Dreamweaver Freeze fix

I have had Dreamweaver cs6 lock up for 10-15 seconds every time I go to another program window and back.
Tried to impliment the fix here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/hang-opening-document-dreamweaver-cs5.html
but when I go to user/username/library I cannot see the library folder or locate the CS6 Prefs file anywhere on my Windows 7 computer.
Anyone got any ideas?
thanks

Sounds like you are accidentally following the Mac instructions.

Dreamweaver freezes on design view

I am having issues with dreamweaver freezing in design view. when i click on design view, it crashes, and i have to restart. i have tried multiple installs, as well as uncheck "display external files". what else could be the issue? is there a new update for it that may fix this?

I wish I had the answer to that question myself. I just purchased Dreamweaver 6 this morning. The program is freezing upon opening any document. If I wait long enough,, it un-freezes just long enough to start working on the file. Then in less than a minute it freezes yet again. I have not been able to find any help regarding this situation. I have tried every single suggestion that I could find,, but nothing seems to work.

Dreamweaver freezes - EasyRotator?

Dreamweaver freezes - It has been working fine until yesterday. It opens up fine until an HTML file opens and the HTML Corrections starts correcting invalid HTML code closing <img> tags. It freezes after the 3rd HTML correction. I downloaded the Dreamweaver 11.0.4 update, and reinstalled Dreamweaver but the problem still persists? The last thing I did on this page was to Insert an EasyRotator image extension on this page. Could this be part of the problem?
What else can I do?
Thanks,

Use the on-line validation tools to check the code in your problem page and fix any reported errors.
When everything checks out, then use File > SaveAs old file name.

Dreamweaver freezing

I'm having a problem with Drewamweaver (CS3). Everything appears to be working fine until I try to open a page to edit. The page will not open, hovering over the work area brings up a timer and Dreamweaver freezes and has to be shut down. I've re-installed CS3, to no avail. As I wasn't asked to re-key the seial number and the re-installed software immediately recognised all the web sites and their FTP's and passwords, I assume it wasn't completely un-installed meaning any bugs may still have been there.
I have CS3 installed on my laptop so I transferred the files across. I was able to open pages from a couple of older web sites, however as soon as I tried to open a page from my most recent site, it froze again, and won't let me open any pages from any sites. The assumption must be that the problem lies with the new site or something in it. Any ideas how to track the problem and deal with it?
Thanks,
Ian MacLeod

Dreamweaver Freezes when I use the query mobile swatch panel

Every time I open and use the jquery mobile swatch panel, dreamweaver freezes and stops working. I have to force it to close. This problem started when I upgraded to CC 2 days ago... never with CS6.
Any help or suggestions would be great.
Thanks.

Ok, I don't have a crash report and all, but I have reported my issue in reports to Adobe.
Adobe CS5 Mac OS 10.6.7 iMac (Intel) 2010
Happened several times since I use this effect quite a bit.
I have a block of area text with a placed .psd photo which has possibly a clipping path (or not) and a separate stroke box for a border, grouped together and then a drop shadow applied. Then select both group and text block and apply text warp. Then select just the photo group and try to nudge it by using the arrow keys on my Apple factory shipped keyboard.
Usually hit the arrow key 3 to 4 times before I realize that I get the spinning wheel of death and finally crash.
Can anyone duplicate this?

Dreamweaver Freezing & Crashing Constantly

HI,
OK before I start Dreamweaver 12.1 & latest Mountain Lion. I have two main isue probably related.
I am creating an HTML 5/PHP Administration interface and prior to converting to PHP I am using JQuery Scripts to simulate the interface for my client. The pages uses lets say 30+ jQuery Scripts many by Flot Charts for example and 10+ style sheets however when I try to load any of the mockup pages Dreamweaver takes an age to open in Source view and totally freezes in Design Mode. On opening the very same pages in Zend Studio it take 3 seconds.
I have also noticed that if I am working on a site and throw a page into Dreamweaver from outside the site ie from the desktop it again Crashes.
I have hardly ever had issues with Dreamweaver until now however this is real annoying that sites constantly crash and it cannot cope with pages using 30+ scripts.
Would this be the same if I start pulling in Drupal or Magento sites to work on??
My question is therefore does Dreamweaver use some sort of caching that can be turned off or what else could be the issue here as no upgrades either Apple or Adobe have addressed any of these issues.. As I say Zend can open the pages in seconds yet Dreamweaver a design/code IDE cannot

Jon,
Yes I have tried commenting out and nothing so far and when I have some time this weekend I'll do this on a scipt by script basis to find the offending item. I'm thinking one of the autoloading/preloading functions may be the cause..
The Apple/Adobe support issue is first hand. Adobe almost certainly will blame this on a M/Lion issue and Apple will no doubt reply with Adobe or we dont support Java anymore. M/Lion has played havock with Quark also. CS6 suite definately has some pretty big issues though on M/Lion Dreamweaver especially and all crash reports get sent on to Apple prety much on a daily basis. I have also worked on Adobe products from beta to realease with a testing company perviously and releasing products with hundreds of unironed bugs is par for the course probably with all software houses I guess. The funniest was a Spanish localsation of Photoshop 5 or 6 released with the save option disabled oops. Quickly fixed that they did!!!
I take it you have not used Edge yet. 1 small animation = 10 jQuery scripts

Did DreamWeaver CS5 fix the missing "Volumes" in local file paths for "Browse in-"?

I can't "Browse in Chrome", no matter what I do.
I tried:
Re-Installing Chrome. (It's a drag-drop operation. nothing to install )
Searched in Preferences for a value like the Opendiff to compare documents.
If you select "browse in Firefox" it works. I don't know whether it's Firefox fixing it's DreamWeaver sending the wrong path, but "Volumes" is there.
The problem probably only occurs in secondary partitions on the startup drive.
Apple has not replied about it but it could be Adobe's bug.
I honestly think the "Volumes" idea to access other partitions (not the startup's default) was introducint late, since other apps seem to have the same issue with non obvious operations (Compare Files Service, Apple OS)
Has it been fixed in CS5?
How can I fix it in CS4? I'd glad to hack files if I have to. Re-install is not an option, Com'on! Replace my whole teeth for one caries is not an answer. If the installer can fix it, whoever designed the installer knows what file is the corrupted one.
Thanks.

Dreamweaver Flash Fix, flash won't show now in localhost

I have MS IIS setup on my machine as a locahost to design
websites.
I have a page with 3 flash items within the page. Testing
with the code provided by Flash 8 the pages appear fine when viewed
through the browser in localhost.
As soon as I applied the flash fix through dreamweaver the
flash is now invisible when viewed using localhost but appear fine
when uploaded to the web. I need them to appear in localhost so I
can design the pages and judge the relation of the flash objects to
other elements. I don't want to use the old flash and have to
switch and I dont want to use placeholders, I just want the code to
work as supposed to.
Any ideas on why the flash would suddenly disappear when
viewing through on my local server?
Thanks
Neil

DreamWeaver Freezes Bad

Has anyone heard any thing about an update or patch or
something on the freezing of DreamWeaver CS3. I have read where
several people are having similar problems. I am really looking for
a solution it took me 10 minutes to change two words in code view
because of it freezing up. I even added more memory and still
nothing.

Sure you can.

Dreamweaver freezes every morning, console shows it's going through all my fonts?

I'm on a mac, 10.9.2, with Dreamweaver CC (whatever's the newest version). Every morning, after starting Dreamweaver, I get about a minute or two, then it freezes. When I check the console log, I can see that it's going through all my fonts. I could publish the log, but it's the same line over and over, just with different fontnames (and unfortunately I have maaaany fonts, though only a few of them are active):
CoreText performance note: Client called CTFontCreateWithName() using name "Futura Light" and got font with PostScript name "FuturaBT-Light". For best performance, only use PostScript names when calling this API.
I have to admit I don't know what this means, or what to do about this? The other CC apps don't do this, only Dreamweaver (which shouldn't need any fonts to begin with, except for a few standard font-stacks). Anyway, usually I force-quit Dreamweaver, and after that it works fine (as fine as Dreamweaver usually does, at least).
A note on the side – here at the bureau we use Extensis' Universal Type Client for font management.
Any help? Good ideas? Lucky guesses? ;-)
Thanks

We have checked out the issue & looks like DW starts scanning all the Extensis fonts at startup. We are investigating into it.
In the meantime it would be great if you can file a bug here. This will help us prioritize it based on the number of user requests.

Final Cut Pro 7 Mountain Lion Playback Freeze FIX

Hello,
I'm still running Final Cut Pro 7 on Mountain Lion, and I ran into a problem where the program would freeze whenver I tried to play in both the canvas and the viewer. I seem to have fixed it on my computer, and wanted to share my fix in case anyone else ran into the same problem. I tried deleting both Final Cut and Quicktime's preferences, but that didn't fix anything. Then, I happened to look at the console, and discovered the following message right around the time that it froze:
8/7/12 11:11:53.244 AM Final Cut Pro[702]: Address book access is denied for executable at path: /Applications/Final Cut Pro.app/Contents/MacOS/Final Cut Pro
I thought that was odd, since I don't see any reason that FCP would need access to my address book, but I decided to go check in System Preferences -> Security and Privacy -> Privacy -> Contacts. I discovered that FCP was already listed there, and the checkbox for "Allow these apps to access your contacts" was unchecked, so I decided to check it. And then it worked! It no longer froze during playback. I have no idea how that relates to playback, but it definitely fixed it for me, and so I hope that maybe this well help someone else who is having trouble.

I've seen this issue with my mac pro 2008:
While the programs still work fine, one fundamental change that Apple has made in Mountain Lion is to push more of the responsibility for displaying the image on the computer monitor to the GPU of the graphics card. Previously these responsibilities were shared with the CPU. Therefore, if you have an older graphics card (even if it is fully compatible with FCPX, as ours are), FCP6/7 has a difficult time playing back 1080 video in the Canvas window (at any size), without breaking up when there is some degree of movement in the video image.The screen cannot refresh quickly enough to draw the video image without showing horizontal banding and some minor digital garbage.

Dreamweaver freeze with developper toolbox

Hello,
I am following the steps in tutorial named "Building an Image Gallery using Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox ─ Part 1: Building the administrative section and displaying images". Posted on ADC at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/addt_image_gallery_pt1.html.
I cannot get past the first wizard: Insert Record Form. Dreaweaver freezes. I am new to development and have no clue. please help. Thanks.

Hi Pierre,
this might occur for various possible reasons, so I suggest to first see if your Dreamweaver installation is possibly suffering from the "Daylight Savings Time" bug, which is explained in this Adobe technote: http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402776

Dreamweaver Freeze JavaScript (F6) is disable! Why?

I will freeze JavaScript in my htm file in live view Dreamweaver but this command is disable.

@e1a1s,
Those options will be enabled only when you select "Hide Live View Displays".
Since the Element displays in Live View are also JS implementations, disabling or freezing Javascript before hiding them would have yielded undesirable results. Hence, this solution.
Hope this helps,

K8n Neo2 Plat Freezing - FIXED!!

Hello all, I'm hoping that you can help me. I've gotten some good advice on this board so far, but it hasn't fixed my problem.
My system stats are in my signature. I originally built this system with a single Raptor Hard Drive, only 2 sticks of ram, and no sound card (I was using the onboard sound). The system ran that way with no problems at all - it was rock solid.
About a month ago I added a second Raptor Hard Drive and set them both up as a bootable raid+0 array. I also added 2 more sticks of ram, making 4 sticks total for 2 gig. Finally, I added the X-Fi Extreme Music.
Ever since the changes I have been getting random "freezes" of the system - the mouse and keyboard stop responding, the screen freezes (I can tell what time the freeze occurred since the clock image is frozen in the corner) and the computer does not allow any inputs. Ctr-Alt-Del does nothing. The only way to recover is to hold the power button down for several seconds, turning the system off. At that point I can turn it back on and everything runs completely normally - no problems at all until the next freeze. The freeze can happen any time - it can take days, or happen (rarely) during windows startup.
What I have tried so far:
At first, my memory timings were off. The auto settings were using 3-3-3-7, when my memory wanted 3-3-3-8. I changed this, I also made sure it was running at DDR 333, and upped the voltage to the ram from 2.5 to 2.7 volts (Thanks for the help on all of this JayBee!!) So now, my memory is running at DDR 333, at the correct timing of 3-3-3-8, at voltage 2.7. Finally, I ran memtest86 for 18 hours (22 passes) and got zero errors. I am still freezing, so I'm pretty sure it's not my memory.
Before I tried working on the memory, I futzed around with the new sound card. I did disable the onboard sound in the bios (That's just setting AC97 Audio to [disabled], right?) I have also totally uninstalled the sound card and done a clean sweep of the drivers, and I have gotten freezes without it. So i'm pretty sure it's not my sound card.
Finally, I don't know how to test the raid setup, but I don't think that would cause freezing. Wouldn't that just cause the hard drives to stop responding? If I am missing something, let me know.
Oh, MSI support sent me the latest beta bios, ver. 1.C, and I have flashed that.
At this point I'm at a loss as to what to try next. I'm considering wiping the hard drives and doing a fresh install of XP. Is that worth a try? What do you all think?
Claudius

You did the right thing in the BIOS about disabling the sound.
The OS reload might be a good last resort, provided you've exhausted everone elses suggestions.
What I see you haven't tried is pulling the New Memory out. And returning the settings back to what you had. If the problems go away, then you know it's a memory issue, but more about timings or the way the controller and BIOS settings are dealing with your added ram. You could also try the new RAM alone too and see what happens.
If the problem continues even with putting almost everything back to the same way it was with exception to the new drive and the array. You may have introduced a new problem with adding the drive and more power consumption. However, since it's random (providing it really is random, and not when the system might be running too warm due to the added hardware and power draw) then it could be several things still. Heat generated in the case could lower power supply efficiency, and I've heard both good and bad about the Neo Power for these systems so the jury is out on that one. It could also be dirty power at the outlet because thos are very similar symptoms of a power issue, and finally a driver or OS problem..
Just some thing that came to my mind after reading your post. Perhaps someone else will have better suggestions, but that's what I'd be looking at anyways.
Good luck
