How do I open a BigCommerce site in dream weaver?

I have a bigCommerce store and I want to open my site in Dreamweaver CC so I can edit the templates and create new templates.  I am using one of the BigCommerce stock templates as a starting point.  I can figure out how to make the changes on my own but I can not for the life of me figure out how to simply open the site in Dreamweaver so I can start.  Anybody know how to import the files for the first time?  Any help is appreciated.

Again, I have no idea if this will work.  The first step is to define your site in DW by going to Site > New Site.  Tell DW where on your hard drive you wish to store your site files.  C:\yourSiteName
Then under servers, input your FTP log-in credentials.   Hit TEST button to confirm your connection.
Once connected, you can GET files (down arrow) from your remote server via the Files Panel (F8).  See screenshot.
Let us know if it works.

  • How can u open certain web sites w/out adobe flash? It won't let u download help

    How do u open web sights w/Kurt Adobe flash?? It won't download it help

    Flash itself is not supported on any iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) which is why you can't download it (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/)
    Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are probably out of luck if you want to play on-line though the iSwifter app might work on some of them, but again some flash games have app versions in the store.

  • How do I create a slide show in dream weaver

    I just purchased dream weaver cs5.5.  I need to mahe a slide show. I tried a flash,but my flash is out of date. I can't even figure out how to update it...I tried!
    Any simple way to creat a slide whow? I tried the widgets....they are not good.....I tried enlarging them and placing a color back ground. then when I view it, it has not changed.
    Please, I need to know how to create a slide show.
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    Hi Tyler,
    in addition to martcol's hint: You could have a look to "Adobe Widget Browser", for example: "html5 Video Player Widget" or "jQuery Cycle" or "Lightbox Gallery Widget" aso.
    On the other hand there are really so many nice options and "gimmicks", like these ready-made solutions. Later, when you see the mode of operation and how they work you could use a DW-flash-show, ok?
    Just look around in and on these pages and don't get confused by the large range, look at the different sides in peace, it is worthwhile.

  • How do I open a CS5 site in CS6 (CC)?

    I just upgraded to CC and DW6.  I have a site in DW5, but for some reason I'm missing how to open it in CS6. 

    Do you have DWCS6 Cloud Version (DW 12) or DWCC (DW 13)?
    If you haven't uninstalled CS5 yet, open that and go to Sites > Manage Sites > Export and create a .ste file for your sites.
    Then from CS6 or CC go to Sites > Manage Sites > Import to import all of your site settings.
    If you don't have your old DW, go to Sites > New Site and browse to your site folder on your HD to set up a new site based on the same local folder.

  • How can I open a site in DW CS4?

    Hola
    I had been using GoLive for a long time, now I'm trying to learn  DW
    In Golive, when you make a site, the program automatically make a .site file
    with folders for everything.
    In DW CS4 I cannot find the .site file anywhere --I don't want to talk about all the folders that I have to make--
    I have made a couple of site in DW and about 10 to practice.
    Every practice website has a name --Web_1, Web2, etc--
    When I need to open the whole site in DW, I'm having a hard time
    For some reason I can not find the .site file anywhere.
    If I go to; site/manage site/import... the program is looking for the .site file and it's just not there
    in NON ONE of the sites that I have made.
    Where is it?
    Do DW made one .site file automatically and I just cannot find it?
    Do I need to make one myself every time that I make a site in DW?
    How can I open the WHOLE site and not just the index page in DW?
    I love the program, and I know that I'm going to need patiece and time to learn, so thank you for your help

    "I have a folder I called Sites, that I put all my sites into, so it would look like
    C:\My Documents\sites\newsite\
    Once you set that up, in your files panel (Window | Files), make sure that you are working within the correct site.
    HTH
    Gary"
    Hola Gary
    I have a folder like that, however, if I move to another folder exe:C:\sites
    is when I have problems.
    when I go to file\open, I have no option(s) to open the whole site
    Only in --Site\Manage site--is when I have the option,
    However, if I go to a different directory, I can only open the index file not the whole site...
    So, how can I do it?
    About the other answer that I got, I KNOW that this is not GoLive, I just mentione it because in --Site\Manage Sites -- the import command is "looking" for a .site file, so I thought  that DW makes one
    Thanks Gary for your help and all of you.

  • How do i open sites that require adobe flash? I can't open my own website, not to mention tons of other sites.  It's ridiculous.

    How do i open sites that require adobe flash? I can't open my own website, not to mention tons of other sites.  It's ridiculous.

    Flash is not supported on the iPad and never has been supported on any iOS device - and as Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and they have recently announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.

  • How do I get mt web site to appear when opening iWeb to edit?

    I can still access my web site (iWeb 3.0.4) on line but it does not open on my computer when I click on iWeb.  I just get a window to publish to MobileMe with the icon for a new site in the upper left. How do I find and open my original site?  I have put years of work into it.

    The file you need toi backup is name domain.sites2 and is located in your Users/Home() /Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.  Without that file you won't be able to continue to edit and maintain your website.
    However, remember this:
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home()/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    So if you're running Lion or Mt Lion you'll need to make that library visible before you can find and backup the domain.sites2 file.

  • How do I open a GoLive backup .site file in Dreamweaver CC?

    Hi,
    I need to recover an old website. It's a .site file that was created in GoLive CS2. I now have Dreamweaver CC and need to find out how I can import/convert that site to open it in Dreamweaver. Please help!! I am using Mac Mountain Lion OSX.

    .site files can only be opened in GoLive.  AFAIK, .site is a database file that is associated with the actual HTML, CSS, JavaScript and images on your hard drive.
    Do you have access to the real site files -- perhaps on your hard drive or a remote server?
    If not, you might find what you need on one of the Internet Archives like Wayback Machine.
    http://archive.org/web/
    The actual site files are what you need to edit in Dreamweaver or any other plain text editor.

  • When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

    When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

    You cannot retrieve the already published site as iWeb CANNOT open it - it has no import facility.
    You need your domain.sites file, which you can find under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.  You do not need any kind of account for this because it is your domain.sites file that resides on the hard drive of your Mac anyway.  Find this file and you can alter your website.
    Use a spotlight search to try and find it and if this does not work you can download something called Find Any File.  If you really can't find it, then you'll have to start from scratch because iWeb cannot open a site that is already published.

  • How do i open my pre existing iWeb created site in iWeb? (computer got wiped entirely without backup)

    I have a pre exisiting website that i built with iweb about 2 years ago. Within the last month my computer got wiped entirely. I was unable to do a backup before this happened because it froze up in the middle of a software update. How do i open my site in iweb to continue editing it?? It is still online, is there a way to import it? Thank you!

    Unfortunately, iWeb does not have an import feature. So, the website will need to be recreated. With, it being online you may be able to copy and paste your content from the site online to the one that you will be recreating in iWeb.

  • How do you open the site definition in Sharepoint Designer?

    Hi,
    I am looking to open this to try to edit it. Where is it and how do you open it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to edit the site definition in SharePoint Designer.
    A site definition is a collection of files stored on the server used for all new sites and templates created in SharePoint.
    They provide preconfigured lists, Web Parts, navigation bars, features, and so on for each site.
    The role of the site definition becomes especially important the next time you perform server-wide maintenance, for example upgrading the server, applying a solution upgrade, or a branding exercise.
    Not only is the site definition updated, but all the pages associated with it are updated, which keeps them consistent and easily manageable.
    Microsoft SharePoint Designer 2010 is a Web and application design program used to design, build, and customize Web sites running on SharePoint Foundation 2010 and Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010. With SharePoint Designer 2010, you can create data-rich
    Web pages, build powerful workflow-enabled solutions, and design the look and feel of your site.
    The following articles about the SharePoint Designer and use the Designer to edit the master page, I think they are the good beginning for you.
