Dreamweaver will not save site settings local/network

MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.2
CS6 Dreamweaver version 12 build 5808
1st site definition:  I want to test files locally, then 'put' them to my test server.
2nd site definition:  I want to take the file from my local folder and 'put' it to my production server.
I mounted 2drives on the mac... my test server and my live server.  The drives have been mounted on different mount points so they don't overwrite each other. 
I go into Dreamweaver and select 'manage sites'. I browse to my local folder for the first screen...  the next screen (Server tab) wants the path to the test server.  I browse to the correct server (verified!!) and click 'Choose'.  The path shown in the box on the active 'Server' tab is correct.... BUT when I click 'save', the path CHANGES to my production server.
It will absolutely NOT save the information that I have specified.  I am connecting to my servers via local/network.
I've renamed the dreamweaver prefs folders and deleted the site-cache contents...  
Almost an hour on the phone with Adobe, and the tech told me they were not trained to assist with local/network setups.  What is interesting is the fact that when I browse out to my test server from 'manage sites', I can see my files, expand my folders, etc.  It is not a permissions issue- Dreamweaver just won't save the information I enter.
Would appreciate any help I can get on this....

Nancy, I appreciate your time but looks like we found something that will work for us...
OS X does not seem to know what to do with mounted drives if they have the same name.  For example:
ip:  192.xxx.xxx.22\MyServer
and
ip:  192.xxx.xxx.23\MyServer
when these are mounted, even at different mount points and with different IP addys, OS X only "sees" the sharename, and seems to disregard the mapping to the share   Awesome!! 
Re-naming one of the network shares was NOT an option, and the Alias option on OS X does not help at all..... OS X still only sees the sharename, even when the Alias is well......renamed as an alias....    go figure! 
Since we were unable to find any way to resolve this from OS X, we ended up creating a second network share for the target folder, using a different name.  Issue resolved.

  • Firefox will not save Site Certificate Exceptions even when checked to do so.

    I have a publicly free Wifi Access point near by that I use daily. When logging on to this site I get a Warning about the Sites Certificate and do I want to proceed, I choose YES and then are asked if I want to make this exception permanent and I put a check mark in the box for yes and press accept. This is suppose to permanently accept this websites certificate in the future. It does not.. It will not save the exception from one session to the next.
    IN SHORT: Firefox failure to permanently store website Certificate exceptions.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.

  • My iPad will not save app settings to icloud.

    I have tried with three different apps to get my iPad to save data to icloud.  These apps will save data to icloud from my wife's iPad and from my iPhone.  On her iPad, I can turn on the setting to save the settings to icloud and then immediately go to icloud manage storage and see that something has been written to icloud by that app.  From my iPad, the files never appear.  Also, if I delete an app that was supposed to write its settings to icloud, I get a message stating that documents pending changes to icloud will be deleted resulting in data being lost.  I have turned off documents and data in icloud settings and restarted the iPad.  I have deleted all of the apps that are supposed to write to icloud and reinstalled them.  I have deleted the icloud account and re-added it.  A backup to icloud works, so I know my account at least can write to icloud, but no apps can write data to icloud from my iPad.  The same apps on my wife's iPad can write to her icloud account, and the same apps on my iPhone can write to my icloud account.  I'm stumped.  Something has the documents and data queue to icloud clogged up on my iPad and I don't know how to clear it out.  Has anyone out there experienced this?  I had hoped iOS 6 would fix the problem, but I installed it yesterday and the problem still exists.

    1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Dreamweaver does not save site info

    I have a problem which started a couple weeks ago... DW CS4 doesn´t save my site info, every time I quit and start DW, my username and password in site info is missing. I uninstalled and installed DW again but no, doesn´t help. Any ideas?

    Thank you for your answer. I did that, I also deleted the whole configuration folder but it didn´t help. It is weird... DW remembers some sites info, but not all.
    For this particular site, I have used the Incontext editing and that has also caused some problems: A client tried to edit the page and message poped up, The operation could not be performed because there is insufficient disk space or the file write permission is not granted. Next time it said: You cannot edit or duplicate this page, the page does not appear to contain any editable regions. When I went to the page, it said that the page doctype is not valid...
    And there is disk space, editable reagions and the page doctype is transitional 4. 01... I don´t know if this has something to do with this site info problem, but I guess that is another issue.
    Any more ideas?

  • On Win 7 64 bit Firefox, 15, 16 and 17 beta will not save "Options" settings.

    I keep up with MS and Mozilla updates.
    I do not remember other significant event which might have caused this problem.
    The advice in "http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save" did not help.

    Some more testing. Running Ff 17 Win 7.
    The initial response to this problem told me to delete the prefs.js files (and some similar) from my Firefox profiles. Having done that I restarted Firefox, updated my start page preference and "save downloads to" option. After a Firefox restart the "start home page" had not been saved but the download save option had.
    Looking at preferences saved in my profile prefs.js was empty and prefs_temp.js was full of data. So I started Firefox, updated my "start home page", looked at prefs_temp.js and it contained my updated home page option. I shutdown Firefox, checked that my update was still in prefs_temp.js, copied my prefs_temp.js to prefs.js and resterted Firefox. Square 1, the default home page displayed, not my update.

  • I've updated to Itunes 11.1.3.8 and now Itunes will not save my settings.

    After upgrading to Itunes 11.1.3.8 it stopped saving all settings.  I'm running Itunes on Windows 7 and have not had an issue with Itunes until this upgrade.
    It starts up like a new install each time I open Itunes. 
    Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

    Actually your initial response had no resolve for someone with my particular problem except to take a route that is both not costeffective nor a possibility for someone who just purchased a phenomenal new Asus i7 with 8gb of RAM. It could have included something about switching compatibility modes which is a route that many people including myself should take and worked wonderfully. It's unfortunate people as yourself reply on these boards in horribly monotonous replies instead of offering solutions for people with certain software and actually being helpful. Enjoy your day.

  • RVS4000 Firmware v2.0.0.3 will not save settings

    I have a RVS4000 that will not save any settings. Click on, for instance, Disable WAN requests. Click save and it goes back to Enable.
    If I create a VPN tunnel, click save, it clears all settings like I didn't type anything.
    What is going on?

    I recently purchased the RVS-4000 v2 and setup a single VPN tunnel.  Then I upgraded to the latest firmware v2.0.0.3.  Today, I attempted to add a second tunnel and none of the settings could be saved.  I found that this was not limited to the VPN settings, so the issue is more widespread; although, I was able to do deletions of tunnels, so this appears to be some sort of global-edit-save issue.
    My workaround for the moment was to go back 1 level in the firmware, which of course, is always dangerous with any brand or device.  I was not comfortable doing that, but it works for the moment.
    Looking at the security issues which v2.0.0.3 addressed, I (and other users) are at a severe disadvantage if we are forced to use firmware prior to v2.0.0.3, and if we do, then we lose edit-save, at the least for VPN, which is why I purchased this to begin with.
    So, I'll throw this out to Cisco - the first report of this issue was in August.  It is now almost December and there is NO FIX?  Cisco is supposed to be *the name* in networking devices.  What is going on there?  Was ANY Q/A done on this firmware?  Now that you know it's broken, why isn't it fixed?  I recognize that now you are looking to retire the 4000, but I for one can tell you that this is going to leave a bad feeling with this author if it is done without resolving the obvious issues.  I am very sure you have a firmware engineer who knows what happened here and has a fix.  So, why isn't it out here for end users?  Product manager  - where are you?

  • System Settings will not save my desired mouse scroll direction

    I understand the Apple genius of wanting the Settings: Mouse: Scroll direction: Natural box to be checked.  But **** it, this is MY iMac and I want the scroll direction to remain Unchecked, so the screen scrolls in the direction I’ve been used to for YEARS.
    The problem is the System Settings will not save the unchecked scroll box.  I have to return to the System Settings every time I log on to UN check the Scroll Direction: Natural box.
    Will Apple ever fix this so that I, and others, can operate the scrolling as THEIR LONG-TIME USER sees fit?

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

  • My ipod was connecting to my home wi-fi just fine until I uploaded new music from my Itunes on my laptop. Now my ipod and my iphone will not connect to my wireless network. I've tried resetting the network settings etc... Nothing seems to work. Help!

    My ipod (version 6.1.3) was connectiong to my home wi-fi just fine until I uploaded new music from my itunes via my laptop. Now my ipod and my iphone will not connect to my wireless network. I've uplugged my wireless network and reset my network settings etc... nothing seems to work. Please help!

    Does the iOS devices connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS devices see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Since both iPhone and iPod stopped connecting I suspect a problem with your network.

  • CS6 page settings using Property inspector will not save [subject edited by moderator]

    I have a student who is working on building a webpage using a CSS template. They are trying to change their page settings (for example, the color of their hyperlinks) using the menu at the bottom of the page. However, these settings will not save. If anyone can give me an idea of how to move forward, I would appreciate it. Thank you

    Which version and build # of DW CS6?
    Do you have all the latest updates?
    Also which operating system?
    Has DW always behaved this way or is this something new?

    Hi Nuch1,
    I found an article that is contains very thorough Mail troubleshooting steps:

    You can use that article to figure out what part of the email "ecosystem" is the cause of the issue, and it can also help you attempt to resolve it.

  • Firefox security settings will not save any of my passwords even when i click on the check box for saving passwords. please help.

    When a pop-up comes up on the screen it will ask to save my password or not, well, I click on save password but it doesnt save any passwords even when I have the check box checked for remembering my passwords for certain sites it will not save any type of passwords at all. What am I doing wrong? I am using linux-mac OS user.

    Simply because I don't think about using this option that takes more time to close... I always close ALL my windows with the X.
    Firefox doesn't hang at exit also...
    Using Firefox / Exit doesn't always save the bookmarks also... let's say there is 80% chances it will but not always... I noticed the first time I open firefox after booting the computer... Bookmarks won't be saved... But if I close firefox and re-open it, then it might save it... 50% guess...
    I tried the safe mode, but since its closing firefox and re-open it... new saved bookmarks sometimes work, sometimes don't... it's pretty unstable...
    Hopefully there is a solution to this problem in a near update, annoying... else I will simply reverse to firefox 3.6.16

  • Firefox will not save my Connections settings, so opens on manual proxy every time, rather than No Proxy?

    I'm using Firefox 4.01 and it will not save my connections settings when I set them to "No Proxy" keeps defaulting to manual therefore it wont load any pages until I change it to "No Proxy" which I have to do every time I open firefox.

    Very weird day in Firefoxland
    First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
    Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
    Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
    WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!
