Error message in Dreamweaver CS4

Hi all,
I wonder if anybody can help me. I've recently purchased Web
Premium CS4, and I've started to get an error message in
Dreamweaver.
The message reads as follows: "A script in file C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver
CS4\Configuration\Shared\Common\Scripts\dwscriptsExtData.js has
been running for a long time. Do you want to continue?"
When I click 'yes', the message disappears, and then
reappears immediately. If I click no, I get another error message,
after which the original error pops back up.
This is starting to annoy me! I only purchased last week!
Any ideas?
Thanks

Sounds like an extension may be incompatible with CS4. Turn
them all off
and see if that helps. Then turn them back on one by one.

CSS error message in Dreamweaver CS4

Hi,
wanted to start to work and get familiar designing websites with my "old" dreamweaver.
Every time I try to start or to use Dreamweaver's menus (new file, save as, etc) I receive the following error message:

Error message after transfering CS4 from my old computer

I am trying to transfer my CS4 suite onto my new macbook pro from my old macbook pro. I transfered all of my files from the old to the new but when I try to open a file in the applications I am getting this error message:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue.framework
Also, my cs4 installation disc does not work. When I double click the setup button, the icon bounces and then disappears. Is there a way I can download the program and reinstall the suite using my serial number rather than using the disc? The first time I installed the program, I had the same problem with my purchased DVD's.

I think you have used Time Machine to backup and move your data from old machine to new one. If so, your CS4 has gone corrupt and you might face such issues. You need to uninstall this existing installation of CS4 and then re-install CS4 again.
< Uninstall CS4 using its uninstaller from Utilities->Adobe Installers Folder
< Download and install the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and remove the reminents of Creative Suite applications.
< Empty the Temp folder(Go->Go To Folder->/tmp)
< Empty the Trash.
< Reboot the machine and install CS5.5
< Download Master Collection CS4 using the below link but make sure first you read the download instructions properly. http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
< Install CS4 and check.
Hope that Helps!

Error message when installing CS4 design standard

When installation begins the "checking system profile" comes up and about 2 seconds later the follow error message comes up - "setup error - setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe customer service". I installed on an older laptop I have to make sure the disk was fine and it installed just fine, so I don't think it is the disk. I have uninstalled previous Adobe product and run cleanscript for CS3 and CS4. I am using Window XP and the laptop has all the other system requirements Adobe lists for CS4 - Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Tend to agree. You probably downloaded a wrong language version of the installer. Doublecheck that and download again.

Error message in Dreamweaver Cs6

Dreamweaver gave my the following error message: This page contains some SWF objects that may not work properly in the most recent versions of Internet Explorer. Dreamweaver cannot convert them to the new SWF markups. Please delete each of them and insert again. It works fine in firefox and chrome. But most of our viewers use IE so I need it to work in there.

Error message in photoshop cs4

I am trying to download ExtractPlus into photoshop cs4 extended, and I get an error message that says "could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document. I realize I have to go into windows and change users etc. and I have yet the error box comes back regardless of what I do. Can anyone help? Thanks,

There are two versions of the plug-in in the Goodies folder, 32-bit and 64-bit. Each has the same name (why?) but sits in a separate folder. Each goes in the appropriate folder on your System drive. I would do both, regardless of which version of Photoshop you use now.
This is shown in the two screen shots below.

XML Parsing Error when opening Dreamweaver CS4

Hi guys, I downloaded a trial version of Dreamweaver CS4
which was downloaded from the adobe website and once i try
installing it it comes up with 'please delete current menus.xml
file and then rename menus.bak file to menus.xml'. Once I tried
that the new renamed xml file has the same problem as the old one.
Now, When i opened up the file in Firefox it came up with an XML
Parsing error. The exact error is as below:
XML Parsing Error: prefix not bound to a namespace
Location:
file:///C:/Program%20Files/Adobe/Adobe%20Dreamweaver%20CS4/configuration/Menus/menus.xml
Line Number 12, Column 5: <shortcut
mmstring:name="menus/DWShortcuts_Main_Quit" key="Opt+F4"
command="dw.quitApplication()" id="DWShortcuts_Main_Quit" />
----^
I am running windows XP SP3. Can anyone offer an
insight/possible solution? I've already tried the following methods
which have been suggested by other forums:
CS4 clean script on Adobe website
Microsoft installer clean up
uninstall and reinstall all CS4/adobe products
deleting Cache.db
deleting Macromedia folder
deleting faulty line in menus.xml file
Is there anything else I can do? Thanks guys!

1) Close Dreamweaver
2) Navigate to the Design.xml file and rename it.
3) Launch Dreamweaver and it will recreate the Design.xml file
The AppData folder is hidden by default on Windows, so you need to enable the option to view hidden files and folders in order to locate it, as follows:
In Vista/Windows 7, select Start > Computer > Organize > Folder and Search Options > View. In Advanced settings, choose Show hidden files and folders.
In Windows XP, select Start > My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > View. In Advanced settings, choose Show hidden files and folders.
Once you turn on this option, hidden folders are displayed as dimmed icons to remind you to treat them with care.

Error Message in Dreamweaver MX

Hi can someone kindly help me please. I'm just building my
first Web Site and can't put images on it the error message i'm
getting is Unable to create remote folder Assets, 550 create
directory operation failed in Dreamweaver mx what have I done wrong
any help would be appreciated.

When do you get this error?
Have you defined a site?
When you look at the site name in the list of sites on the
Files panel, do
you see a folder icon to the left, or two networked
computers?
Are you using Dreamweaver MX 6.0 or 6.1?

Javascript error message loading dreamweaver mx

this may be two different questions but here goes:
-- i downloaded the interakt kollection a while back and just
got time to use it. by now i noticed that a newer version was
available so i downloaded it. but it crashed my machine trying to
update. and an error message now comes up about a javascript error
trying to load one of the interakt files. i put the system back 24
hours but the same error comes up. i click okay and dreamweaver mx
continues, but what does it mean?
-- i'm just starting php programming and perform the simplest
function, saving a .php site in apache2\htdocs and a file within
the site. but when i try to run the php from the livedata view, i
get a http 404 message about the doc not found. no wonder: the doc
is not the one i saved, but has a longer file name. tried this a
couple of times with different file names and the same thing
happens. suggestions please.
thanks,
michael

You may need to uninstall and then reinstall DW &
Interakt. The issue that
you are probably running into is that Interakt changed some
of the DW files
which worked until the DW 8.02 update came out, and rewrote
those files. The
Interakt updater probably relies on finding the updated DW
files.
When you preview a file DW creates a temporary version of it,
and runs that,
and then deletes it. You can not reference these temporary
versions in any
other way.

Stop the Internal Error Message in Fireworks CS4 or CS3

About 8 hours ago I ran into what is apparently a fairly
common problem for many people using Fireworks - the error message
that wouldn't allow me to save anything. Luckily, I paid attention
in class long enough to at least know to save my work often, so I
didn't lose much - just a basic wireframe that I threw together in
15 minutes or so. Thankfully, I tried saving when I did or this
would probably be a very tearful night for me. Instead, it's just a
long night. I can deal with that.
But, before I pat my iMac on the top of it's screen and say
"goodnight" I wanted to share with you the secret to "fixing" the
error message. Hopefully this will help those poor souls in the
future who need a little guidance from someone who's been there,
done that, and is too tired to design the t-shirt. This method will
also work on Windows machines.
I'm not saying this is guaranteed to work for you, but I'm
telling you it's worth a shot. It only requires a little of your
time to do and will hopefully be the fix you need. If it's not,
please accept my sincerest understanding of your frustration and
try another method. This fix suggests that you have added, removed,
or relocated fonts on your computer since the last time Fireworks
worked properly, however, even if you haven't done any of those
things I'd still recommend giving this a try. Here's what you do:
1. Open your favorite font manager software. I prefer the
pre-installed Font Book on the Mac, but you can use any font
manager that you want. Some good commercial font management
programs for Mac include, MasterJuggler, Suitcase Fusion, FontAgent
Pro, and Font Explorer X. For Windows you might want to try, Font
Fitting Room, X-Fonter, Suitcase for Windows, OT1 Font Manager by J
M Berthier, MainType, FontExplorer for Windows, Printer’s
Apprentice, FontAgent Pro for Windows, Typograf, or FontExpert.
Those are in no particular order, just in case you were wondering.
2. select all of your installed fonts - including your system
fonts. Run your "validate font" command for the font management
program you're using. Sit back and let it work. I had more than
6,000 fonts on my Mac, so it took a few minutes to run through all
of them.
3. Your font management program should let you know which, if
any, of your fonts are corrupt, duplicates, or otherwise
dead-weight. Chances are there will be a few if you're getting the
internal error message at start-up or save with Fireworks. You need
to delete or at least remove these fonts from the fonts folder. I
had, and I'm ashamed of this, 256 duplicates and 135 dead fonts on
my poor computer. But, in my own defense, I did just reinstall many
of the fonts a few days ago and was planning to gradually work
through them to pull out the dead/unwanted ones. I should have done
that before putting them to disc last time, but no... I wasn't
thinking.
4. once you have the fonts removed/deleted that produced
errors or warnings during the scan with your font management
program you might want to run the scan one more time just to be
sure you got everything out. If everything looks good, you can now
quit/exit the font manager.
5. here's where things will seriously divide for Windows
users and Mac users. Therefore, I'm not going to fully explain
where you need to go or how to get there for this step, but I will
provide the basics. On your computer, you need to find the folders
for fireworks that contain your preferences for the program (hint,
look in the user's appdata folders, which is hidden, for Windows or
the user's Library for Mac). Inside the preferences folder you'll
find a file that houses a list of fonts, probably called fontlist
or something very similar. Delete it. You might also wish to delete
the cache for the program preferences. Those need to be regenerated
in order for this to work.
6. Find your computer's font cache while you're looking
through the massive amounts of folders and delete the file there
too for a little added security that this will work.
7. restart your computer.
8. open Fireworks and create a new file. Save that file to
your computer in whatever format you want.
If the program opened, the file saved, and you didn't receive
that same old error message, congratulations, it worked! You may
have to re-establish your preference settings, but you shouldn't
have any other problems.
That is the best I can do this evening... or morning I
suppose it would be. Best of luck to you!

Keep getting a weird error message in AE CS4

I keep getting this error message concerning a few of the files in my Project bin:
I get this message multiple times when I open this particular project and repeatedly click "OK" until the project finishes opening up. The result is missing files. When I go to replace the file with the proper file which it already should be anyways it pops up this error message on me again. What does this mean and why are my files not able to be in AE? Sometimes they are and sometimes not.
I can drag the same file into the project bin and it will work fine (but I have to go through the trouble of putting it back in the correct spot in the layer stacking order in my compositions that use this particular file).

Hi, still having this problem. What's weird is it's intermittent. I'll go to open the project one day from the same drive hooked up the same way and it will work and then the next day, without even having imported anything into the project the previous day, it will give me the error and I'm screwed because there's so many files that are "missing". I tried renaming a long file name with only 10 characters in the finder and then replacing the file in AE and when I hit OK it gave me the same exact error message.
