It's exactly the same situation as if two people are collaborating on a website. The most up to date version is on the one on the live server, not the one on your local machine. If you want to make changes to the live file, you need to download it to your local computer so that you can edit the up-to-date version. Unless you do so, you'll simply wipe out the new data and replace it with the original file.
One of the problems of InContext Editing is that it gives (usually) inexperienced people the freedom to edit web pages. Unless you set up the InContext Editing rules very carefully beforehand, you can end up with changes to the page that create a tangled mess of code.

1. CTRL E has never worked and I have always edited my site via a link that my web designer has given me ,I don't get an error message just nothing happens, any ideas?
2. When I go through the link given to me by my web designer to edit the site the site appears but everything is smaller, font boxes etc, and not the correct size, I can edit ,however when I then exit editing and check to see if my site has changed nothing has .
Viewing the site outside of incontext editing all is normal, correct size etc , it is only when I'm in editing that the site appears different and not right.This is a recent problem and all ( apart from CTRL E ) has been fine.
Its almost like I have 2 websites one out here and one in incontext editing , any suggestions
Many thanks

Adobe 'InContext Editing' - use with DW8?
Hi, I am keen to use Adobe's 'Incontext Editing' service for CMS. However I am using Dreamweaver ver 8 and it seems that this service is only available to CS4 users?
Although I will upgrade to CS4 in the end does anyone have any advice for a 'get around'? Is there an 'Incontext Editing' extension available for DW8 ...or can I implement 'Incontext Editing' by simply making HTML changes from within 'code view'?
Many thanks

http://incontextediting.adobe.com/index.htmlThanks for your feedback on a workaround. I'm not quite sure if I understand what you mean. Are you referring to the ability to set up Editable Regions via the browser .....?
[ http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InContextEditing/Administrator/index.html#editable ]
I have worked out that by inserting code using DW8 such as <div ice:editable="*" id="content"> I can go so far in preparing the document for making changes. I wonder if there is another resource for other ICE codes?
Many thanks

Using Incontext editing with PHP pages
Hi,
Has anyone established whether you can use incontext editing
with php pages. My site works perfectly except for the pages i have
created in php. The reason i have used php is that they are secure
that only certain users can access.
The error message that comes up is: "No input file specified.
" But the page is up.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.
ChrisHello Chris,
Yes, it is possible to edit PHP pages with InContext Editing,
however InContext Editing should not be used to edit dynamic
content in PHP pages. If you edit dynamic content that is loaded
into an InContext Editing editable region, it will be overwritten
as static content.
In regards to the problem you're experiencing, it appears to
be an issue with the HEAD http request. InContext Editing is using
HEAD requests to check the existence of the draft and published
versions of the current page (in your case, InContext Editing is
making a request for products_bedroom_draft.php). If those calls do
not work as expected (the HEAD should return status code 200/304 if
the checked page exists, 404 otherwise) then you will experience
this behavior.
A HEAD http request for products_bedroom_draft.php is
returning a 502 Bad Gateway status code which is not what InContext
Editing expects.
Please contact your web hosting provider for assistance with
this server issue. This will likely require changes in web server
configuration.

Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Best regards,

I have trawled around the support pages but although it mentions in passing that this is possible, I can't seem to find out how to do it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?Hello Rupert,
This version of InContext Editing does not offer a method to specify access rights per pages. This is a functionality that we have in mind, but we don't have a set date for when it will be available.
Thank you,

Is anyone using Adobe Photoshop Streaming Edition with Chrome OS?
Adobe Creative Cloud Comes To Chromebooks With Photoshop - Forbes
This article (click on link above) indicates that a beta version of Adobe Photoshop Streaming Edition is available through the Creative Cloud to members of Adobe Education Exchange to use on multiple operating systems including the Chrome OS on Chromebooks and Chrome Box. Is anyone using this app? If so, where to you go to download the app? Thank you for your help.Well, maybe, CS3 is the only one fully compatible, but Photoshop CS and CS2 will work...mostly. There are a couple of niggling little problems, but I have been able to do what I want, one way or another, with CS1. Elements 2 is, like PS7, a dead letter in Leopard, but Elements 3 and 4 work. Of course, these older programs run in Rosetta, being non-Intel native, and so my MacPro runs them at the same speed as my old G4 dual 800. I'm looking forward to a speed boost when my Xmas upgrade to CS3 is installed.

T4i... lousy SD video... has anyone used SD and had final edit look ok. on timeline its a disaster. cell phone does better video.. im a pro video type and at this point may return cam and wait for a more capable eos.. like a mirrorless 60d...
Speedorms,
I would like to help determine what is causing this.
What exactly are you seeing that is poor quality in the video from your EOS Rebel T4i?
What are you using to edit your video?
What settings are you using to edit the video?
When you refer to SD, are you referring to the card in the camera or Standard Definition video?
If you prefer a mirrorless design, we do have the new EOS M. You may want to take a look at that model to see if it has the features you are looking for.
If this is a time sensitive-matter, additional support options are available at Contact Us.

Business Catalyst Help | Defining InContext Editing editable regions using any code editor
This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/defining-incontext-editing-editable-regio ns-1.html
This is what I meant by shape.
Normally, I drag out a rectangle with Muse,then set it's background fill so that it can turn in to a object which I can change the states for the button. I published my site with several this kind of links and I want to change it whenever possible in the in broswer editing. However, at first, when go to in browser editing, this object is completely not editable. After I added in the attributes of the Editable Regions,
<div ice:editable="*"></div> I get an full editable functions.
For example in my site, I have a rectangle with an image background to it,with an external link. And after I added the
ice:editable="*" in the div tag,I got to edit my so called "button".
Keep in mind that this had a link to it.
After I click edit, a full control showed up, so I try to select the phot and insert link ,hoping that it could add a link to the photo.
However, after I specifiy the adress, the photo is gone and a text link is left behind. I can still add back in the photo but I just can't make it a linked photo.
And what's eventually left behind isn't the linked photo, but a linked text.
The main question I'm wondering is that if I'm able to change the link of a image through in broswer editing,or the link of a regular shape like a rectangle, so that I can always update the link of the objects through buisness catalyst and when user clicking the photo/shape, they can be brought to an adress.
But it seems like I only can change the link for a text. -

How do i remove incontext editing to allow contribute to work
Hi, I am hoping someone maybe able to help...
A while ago I put a site together at applied incontext editing regions. After being notified that it will no longer work in May this year, I decided to purchase contribute and went through the labourious task of removing all incontext editable regions and replacing them with normal editable regions.
I have launched the site in contribute to test that everything works and it keeps coming up with 'You can't edit this page in Contribute because it has "Adobe InContext Editing" region(s).
This is on almost every page on the site but two which it allows me to edit. I have gone back to the Dreamweaver file and checked through the code, I am certainly no code expertI have compared it to sites which didnt have the InContext applied to it... I am baffled
Can anyone shed any light on the situation?
Much appreciated
NaomiFor anyone that has a similar problem....
I have now sorted the problem - my dreamweaver was not updating the server copy. I used FETCH as a secondary option by dragging and dropping the files. It updated the files and its now working! YAY!
I had to make sure all incontext code was removed at the top of the code there was a line as well as along side each editable region. I even took out the editable regions and replaced them with normal editing regions (not Incontext). -
InContext Editing not showing "edit page" button
I made a site for someone using dreamweaver and defined areas as editable regions.
I've used InContext Editing before and found it really easy with no problems until now. When I log in from my computers (varrying between 3 different browsers and 2 different operating systems), it works just fine.
At the top I see exactly this:
There are two rows at the top, and I can click "edit page" and it works perfectly.
When the person I made it for logs in, he see the top row... like this:
Clicking "Edit Site" seems to do nothing for him (well, me neither, but I can just hit edit page)...
I can't check what's going on with his computer because I don't live where he lives, but I had him make sure he had the most recent version of flash, and he does.
Does anyone know of any common problem with this? Does he have too old of a browser? Is he disabling something on his browser that's blocking the second row?
I've googled this pretty thoroughly and can't fine anyone that has had the same problemAssuming here that you have set up ICE regions on that page...
And that he "accepted" your invitation to do ICE.

InContext Editing Flash Problem
Im wondering if anyone has come across this problem or help
with a solution!
I have just started to use InContext editing on a site im
developing.
I have a small bit of flash in the header coded this way ;
The problem is this flash will disappear after i have logged
into InContext edting and edited a region, click save, done.. Page
will reload now showing draft version but the flash has now gone.
if i click publish the page will publish without the flash on this
page, and also now removed from all other pages.
Inorder to get the flash back i have to click Edit again then
done after the page reloads.
The flash will now reapear.
Can anyone help me with a fix? can supply more information if
needed..Hi RichyRich38uk,
Thanks for your patience.
Are you still encountering this problem? I downloaded your
source and flash and was able to edit, save and publish the page
fine without the flash disappearing or being removed. I was able to
do this in both IE and Firefox.
If you're still having the problem, please give me the exact
steps your taking to recreate the problem.
