Import locally stored site into DW

Hi
I'm currently using DW MX 2004
I have an old site stored on a local drive that was created
outside of DW.
Whats the best way to bring it into DW (retaining the links)
so that I can
begin working on it again and tidy things up.
Thanks
Ian

Create a new site defintion in DW that points to the root
folder of the old
site, by selecting SITE | Manage Sites > New. When you
click "Done", you
will be connected to that local site. Open files and begin
working in DW.

  • How can I import my iweb site into iweb on my new laptop?

    I recently got a new MacBook Pro and transferred my files over from my PBG4 12-inch (great little laptop). However my iWeb files/site didn't seem to transfer over to my laptop. I found the files of on my PBG4, and thought I placed them in the correct folder on my one.
    Every time I open iWeb it asks to start a new site. How can I import my old iweb site into it and continue with it? Is there a way of doing it? I've a read a few posts some talk about the file 'Domain' in the Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
    If I copy that file over to my new MacBook Pro, will my site be in iWeb again? I greatly appreciate some advice. Thanks.
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Isotopecrunch,
    Welcome to the iWeb forums!
    You are correct about referring to the Domain file; this is the file that contains all of your work created in iWeb, and the file that needs to be transferred to your new MacBook. There are some notes on how to do this here.
    Take the time also to make back up copies of this file, and keep them in a safe place.

  • Can't import temp BC site into DW

    Hello,
    I'm on a MAC running OSX 10.6 and DW on CS6 creative cloud. I created a temporary site using BC, spent a bit of time editing a basic 3 pages and forms module and now can't import into DW to complete additional edits.
    Site hangs when retrieving the site definition.
    I created a second site and did nothing, but the second site also hangs on import.
    Both sites show up in the associated window. I found similar posts on community, but no reply found.
    Thanks for any help in advance,

    When you initially set it up (import) into DW, do you also check the box to download all files?
    If so, don't. Do it after you have imported your site.

  • Import complete Flash site into swf in mini format

    Hi,
    I am trying to get a smaller size of a complete web site to
    run in a swf file on my web site.
    You can see what I am thinking at gggraphic.com/new under
    product and web design. I want the inserted web sites to be live.
    The script below works fine if the imported site lives in one
    single swf. But most of
    my sites run from a master swf that imports other swf's. The
    master will import in the specified size. But all following swf
    files will import in their full size. Is there some universal code
    that will make all files that are imported into the
    container movie clip adjust to the new size?
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Thanks on before hand.
    Sincerely
    ggaarde
    08.19.07
    Attach Code
    stop();
    var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
    mcl.loadClip("
    http://www.soundoil.com/CombFlash/CombFlash3.swf",
    container);
    trace("Loading started!");
    trace("File width is: " + container._width);
    var mclListener:Object = new Object();
    mclListener.onLoadInit = function(mc:MovieClip) {
    trace("Loading complete!");
    trace("File width is: " + mc._width);
    mcl.addListener(mclListener);
    container._xscale = 56;
    container._yscale = 56;
    container._x = 305
    container._y = 82

    sorry about that. from what I know it shoots in mpeg-2, but when you go onto the camera disk image the files are named .mod
    they can be imported into imovie 08, as .mov (but when I click "get info" it still says that they are mpeg-2 and that they are compressed -- which *****)
    its also 16:9, standard definition. That's all I really know. What I ended up doing what I converted all the clips to DV with mpeg stream clip so I wouldn't have to render the video in fce. I did have to render the audio for some reason though.
    another quick question. If I have a lot of clips in the bin for final cut will it slow it down? I have about 70 and it seems to be the cause for "dropped frames" or whatever that dialogue box says.
    thanks again.

  • How do I import my GoLove sites into Dreamweaver CC?

    Hello

    There's nothing much to import.  Simply Define a site in DW by going to Site > New Site.  Tell DW where on your hard drive to find your GoLive Site files.  See screenshot.
    Given that GL generated code that doesn't meet current web standards and used proprietary stuff that isn't supported in DW, you will have to clean things up quite a bit and find replacements for any automated features or extensions you may have used in your GL site. 
    Most people find it's cleaner in the long run to just rebuild their site in DW.  Start with a new layout -- New > Blank page > HTML.  Select a layout from the 3rd panel & hit CREATE.  SaveAs index.html.  Repeat for other site pages.
    Then it's just a matter of copying & pasting old content into your new site layout.
    Good luck!

  • Import Business Catalyst site into Dreamweaver {subject edited by moderator}

    I created a website using Dreamweaver CC. I added business catalyst extension and want to use its feature for the site I created within Dreamweaver.  However, every time I tried to open up the business catalyst section, it wants me to create a new trial site.  How do I skip this step and integrate what I already created using Dreamweaver CC?  I don't want to have a trial site. I want to use what I already created using Dreamweaver CC with the business catalyst extension.  Help!!!!

    I'm afraid that's how Business Catalyst works.  You can't just upload any site to BC servers.  You must first create a BC account, create a BC site template, edit your template, activate BC modules, etc...  If all you want is to host your DW site without rebuilding it with BC, I suggest you look for commercial web hosting someplace else.

  • How can I import a non-BC site into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free sites?

    I am trying to import one of my non-BC sites into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free WebBasics sites.
    When I try to create a new BC site in Dreamweaver CC, it creates a BC template site, and I have unsuccessfully tried to update the files on BC - it won't let me connect.
    If I import the site from my portal, I don't get the option of a free site - when I try to upgrade, I get the credit card form asking for payment.
    I feel like I'm running around in circles with one foot nailed to the floor.
    Any tips?

    Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion.  I'm exporting the first section now.  I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie.  I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame?  If it can, what size should I select when I export?

  • How do I import an DW CS5 site into DW CC 2014?

    I am not seeing any answers to how I can import a CS5 site file into CC2014.  I've got a number of sites I'd like to keep editing and updating in this new CC version.  Can anyone help me?
    TIA,
    kt

    Thanks Murray, I did search here and couldn't come up with an answer.     The site and corresponding files are all on the same computer.  When I try to import, it is looking for a .ste file, which I don't have with my older CS5 site.  Are you saying I need to export this file from CS5 first?  Any clues?
    Thanks!

  • Importing pages and folders into a site

    How do I import pages and folders into a site? Dreamweaver
    must be able to account for all additions and changes, so that it
    can update as appropriate. We know it is not a good idea to move
    stuff into a site via the Finder (on the Mac, for instance). But
    when I search LiveDocs, and this forum, I find no pointers for
    bringing whole pages and folders into an existing site.
    My thanks in advance, David Allen

    Copy/paste within your site's root folder. They will be there
    when you go
    to the site in DW.
    HOWEVER, if a page you are copying requires files external to
    the page,
    those files must be copied in as well. And, they must be in
    the same folder
    names that they were in prior to the copy.

  • Can't import BC site into Dreamweaver

    I recently downloaded a trial of Dreamweaver and the adobe business catalyst plugin. When I try to import my bc site I am asked to login with this error message:
    "An account with the same email already exists in Business Catalyst. To associate the Business Catalyst account with your Adobe ID, please log in to the Business Catalyst web administration console."
    After logging in to the BC admin console I still cannot import my site. Is there some trick to merging the accounts?

  • How can I import a pdf file into numbers so it will open with a click

    How can I import a pdf file into a spreadsheet so that it will open with a click?

    You can link to a webpage or an email in Numbers-- that's it.
    The best way I found to do this is to enable websharing on your machine (see this article if you are running 10.8: http://lowendmac.com/crews/12lc/web-sharing-mountain-lion.html)
    You can then place your pdf files in the folder /Users/<your user name>/Sites/<somefolder>
    Then link to this using the url  "<your machine name>.local/~<your user name>/<somefolder>/<pdf Name>
    My machines name is "Proton" (you can get this from the System Preferences > Sharing pane)
    My user name is "wayne"
    so I stored a pdf file (DM00027543.pdf) in the folder "/User/wayne/Sites/PDFTest"
    and stored the URL "http://proton.local/~wayne/PDFTest/DM00027543.pdf" in the "URL" field of the Hyperlink inspector

  • Import previous iweb site from the internet? No old iweb files

    My mac crashed and I lost all the information I had stored in it, including the iweb files of the blog I created using Iweb. Is there a way to import my iweb blog into a new Iweb in the mac I purchased? The iweb site I created is still up, so I am wondering if I can import the entries from my old iweb blog into my new mac/iweb using RSS or some other mechanism to capture the text and pictures in my old iweb blog and transfer them to my new mac. I also use idisk, so when I log in to mobile me I see links to my old iweb blog under if I click on Idisk and then go to "site". Any ideas about how I can import my old iweb blog from the internet?
    The iweb version I have in my new mac is Iweb 3.0.3 (501)

    Jorge ~ Welcome to the Support Communities. Apple says:
    "iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.” (Source)
    ...If you don't have a backup of your Domain file (e.g. via Time Machine), paragraph 2.3 of this FAQ page gives some tips on how to use published files, graphics, photos, etc., to help rebuild the site from scratch:
