API extension documention or someone can give me a hint to achieve that ?
Thanks everyone.

Hi M.Zografski
I have tried to clear that cache the only thing I keep running into is that the file that is listed doesn't even match the way my dreamweaver loaded onto my computer. I get up to the point of the Adobe file then my next one is shown as Adobe Dreamweaver CS4- I choose this and then there is no file in there showing the language at all. I have a file listed as %AppData% and if I choose this one then it shows Thinstall file and this opens into Adobe AIR- then this has some registry files and another fold as %drive_C% which opens to Adobe then to Dreamweaver then to en_US then Configuration which does contain a file RDSINFO and it appears to be empty. This seems very round about to getting to the cache file and I was unsure of whether or not this was what I was indeed looking for. Also if I try to search for this WinFileCache with that file name I get no results.
Why is this being so stubborn. I am thinking if I could locate the file then it would all go well
Thanks
Teresa
