Help please copying, importing files into Dreamweaver

Hello,
I am having trouble imporitng files into dreamweaver from Godady. What is my best route.
I downloaded Filezilla and connect my ISP, Hosting and passwords and successfuly my files loaded to filezilla.
I am perplexed at the next step as to how to get my files from FileZilla to Dreamweaver.
I am connected with the hosting, isp and file server as it shows in the box on the right.
I simply at the end of the day just want to make a few edits to content.

You can create a site in DW and download all the files using the "Get" action...
In DW go to Site > New Site
Give it a name (and an http address if you want)
When it asks "Where on your computer do you want to store your files? you can use the default folder it creates, or browse to a specific place
Next enter in all of your FTP info (like Filezilla)
Once you're finished, you should be presented with a FILES tab that shows your new empty folder.
Click the little extension cord plug-in icon on the left of that palette. This will connect to your site. Once connected, you can click the "Get" button, it's the down arrow in the same pallette.
This will download your entire site to your desktop as it currently exists. From here on out, you just modify your local file, then connect and "Put" the changed files.

Need help importing files into Dreamweaver CS5.5

Greetings,
Currently I have website that is hosted on GoDaddy.com http://www.4thdist.org/home.php . This site was created by another person that is not available to help with my problem. I am attempting to modify or edit this website using Dreamweaver CS5.5 and having difficulties loading the files into Dreamweaver.
First, using Filezilla I downloaded all the files and folders to my PC. At this point, I am stuck and cannot figure out how to upload or open the files and really need some advice. I read the Adobe help section on "importing" and it describes a .ste file. I searched the download folder and cannot find any file (*.ste)
I am hoping to salvage the site and not have to reinvent the wheel and start over. Any advice would be extrmely helpful........Gary

Thanks for the quick reply.
Your comments raised some new questions. Let me update all on where I am. First, I am able to connect to GoDaddy server via the the local and remote views in the bottom right corner of DW. I see the file folder structure on GoDaddy. I can also see the file structure on my local hardrive that I copied using filezilla. Although, using the server connection I notice that I can download the files using this connection now. Should I delete what I did via filezilla and start over using the romote server connection? One more problem. I have content for two (2) websites on the remote server. http://www.vfwstatepoolleague.org/ This is in addition to the listed in my original post. Although, it appears the other website content is in a seperate folder. I assume that I will need to separtate this content somehow. At least link to it when I begin to start to create a .ste file for each site.
I started to read the article "Creating your first website"in your post and should be very helpful. I did run into a little road block.
I created (2) site names and linked to the appropriate folder on my hard drive. Although, I do not have: "check_cs5" folder on my local or remote folder. What does that mean? Should I create one?

Problems Importing Files Into Dreamweaver

I have previously imported files in Dreamweaver by dragging them from my desktop & dropping them into my websites local files. Suddenly today, I can't get any files to import into Dreamweaver. I am using Dreamweaver 13.2 on a Mac with OS 10.9.2.

Nothing. I drag the files from my desktop to the target folder in Dreamweaver, and nothing happens. I have tried shutting everything down & bringing it all back up, and I have also tried re-saving the file to the desktop. I was putting an html file into Dreamweaver when I noticed it wasn't working, so I tried a Word doc & PDF, all with same results. Out of desperation, I just tried re-synching my website, but (as I expected), nothing changed.

Copying website files into Dreamweaver to work on...

A basic question whose answer I'm having a brain freeze on.
Need to pick a site to work on for a Dreamweaver class. How would I
access all the files that make up a site and then copy them over to
Dreamweaver to work on them locally. View source? HTML? Tried
viewing source on the main page of one site and only got a notepad
file.
Thanks for any help.
P.S.--I might've gotten my answer. Copy the source code on
the notepad and pasted in the code section of Dreamweaver. Page is
visible in the design section but it's probably outside my root
folder. Will have to check that next.

HTML is only plain text. Notepad is a good HTML editor! You
have one
possible solution.

Premeire Elements 13 - can't import files into Project Assets, Expert Mode. Win8.1

Hello there - I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Can't seem to figure this out. In other computers, I have imported files into the Project Assets area to "pre-edit" before adding to timeline. I can add media directly to timeline in Quick Mode, but it's too cumbersome. Really need ability to select segments of media in the Project Assets list.
Any help greatly appreciated as I spent a ton of $$ on a new computer and program!!
Thanks folks!

What is the typical outcome...
a. Expert workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders/and no import into Expert workspace Project Assets, but you do find the import switching to Quick workspace Filmstrip?
b. Quick workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders and media goes directly to Filmstrip. And, if you switch to Expert workspace, you find copy of import in Project Assets?
c. Other

and in the 13.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 13.0 Folder in which the
Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exist. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives enabled so that you can see
the whole path described.
If that does not work, then do the uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular and registry parts), and reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
Download and install the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates.

I can't import files into the new iTunes 11. Why?

Since downloading the new iTunes 11, required for the new iOS 7, I can no longer import files into my iTunes library.
When dragging and dropping the files, nothing happens.
When importing them via the iTunes menu. Nothing happens.
I've tried adding them to the iTunes folder "automatically add to iTunes library". Nothing happened.
I've had the new iTunes for one day, and it doesn't work.
Can somebody please help me?!

Sorted. Sorry.
The files did not have album name / artist name etc... etc.... Had to find them and type them manually.

Copy Existing Website into Dreamweaver

I've got an existing website online, using Filezilla to access my server files. I've tried to import my files into Dreamweaver using the Get function. All appeared to have transfered correctly but I'm getting a "Can't find a valid editor for this extension" anytime I try to open a file.
Is there an additional step I've missed? Should I have downloaded the files differently?
Please let me know the proper way to download server files and set them up in Dreamweaver.
Much Thanks!

Does your developer use BestAddress HTML Editor instead of Dreamweaver? If so, that appears to be a propietary template file.
Or maybe it's a greeting card thing or a ChemDraw template, but I would bet on my first guess.

"Import Files into iTunes" automator action not working

I'm having an issue with a simple automator action, "Import Files into iTunes". It's the only thing I have in the workflow but when I drop audio files onto the application, the action encounters an error. In trying to figure out what was amiss, I read that there was a version number conflict after iTunes 10, so I followed the instructions here but they did not fix the issue. Does anyone have a suggestion on what to try or how to diagnose the issue? I'm running Yosemite (10.10.2) and iTunes 12.1.0.50. Thanks for the help!

Yeah, I'd happy provide details if I saw them. The message itself just says, "The action “Import Files into iTunes” encountered an error." Is there a way to get more information on the error?
Thanks!

Unable to Insert Adobe Edge Animate files into Dreamweaver CS6!

I have just tried the new Insert Edge Media feature in the new Cloud version of Dreamweaver CS6, but I can't get it to work!!
I have the option, but all the files in the Edge folder are unhighlighted (grey'd out) and I am unable to select anything Edge has published. I have noticed that the file extension has recently changed from .edge to .an with the launch of Animate.. Is this the problem?
Its a shame as its really quite tricky to put edge stuff into a web page at present..
Any ideas?
Wesley

Do you have an HTML5 web document open?
Below are instructions from the DW CS6 Reference document
http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/dreamweaver_reference.pdf
Import Edge Animate compositions | Creative Cloud
This feature is available for Creative Cloud members and point product subscribers only.
You can import Adobe Edge Animate compositions (OAM files) into Dreamweaver. The composition is placed at the location of the cursor. Dreamweaver extracts the contents of the imported OAM file to a folder named edgeanimate assets. You can change the default location in the Site Setup dialog.
1. Ensure that your cursor is at the location where you want to insert the Edge Animate composition.
2. Select Insert > Media > Edge Animate Composition.
3. Navigate to the location in your computer containing the OAM file, and open it. The animation is placed at the specified location.
By default, the contents of the OAM file are extracted to the edgeanimate_assets folder. A sub folder with the name of the file is created. The contents of the OAM file are placed in the Assets folder under this location.
You can place Edge Animate Compositions into individual pages not part of any site. The files are extracted to the location of the page.
Location of extracted files
     A. The edgeanimate_assets folder
     B. The folder created using the file name of the OAM file
     C. The Assets folder containing the extracted files
4. Preview the inserted Edge Animate composition in a browser or in the Live View.
Change default location for extracted files
1. Open the Site Setup dialog for your site.
2. Under Advanced Settings, select Edge Animate Assets.
3. In Asset Folder, modify the location for extracted files

How do I stop LR4 from organizing imported files into a folder by date.

How do I stop LR4 from organizing imported files into a folder by date. Most times when I import files I have already created a folder and sub-folder structure tyat I want to use. I then right click the desired folder and choose import into this folder option. Why does LR4 insist on organizing my already selected destination into a sub-folder with a date by default?

If you do it this way all the time consider a different approach:
Manually copy your images from the card into your desired destination folder in the Finder/Explorer. Once complete drag&drop that entire folder into Lightroom. When the import dialog pops up select to Add the images to the catalog (not copy or move). You will end up with the exact folder structure reflected in your library.

Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
I found the answer to my question.
When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

Import Files into iTunes

I've tried creating 4 or 5 different workflows and can not get the "Import Files into iTunes" action to work. This is only part of a bigger workflow that I want to create, but it's one of the most important steps that I can't seem to make work.
There is no error in the Automator log, it shows the action completed. But nothing gets added.
Can someone confirm that this action does indeed work in Snow Leopard 10.6.2 ?

Import Files into iTunes: Why not mp3?

I created a simple workflow and saved it as a Finder plug-in. Two questions:
1) Anyone know why iTunes allows (under +Add to Library+) the import of mp3 files, but when creating an Automator workflow using the +Import Files into iTunes+, the mp3 option is not supported. In other words, you have to use a different Automator function like +Add Songs to Playlist+. This works too, but it takes a long time because iTunes has to convert each file to AAC. The +Add to Library+ function in iTunes is wicked fast, and I don't care what format the files are in.
2) After creating a Finder plug-in and wanting to delete it, where does it live? I can't find it. Spotlight can't find it. I just want to remove it.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, red. It seems that +Import Audio Files+ supports mp3, but the description on the +Import Files into iTunes+ doesn't specifically include mp3. I suppose a quick test will reveal. The original reason for the question is that the Automator workflow seems to force a conversion of each mp3 file -- even when choosing the mp3 option in +Import Audio Files+ -- which obviously slows down the process.
When from iTunes I choose Add to Library, navigate to the target folder and click OK, iTunes completes the 80-or-so files in no time.
Thanks for the tip on where to find the plug-in. I deleted it. The Automator desktop apps seem to work better.
