Help! Open MX files in Dreamweaver 8

Any ideas? My older files are not opening in 8... they start
to open, then blink closed. Not sure why they don't open. I don't
use Dreamweaver too much, but need to access older files rather
than recreate.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you.

HTML is HTML. The older files should open with no problem.
Can you post a
link to one of these older pages, so we can see the code,
please?

Can Not Open ASPX Files In Dreamweaver CC ?

I just upgraded from Dreamweaver CS6 to Dreamweaver CC and now can no longer double click to open ASPX files.
Is this something that was removed from Dreamweaver CC?
Or, is there something I need to install or edit in order for it to work again?
I tried adding it to the Extensions.txt file, but doesn't seem to be working unless I entered it into incorrectly.

You can apply the default file association in windows. Follow http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-vista/change-which-programs-windows-uses-by-def ault
Also, you can try adding it in DW preferences.
1) Go to Preferences < File Types/Editors.
2) Click on the "+" icon on left Column and add the extension you need.
3) Click on the "+" icon on right column and add the Editor as Dreamweaver. Locate the Dreamweaver.exe file installed at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC".
4) Click on Make Primary Button and Click OK.
5) Close DW and re-launch.
I hope this helps

Can't open my files in Dreamweaver CS3..

The program opens but I can't open either my local or my remote files. Please help! As soon as I try to open a file, Dreamweaver crashes and i have to close it. I had a brief chance earlier today to update a couple of html pages but then it stopped working again. I have no idea what caused it. Nothing has changed on my computer that I know of. up until, this program has worked excellently for me.
Please help.

Opening XHTML files in dreamweaver

An agency gave me all the files to a XHTML page that I opened
in Dreamweaver. This includes html, .inc files, css style sheets
and java files. They are all structures in their correct folders(I
think). When I open the XHTML in Dreamweaver, I get nothing what
resembles what is currently on the web. In the design work area(the
WYSIWYG part), I see nothing, but one element on top of another and
everything is flush left.
When I preview in a browser, everything is just like in
Dreamweaver–the layout is completely gone.
I'm new to CSS, what am I missing? Why are XHTML files not
WYSIWYG.
Thank you Brian

Heya Brian,
You have answered your own question. The reason the xhtml
files do not show style on the page is because no style is
presumably set for the page. Learn CSS and you will in effect be
learning how to add style to your page.
Hope that helps!

Why won't Dreamweaver CC open proto files, while Dreamweaver CS6 does

I just found out that Dreamweaver CC gives an error when trying to open an Adobe Proto file: "error extracting the proto file".
That's weird, because Dreamweaver CC uses the same plugin/extension as Dreamweaver CS6 does, or am I missing something here...
Opening the same proto file in Dreamweaver CS6 works without problems.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

This is annoying but i was able to open it on my mac os x laptop using the following steps:
Copy the .pro file to a location on your computer and change the file extension to .zip
Using Terminal i was able to use the following command (the default unzip application could not unzip it for some reason) in the command prompt: unzip file.pro.zip
In the Renditions folder that gets unzipped you will find an html.zip (actual filename) file.
Unzip html.zip (the normal unzip application works on this file)
Set the local site directory to the extracted html directory. You can then edit the site using DreamWeaver CC.
i hope this helps.

jason

Open iweb files in dreamweaver

Hi! I have read so many forums about this topic. The solution everyone seems to have is to publish your iweb files to a folder and then open index.html through dreamweaver. I can open the file, however, it only displays a code and the file size is only 4kb. I know that my site is way larger than that, so I'm thinking i'm opening it incorrectly or something. So if anyone knows and could give me fool proof step by step "for dummies" directions, that would be awesome!!

iWeb's index.html files don't have any content. Open the other .html files which you find in the sitename folder.

Help opening raw files in PSE 13

Hello,
I upgraded PSE 13 from PSE 9. I was using PSE 9 with my Nikon 600 (because I couldn't open the 600 raw files in PSE 9) by using the Adobe DNG converter. This was working fine. Since upgrading I can't open any Nikon 600 raw files in PSE 13 nor can I open the converted DNG files. It only recognizes jpeg files. The "Open in Camera Raw" option in the File drop down menu is also grayed out and can't be selected. I've tried the "updates" option from the Help menu and ran the updates, shut down PSE13 and also shut down computer and it still isn't working. Wondering if I need to download a new ACR but can't find any that support the Nikon 600. Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you for your help.
When I do the "Help" drop down menu there isn't an option for "adobe plug-in" just "about plug-in" which doesn't list any options that seem to help when clicking on and none that say Camera raw.
I read the manual instructions for downloading and am currently downloading the zip file; it is about 70% done. Will this help?
This is what I'm referencing:
These instructions were originally written to install ACR 8.2 for PSE11, but have been updated to install ACR 8.3 with PSE12. While ACR 8.3 RC would work with PSE11, ACR 8.3 final will not. Only PSE12 will host ACR 8.3.
ACR 8.3 will work with PSE12 to open 70D files, but on an older Windows OS like Vista or XP there is no compatible installer, so a manual install is the only option. I should also say that the process outlined below does work on my Windows 7 64-bit computer, but I also have PS-CS6 and PS-CC installed on it, so it is possible that ACR 8.3 is dependent on something that wouldn't exist on a computer with only PSE installed on it, but someone else will have to confirm that.
I was able to get 70D files to open in ACR 8.3 on PSE12 by doing the following:
Download the ACR 8.3 for Windows update for PS-CC via the direct download link on the Adobe Blog - in the future this link will likely contain links to only newer versions of ACR but the process would be similar:
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2011/03/keeping-photoshop-up-to-date.html#notconnected
Unzip this downloaded setup.zip to a folder somewhere.
Inside the files from that zip is a folder called payloads \ AdobeCameraRaw8.0All-031213015928.
(Note that for future versions of PS and ACR the folder name will be different at the end, but the general format shold be similiar, and the important thing is that this is the folder without x64 in the path, because at this point PSE is a 32-bit program so we need the 32-bit version of the plug-in. At some point in the future, PSExx may be 64-bit and the approporiate file or files could be the 64-bit version for the 64-bit version of PSE. This zip file is for Photoshop which has both 32-bit and 64-bit versions so there are both versions of the plug-in as well.)
Inside that folder is another ZIP called Assets1_1.zip so unzip it somewhere.
Inside Assets1_1.zip there is a file called 1003. This is the largest or perhaps only file in that zip and is the plug-in you need.
Copy this 1003 file into the existing PSE12 camera raw plug-in folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats or for a 32-bit Windows OS, into: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 12\File Formats
Rename the existing Camera Raw.8bi to Camera Raw_8bi_80 (in case something doesn't work and you need to rename it back, later).
Rename 1003 to Camera Raw.8bi
After these steps you have the ACR 8.3 plug-in installed in PSE12 but not the camera and lens profiles, so install those by downloading and installing the DNG Converter 8.3:

Need help opening pdf files

I have a cd, which I have had for several years, and was able to use until the last year. Suddenly, Adobe Reader (I have tried several versions, updates, fixes, whatever!) says that each and every pdf file on the disk is damaged.
This is a cd that used to be able to start up on its own, and had various menus to get to the final pdf pages. I cannot open the files through windows explorer, nor by going through the menus. Each time, the error message tells me the file(s) was damaged because it was sent via e-mail or some other method that caused the files to be damaged. The problem with that is that the files and the cd were never altered, as the cd is not a rewritable one. It is also not pirated, if anyone is going to ask that question.
The cd is a manual for my vehicle. It has a parts manual, and a workshop manual along with other items. When the cd is put into the drive, it starts automatically, but cannot get a single file open. I have tried this in two different systems, and I get the same results. The strange thing is that I have files made under earlier Reader versions that still work. So why not this one, and why isn't someone at Adobe available to help me straighten this out? Shame on them!

I am facing the similar problem. Not able to open some PDFs. Was able to open till 2-3 months back. Did some analysis that not able to open the files created with version older the 9.0 of Adobe Reader. Also tried to open the same PDFs in my colleagues' Laptops and my home PC. No Success.
NEED SERIOUS ATTENTION FROM ADOBE.
You are in a user to user forum. If you want attention from Adobe, you'll have to contact Adobe and pay for the attention, as they don't provide free attention for problems related with the free Reader.
Adobe Reader cannot create PDF files, only open (read) them. If you cannot open some PDFs from within Reader in your machine and others, most probably they are damaged. Are you receiving any error messages when you try to open them? "Not able to open" doesn't say much, really.

Opening cfm file in dreamweaver displays unicode

hi. i'm brand new to coldfusion, and when i open a .cfm file
in dreamweaver 8, most of it is showing up in unicode. how do i
make it legible?
thanks!

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks for explaining Coldfusion
Administrator to me. My problem is that I've been giving an
application built by a 3rd party vendor, and my boss would like to
know how much we will be able to edit the application in-house.
They have given us all of the .cfm files and we host the server
running the app, so I have access to the dbs as well. But whenever
I try to open these .cfm files I see the encrypted characters. Is
there any way for me to edit these pages?

Help opening PDF file

I purchased a ticket on line and saved the file to my desktop to print at a later date, however, I am not able to open the file. I get the following message: "Ticket_40f6d0fd-1b68-4af8-8b1a-94458395fb71_517107_4.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." Does anyone know what I need to do to open the file. Thanks.

Thank you very much for your reply. I am using a MacBook Pro. I don't know how to tell the version of the reader but it is a new laptop and I am new to adobe reader.

Help open eps file

I have a graphic12.copy eps file I can't open. What do I have to download to open it please? Newmo

Hi newmo,
You can open the file via Adobe Illustrator.
