DW CS5 - Is this normal? Blanked out menu in Library group

Hi; As part of the CIB course I am doing, I have to create a library entry.
So I select a button from the sidebar and click on the CSS Tag to select them all.
Then click on Assets > Library > New Library item.
A warning box appears which I "OK", and then all the text and the background behind the text (Not the whole button) goes black in design view.
Testing in Live view is OK, as is testing within a browser, but having done that the text & background to the text is yellow (Yellow is used as a text colour, but not background).
Odd if not life-threatening, but is there anything I can do to make design view behave?
Thanks

With a health warning - I am partway through this course, so links etc don't
work!
However this page in design mode just has yellow strips where the vertical menu items should be.
That may be normal, hence the question!

  • When I share a link (URL) only Apple computers receive the link. Others such as PCs and Blackberries get the message, but the field which should have the link is blank. Is this normal?  Why can I only send to Apple machines?

    when I "share a link" (URL) using the pulldown menu in Safari, the email goes to all addresses I indicate, but only Apple computers receive the link. Others such as PCs and Blackberries get the message, but the field which should have the link is blank. Is this normal?  Why can I only send to Apple machines?

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Arrange Menu Blanked Out for New Items - Adobe Edge

    Why is the Arrange Menu blanked out, it's very VERY frustrating when I want to simply adjust the layer of some text I created in Edge as it was thrown to the bottom layer which isn't very handy when I am trying to add it in as new content on the TOP layer.
    what is the point to having an Arrange menu if it doesn't even work?
    Is there a setting that I can change to enable layer alterations or am I missing something here?
    EDIT
    As a bit of extra information, I read that you need to edit the layer of items using CSS which if that is true leaves me in the SH## due to the fact that the software I am using creates Inline CSS and I honestly have no idea how to modify that.  I'm using WYSIWYG Website Builder 8.5.
    The other thing that is frustrating would be that I have only 2 options... create all my content inside of WWB 8.5 or build it all inside of Edge.
    Unfortunately, if I want to add new items to my website, I would have to overwrite the old HTML when I export out of WWB which will erase all the content from inside of Edge... so the only choice I really have is to add content via Edge to ensure I don't lose all of my hard work setting up animations etc in the site.
    Problem is, for this to work out, all content needs to be added in Edge, not just the fancy stuff as it seems to be layer locked...  Really dissapointed if there is nothing Edge can do to enable layer modification... that will make it far less valuable to people such as myself who do not have the timeframe to learn how to modify inline css or any css for that matter.  (way I see it is that if you have to get in and work with code, then this type of "designer friendly" software hasn't really performed it's role properly)
    Sure this will shock the majority of purist web builders and professionals who love to work with code day in day out notebook++ is their friend, but why can't things be done differently, does the code have to look all neat and tidy so long as it works?
    EDIT 2
    To clarify, all elements in the file are built and added outside of EDGE except for the most recent text field.  This text field was thrown somewhere in between several of the layers on the website and needs to be adjusted.  Also, layers created inside of WWB need to be adjusted outside of the software if possible to avoid re-exporting and the consequential wiping of the Index.html page I am adding animations to.

    Hi CX,
    If I understand correctly, you're importing an existing HTML page into Animate and trying to arrange the layers? This isn't supported in Animate due to a lot of complications that can go on with your external document; you have to manually assign z-index via CSS to control this. We deliberately impose as little as possible on your existing markup since if starts being amended progromatically there's a huge potential for misintrepertation; for example, if you have a navigation menu on your page and Animate imposes heirarchy on another element, your nav might appear below the page content which is obviously undesirable.

    This is often due to faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

    You are using the Eclipse Dali plugin to generate tables from your entities, not the EclipseLink JPA provider at runtime, so the settings in your persistence.xml are ignored.  The documentation for the Dali table Wizards state it will drop and create tables.  If you want to use the EclipseLink persistence settings to just create tables, access your persistence unit in a test case or deployment.

    Yeah you shouldn't use ~ in general. That is a shortcut for "Your home directory."
    This is not strictly true. ~ is a "meta-character" in Unix shells -- it is an instruction to the shell to substitute the path to a home directory. It only has meaning in a Unix shell command, and only if ~ is the first character in a file path name. Outside of a Unix shell ~ has no special significance (although other programs might adopt a similar convention).
    I don't see any reason why Aperture would be doing tilde expansion, and if it is, it is doing it wrong. "March~May Asia Trip" is a perfectly legitimate name in both Mac OS and in Unix. There is nothing taboo about using ~ in a file name. This behavior (which I can confirm) is almost certainly an Aperture bug.

  • I'm running V7.0, but when I launch Firefox, a page comes up that this version is out of date followed by a second normal page

    I'm running V7.0, but when I launch Firefox, a page comes up with a heading "Almost there!" followed by a message that this "version is out of date". Then a second normal tab/page of the browser opens.
    Yes I close the first tab but it has become a source of irritation since I installed V7.0

  • Why can't GB let me use 'electric guitar' option when using Nio 2/4 interface - I have to use real instrument and miss out on all the effects. Is this normal for all interfaces?

    Why can't GB let me use 'electric guitar' option when using Nio 2/4 interface - I have to use real instrument and miss out on all the effects. Is this normal for all interfaces? The Nio reads hte guitar but GB doesn't....

    Usually effects packages are AU plugins that would have no effect on track selection. Interfaces should have no control over what kind of track you can select. I really think something else is going on her maybe something you overlooked.
    Did you choose the input channel in the track info pane. Try both channel 1 mono or channel 2 mono. Make sure the track is record enabled.

  • Brand new iphone 5 in recovery mode straight out of the box, is this normal?!

    Hi all,
    I got my new iphone 5 upgrade today, inserted sim card and plugged it in to my laptop to copy everything over from my 4 but when it's plugged in to either the laptop or the charger, the black screen with the silver apple just keeps flashing every few seconds and it won't power on.
    I've tried doing a reset (keeping home and lock buttons pressed) and it came up with the connect to itunes screen but this was while it was plugged in to the main charger so as soon as I unplugged it to plug it into itues the screen went blank and it's back to square one!!
    **update** the boyfriend managed to get it to the connect to itunes screen and itunes reported that it had detected an iphone in recovery mode and it needed restoring.
    So, it this normal to expect a brand new iphone to be in recovery mode?!
    Advice would be appreciated, many thanks

    Well first just to let you know the "connect to iTunes" screen or also knows as "the usb cable pointing to iTunes" means to connect it to iTunes to initially set the ipod up. Now if you already have done this or dont get the option to try forcing into recovery mode and then restoring the ipod followed in this article. Also make sure your computer and iTunes is up to date with the latest software.
    If not i would try connecting it to anther computer with iTunes 9.0.2 installed and then call Apple if that doesnt work since you purchased it from the Apple online store.
