Dreamweaver cs4 fireworks cs6 cannot edit between

Hello in Adobe Land.
I have been using DW CS4 with Fireworks CS4 for some years...no problem.
Recently upgraded to Fireworks CS6, still using DW CS4.
Changed preferences in Dreamweaver ... for jpg, png, etc to FW CS6.
One or two of the images in DW will switch to Fireworks, others will not.
I can swith to Fireworks by right clicking, but it is not really efficent compared to what I had with CS 4.
If anyone with greater understanding of these programmes couldadvise how to improve the situation, it would be greatly appreciated.
Help this pensioner in stress.
Regards from sunny Spain.

Further to the above.... which is now solved .....
In case any other unfortunate non techie should experience it.......
When you upgrade, some of your prefernces follow you.... this being one of them.
The thing to do is to remove the exisiting and replace everything in the right hand column.
The fact that the browse button above indicates where you really want to edit, the names below are the edit locations it goes to.

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?

None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We have double checked all of them and we have everything exactly right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Could there must be factor in 6 that didn't exist in 4? Something that isnt in the SiteSetup but in some hidden dialog box ?
I can also upload to my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And as I said DW CS4 works fine. So the problem is not with my host, its with DW CS6 in particular.

Thank you Jon, that fixed it perfectly. You have saved me from going crazy. The only difference I see now is in "Server Name" it changed what I had entered (my ftp address) to "Remote Server"; which seems odd -- but it works! Although I know there maybe also some other dialog box I have never seen
Of course I saw that menu item "Import" and but I thought thats obviously not for me: "Why would I want to import an entire website?". I did not however see "Export the selected site" for thats only a tiny icon in the footer. However I would have thought the same: "Why would I want to export my entire website?".
An observation: I've seen this problem in a lot of Adobe software, the menu-names of items are obscure, non descriptive. What would be better would be for the menu names or popups to say "Export Site Setup settings" and "Import Site Setup settings"

Installing Fireworks CS6 Turkish Edition on English OS

Hi,
I want to purchase Fireworks CS6 Turkish Edition but I have a question about this. My OS language is English. Do you know if I encounter with a problem when I install it?
In additon, why is Turkish Edition cheaper than English one?
Thank you in advance.

Can I upgrade dreamweaver cs4 to cs6

Can my Dreamweaver
cs4 be upgraded to Dreamweaver cs6

You do qualify for 40% off your first year subscription price as a prior owner of the Creative Suite...
Creative Cloud free trial & plans : Adobe Creative Cloud
DWCS6 was available as a stand alone one time purchase for $299 USD and slightly less for DWCS5.5 owners, but it looks like they no longer offer it, all references to it have been scrubbed from the online store within the last week.

Fireworks CS6 not editing .fw files

Hello, My friend made 2 templates and send their editable PNG that is .fw file to me, After he send me that templates he deleted them by mistake, now I'm only able to open and edit only one of them and second one is not editable, Its in PNG format but not editable!
Please tell me whats wrong and kindly tell me any way to edit the second file
I Can also provide you the template which is haveing problems

He probably saved one as a flattened png only. You will have to rebuild it. Try copying sections to new layers, and redraw others.

CS6 - Cannot Edit Some Character Styles

Hi, using Creative Cloud, have latest updates. Noticed some character styles will not allow editing, and some will. These are styles originally created by using the "Create new style" icon at the bottom of the panel.
For the ones that won't, neither double-clicking just to the left of the style name (double-clicking on the name itself allows renaming), nor selecting "Character Style Options..." in the panel preferences drop-down works.
Anyone else had this problem? Thanks!

Dreamweaver and Fireworks won't run at the same time

Recently, I've run into a problem where I cannot run Dreamweaver and Fireworks at the same time.
I have Dreamweaver CS4 & Fireworks CS4, which I can still run at the same time.
However when I run Dreamweaver CS5.5 and try to launch Fireworks CS5.1 I get a C++ Runtime error in FW CS5.1.
And when I run Dreamweaver CS6 and try to launch Fireworks CS6, Fireworks CS6 freezes before fully loading.
If I run DW CS6 and launch FW CS4, I can get them both to run together, but when I close FW4, DW CS6 crashes.
Any suggestions would most appreciated.
David

Historically, I've always kept prior versions installed because sometimes, albeit infrequently, I need to access extensions that aren't compatible with the newer versions of CS. Since I can run DW & Fireworks CS4 together, I'm inclined to leave them installed.
I've thought about uninstalling CS 5, but I don't think that would resolved my issue. I've already tried most of what's in the Adobe troubleshooting suggestions save for creating a new administrator account.
I think I'll hobble along with my current workarounds since I'll be migrating to a new computer very soon, which should acomplish what creating a new administrator account would. I'll probably limit the reinstall to CS 6 to eliminate any issues that might be related to having multiple versions installed, which in reality shouldn't be an issue because again, I've always done that successfully in the past.
Thanks for the suggestion just the same.

Dreamweaver CS4 and Coldfusion 8 - help on configuration

Hi Guys,
I'm not a Coldfusion user and I cant find anything from the support docs. I hope you can shed some light on my issue. I really need some help on this.
Here's my set up:
Dreamweaver CS4/CS3 installed on a Win XP Pro SP2 machine
Coldfusion 8 installed on Windows 2003 server (http://[servername]:8500). IIS is also running on the server.(http://[servername])(Testing Server)
Coldfusion 8 is located in C:\Coldfusion
wwwroot = C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot
Coldfusion is on Trial mode right now. Installed as a self-contained server (first radio button in installation)
Built in webserver was selected also during the installation
RDS Password enabled
Issue:
When I define a site in Dreamweaver CS4/CS3, I cannot connect to the Coldfusion part of the testing server.
I tried both Local/Network and FTP but I can't connect.
Here's the sample information the i put in the site definition of Dreamweaver under the Advanced Tab.
1st example:
Category: Testing Server
Access: FTP
FTP Host: [servername]:8500
Host Directory: /test
username: [username]
password: [password]
URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/test
** I tried checking and unchecking the checkboxes under password
Error: FTP Error Occured
2nd example:
Category: Testing Server
Access: Local/Network
Testing Server Folder: [servername]:8500\test
URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/test
Here's the interesting part on this setup. When I go to the Basic tab to test the connection for the testing server, I get this message, "[servername]:8500\temp.html contains an invalid path". After I hit OK, "The URL Prefix test was successful." message appears
My Questions:
what's wrong with my setup? Is my prefix correct?
what else do i need to configure?
is Coldfusion conflicting with the IIS on my server? Should I configure Coldfusion to work with IIS rather than setting it up as a built in webserver?
What questions do I need to ask? XD
I hope someone can help me on this or guide me to the right path. I can access the files when type http://servername:8500 on the browser though.
Help please? Thanks in advance!
-dis

Port 8500 is the port the built in web server is listing to to respond to client requests. To view ColdFusion code on the server you would put http://servername:8500/myCFMLfile.cfm in a browser.
To have your Dreamweaver help you write these files you just need to tell it how you want to connect to servername.
For FTP you would need FTP enabled on servername and be able to FTP to c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\ on servername. Then you would set up something like this in Dreamweaver
FTP HOST: servername
Host Directory: ???
(depends on what your FTP root is for the FTP server on servername and how it relates to c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\
username: ...
password: ...
URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/
(What you would put into the URL of a browser.)
For Local/Network you just write the file to the c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\ directory on servername. This assumes that this directory is shared and available to users over the network. Which it probably is by the little known drive hidden share default on most windows systems.
Access: local/network
Testing Server Folder: \\servername\c$\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\
(Or other UNC path to the desired network folder)
URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/
(Still what you put into the URL of a browser)

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.

When you export the sliced graphics from Fireworks it places
them into a
table. In my instance the code says...

So it recognises Fireworks was the the graphics app and jumps
back to it
when you want to edit the image. Fireworks then displays (or
should) a
Done¹ button over the window. You do your alts and
press Done to update the
HTML and graphics back in Dreamweaver automatically.
That¹s the only table I was referring to Murray.

Fireworks CS4 to CS6 - is there a setting that needs to be adjusted so that web pages look right in

Fireworks CS4 to CS6 - is there a setting that needs to be adjusted so that web pages look right in Internet Explorer? I was in the middle of creating pages with Fireworks CS4 and exporting them to Dreamweaver CS4 and publishing them to the website. Those pages looked fine. Then I upgraded to CS6 and the pages look fine in Fireworks, Dreamweaver and when I preview them "live" in Chrome but not Internet Explorer. Anyone know why? Also, with upgrading the software I upgraded to a new computer. Any and all suggestions are welcomed. Thanks!

Most likely caused by a missing document type declaration (DTD). Truth is, the HTML code generated by graphics apps is not web worthy. It's really only intended for quick mock-ups to show a client before you rebuild everything with CSS & HTML code in Dreamweaver.
This 3-part tutorial describes how to take your Design from Fireworks or Photoshop to a CSS Layout in Dreamweaver.

Problem editing labels of radio button symbols in Fireworks CS6

Hi,
I'm new to Fireworks, and I am struggling with symbols. I have encountered several problems creating reusable symbols and especially editing the labels.
Problem 1
I can't edit the label of a symbol that I create using a default Common Library symbol as a starting point. Here's how to reproduce:
- Open a default symbol, say RadioButton(win) for editing
- Do changes (font for example)
- Save as a new symbol in the Common Library folder
- Use the new symbol in a new document
- Editing the label in symbol instance properties does not work
Continuing with a rather irrelevant use case just trying to understand what is going on:
- Add a default symbol RadioButton(win) from the Common Library to the same document
- Now try editing the label of the new symbol (added to the document above)
- The label (and other properties) of the default symbol are edited instead
Problem 2
Why can I not enter a number as a label of the RadioButton(win) symbol, found in the Common Library? The workaround is simple though, I can just enter a number followed by a space.
Problem 3
How to create a set of a heading and three radio buttons as a symbol? If I simply convert three RadioButton(win) symbols and a text element to a new symbol, I lose the possibility to edit the labels of the radion buttons. The properties show that the radio buttons have labels from the time before converting to a new symbol, but in the new symbol the radio button elements have labels that say "label", and I cannot edit them.
What is the best way to create radio buttons, check boxes, combo boxes and other symbols with custom look and feel, while retaining all the functionality of the symbols?
Thank you,
Teemu

How do I transfer or access my personal dictionary from Dreamweaver CS4 to CC CS6

I have spent years building up a personal medical dictionary in Dreamweaver CS4 and have recently updated to Creative Cloud team CS6 (and about to update again) but I can't seem to get my new version to recognise my personal dictionary (it was created via: 'Command/Check Spelling/Add to Personal)

Locate the "Personal Dictionary MX.tlx" file on your computer. You can search hidden files and folders to find this file, or browse to the directory.
Windows Vista and Windows 7:Users\[your login]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\Common.
Windows XP:Documents and Settings\[your login]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\Common.
Mac OS X: the path is Macintosh HD:Users:[your login]:Library:Application Support:Adobe:Dreamweaver CS4:Common
1.Launch Dreamweaver CS6 and see what language you have the dictionary set to . Edit > Preferences > General > Spelling Dictionary > Take note of what it is set to.
2. Navigate to C:\Users\UsernameAppData\LocalLow\Adobe\Linguistics\UserDictionaries\Adobe Custom Dictionary\{locale}\added.txt
Paste the contents from the "Personal Dictionary MX.tlx" to "added.txt"

Cannot open Dreamweaver CS4 in Mac OS 10.9.4

When I try to open my copy of Dreamweaver CS4 on my iMac with OS 10.9.4 I get the following alert:
Licensing for this product has stopped working.
This product has has (sic) encountered a problem which requires
that you restart your computer before it can be launched.
If you continue to see this message after restarting your
computer, please contact either your IT administrator or Adobe
technical support for help, and mention the error code shown
at the bottom of this screen.
Error: 150:30
I contacted tech support and they said that my Dreamweaver was too old for them to offer support
and that I should try the Forums.
Help! I just need to correct one small bit of text, and I cannot see buying a newer version to do such a small thing.

That is not the same situation. I had the same error today after restoring a Time Machine backup on a new drive. I'm using Os 10.8.5 and CS4 worked just fine with it before the restoration. Here is some help...which so far hasn't worked for me, but it might work for you. ;-)

Editing text in Dreamweaver CS4 on Mac 10.6.2 causes paragraph ends to disapear

Editing text in Dreamweaver CS4 on Mac 10.6.2 causes paragraph ends to disappear.
When adding bold in design view (strong) to two words at the start of my paragraph the last line of the paragraph disappears. This is somewhat worrying as it means any editing I do in dreamweaver could do massive amounts of damage to the content.
We are pasting the original content into the code view so as to strip the formating Dreamweaver then decides to take the last line break in the source code paragraph and then delete it see example below:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aenean dignissim nisi id risus varius ut scelerisque massa consectetur. Vestibulum non tortor augue, sit amet dictum lacus. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Curabitur ultrices felis et dui tincidunt sit amet tristique est pulvinar. Nulla a lectus quis erat ornare ultricies. Sed ac elementum magna. Nulla aliquet accumsan nulla. In dictum accumsan tortor eget consequat. Suspendisse potenti. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc et orci eu augue condimentum sodales quis id mauris. Nam enim nisi, convallis eu volutpat non, malesuada quis nulla. Sed auctor nulla et tellus vehicula lacinia interdum odio lobortis vehicula lacinia interdum odio.
So when applying Strong with the Bold button in the design view to the first words 'Lorem ipsum' the last part of the paragraph 'lobortis vehicula lacinia interdum odio' will be deleted. Bizare and very dangerous especially for Annual Report content.
Any experience of similar or solutions would be greatly received.
PS. I have restarted, repaired permissions, checked dreamweaver is up to date trashed plist's and removed duplicate fonts.

It could be a problem in the templates.
In all honesty, I just tried pasting text into the Design section of a page.
It doesn't even work on my Mac, and it took three tries to get it to actually paste in VIsta.
I had to go to the code and reformat it after it did paste, but it eventually went.
I don't work with templates much.
Well, that actually makes me feel a little better, if it makes sense to feel better to learn that it could be the expensive software and not just us. I guess I will view this as an opportunity to improve me coding speed :-) Thanks for the feedback.
