Installing Dreamweaver CS6 on Lion seems to have broken video playback
Last night I was able to play the videos on the Adobe website (for example, CS6 & Creative Cloud Feature Tour for Web) on both Safari and Chrome. After downloading and installing Dreamweaver CS6, I can't play those videos. The page loads but the display box remains blacked out. I verified that I was still able to play the videos on another computer on the same LAN. I also confirmed that I can still play videos at YouTube. It just seems to be Adobe's website that's broken.
My computer is a Mac Pro running OS X Lion. I installed CS6 using an administrator account and rebooted after the install complete.
Anyone else run into a similar issue?
Thank you for trying the install. It may just be a coincidence that just before downloading Dreamweaver, I could view the videos and after installing, I couldn't. Those things happen, unfortunately.
I found some similar issues in other Adobe Forums. I went into the Flash settings, enabled the option for third parties to save Flash components and added tv.adobe.com and images.tv.adobe.com as trusted sites. Now I'm able to view the videos again.

======================
In Console messages I was finding the following along with error -1708:
.sdef warning for argument 'FileType' of command 'save' in suite 'Standard Suite': 'saveable file format' is not a valid type name.
So, I thought I'd change the save line as follows:
save document 1 as "QuickTime movie" in thePath
While this didn't solve the problem, it threw an error and allowed the script to continue with the error dialog rather than hang.
Interestingly, though, the Snow Leopard machine seems to register the same error and yet still manages to save the file correctly.
Any thoughts?

Mountain Lion seems to have broken my multiple-monitor setup.
I have a 6-monitor setup, which has been working fine for the last 5 OSX updates... but now, three primary problerms:
- one of the screens is half-dead. I can mouse to it and the curor appears and moves around, but the screen is otherwise black and nothing will appear on it. I can't even set a background on it.
- my primary desktop space which is 2560x1600 keeps reverting to 1024x768 when I reboot which of course re-messes up the desktop layout.
- in fact, all of the configuration changes with respect to displays get lost with reboot... resolution and screen locations with respect to each other... Agh.
I'm sincerely hoping many others are experiencing the same thing, so I'll know Apple is working on correcting the issue.
.. anyone else?Well, I'll reply to my own message in case anyone winds up here and wonders what to do. Here's what I did... I reverted back to Lion, restored perfectly from Time Machine to where my machine was a few days ago and I'm back in business.
This is the first time ever I've had to revert a Mac OS upgrade, but the simple fact seems to be this is a bug and perhaps an update or two from now I'll try again... once someone else has confirmed multiple video cards are properly supported.
Needless to say, my machine is completely factory parts... the cards came purchased with the computer and I haven't modified anything. None of this wrong driver, IRQ conflict, DMA channel issues and whatever else I thought I left behind when I switched from PC to Mac.
First time for everything, but perhaps Apple missed a QA cycle or two before pulling the trigger on this one. -

Dreamweaver support forumYou posted your question 2 minutes ago.
The first thing to try is Deleting Corrupted Cache in DW. You must turn on hidden files/folders in your operating system to find them.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
If that doesn't help, try Restore Preferences

If all else fails, use the CS Cleaner Tools below followed by a software re-install.

On how many systems can i install dreamweaver cs6
About a month ago i have format my whole old pc with also dreamweaver cs6 deleted (i had troubles with my whole pc, thats the reason to format the whole pc) I sell the empty pc. only windows 7 on it.
Now i have an new pc. and i have installed dreamweaver cs6 on it. it works ok.
My question is: on how many computers can i install dreamweaver cs6
I have in my home 2 times the program installed. one on this pc and one on the pc that i selled (The program dreamweaver cs6 was not anymore on that pc that i selled. I had deleted it)
Now I would like to sell the adobe dreamweaver cs6, becaus i don't need it anymore. is this possible? because i had installed it on two systems in my home. one on this system and one on a system that i selled (deleted the DWcs6 on the selled pc).You seem to be asking two different questions.
The answer to how many computers you can install Dreamweaver on is two. However, if you want to sell Dreamweaver, you must transfer the licence entirely to the other person. In other words, you can't keep Dreamweaver on one of your computers, and sell the other permitted installation to someone else.
Details of how to tranfer the licence (or sell your copy) can be found here: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/transfer-product-license.html.
However, you say that you deleted your version from one computer. That's not enough. You should have deactivated it first. You will need to get Adobe to cancel the activation on the computer you no longer have. Otherwise, the person who buys from you won't be able to install on two computers.

Hello,
I'm using a Dell Inspiron Laptop with Windows7 64-bit, and when trying to install Dreamweaver CS6 everything seems to install ok, but when I try launching the application I get an error that I'm missing ImageOptimization.dll. I've tried installing a few times, and restart before launching Dreamweaver. The strange thing is that Dreamweaver CS6 does not show up in the add/remove programs list after installation, so something must be going wrong during installation. I use the "I have a serial number" option and paste the number in and validates with no problem.
I purchased the download-able version from Amazon.com. The only other major Adobe product I have installed is Photoshop Elements 9, which I got through Dell when purchasing this laptop. Does anyone have ideas for me? I've tried googling the problem, but didn't find anything useful.
Thanks!
-EvanSorry, meant to reply to this yesterday. It was my antivirus software detecting that DLL and removing it. I had to really work to make sure all parts of the antivirus were off and not overriding settings to remove the file again.
Thanks for the reply though - it would of helped lead to the antivirus issue. (I never had to disable the antivirus to install software).

Installing Dreamweaver CS6 on WinXP Pro (was: I give up!!!!!)
Has anyone ever successfully installed Dreamweaver CS6 under WinXP Pro? The install went OK but when I try to launch DW it starts the launch and after 3-4 seconds of the launch process it quits/exits. I have tried everything on multiple forums such as de-install, cleanup, re-install under Admin account, delete and install new admin account, registry cleanup, install with NO user programs or services running, deleting profile folders etc. Oh yes, I successfully installed it on my laptop under Win7 and it runs fine. I have been struggling with this for a week or so. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

I have and I have had no problems so far. The only thing is I don't get any updates these days but I guess there aren't any.
For CC you need Windows 7 or Windows 8 so forget about it until you get a new machine. -

Update seems to have broken openbox theming.
I updated about 2 hours ago and it seems to have broken a lot of my window manager.
I use openbox as a standalone window manager and have had no issues so far.
I update every few days and today caused the resizing-freeze issue, so I downgraded the suggested packages which fixed that.
However I have another issue with theming.
Programs such as firefox, thunderbird, thunar etc... all have the correct theme. However I use some gnome programs such as rhythmbox and nautilus and neither of these are themeing correctly as well as terminator and all appear to have the default gnome theme.
I use obconf and lxappearence for themeing normally, however these seem to have no effect.
I've done a fair amount of searching and googling and am now very tired and am going to bed.
If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated. If I am being stupid in my sleep deprived state please feel free to point it out XD.Hi all. I'm also running Openbox and have done the following so far;
1. Installed gnome-themes-standard. Created a new folder ~/.config/gtk-3.0/; Created the file in the folder "settings.ini" with the following code;
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
Thanks to the info on the thread here
2. Checked out the post here. Downloaded the tar of Adwaita from this.page and did the usual "makepkg -s" magic and rebooted.
What I'm now getting is nm-applet in tint2 with the dark theme of Adwaita which is great but doesn't really match my dark theme axiomd but it's better than before.
What I'm wondering is how to manage this in lxappearance, change font etc?? If I select the theme Adwaita it's a light theme? Having looked in the directory there is both gtk-2.0 (i think this is the light one?) and gtk-3.0.
I've also noticed that it is affecting rhythmbox; slow to load and the status icon setting in the plugins is missing, so you close the GUI and find the app quits rather than the previous behaviour where it would close but the notification icon would still run in tint2 enabling one click control access to the GUI again.
I appreciate this is obviously a new implementation and will take a bit of time to learn but any tips from those in the know would be great!? TIA.

YouWinSomeYouLoseSome wrote:

I can... you cannot. I'm not sure why. It will not work on an app icon.
Are you sure you're doing this on a Folder?
Perhaps it is a function of Finder. You can try deleting Finder prefs to default.
Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences folder and trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again.
(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.) -
I was using Numbers this morning -- no major problem except that it didn't properly recover from page view (leaving junk on the right of the table).
This afternoon it seems to have broken. ALL my files, including the one from this morning have mostly blank cells. The contents seem to be there - if I click a cell the contents show up in the formula bar (or whatever it's called). And if I double-click to edit the contents reappear. But then go away again as soon as I finish with the cell.
Some (but not all) of the header cells in Gray Headers style show up, and some are simply a pair of faint white squares at the end of the text string. Check boxes show up OK.
Oh, and if I double click on a date it shows up for editing with the year as 00002010.
This is very distressing. I have a lot of data locked up in Numbers and as of now, all is unusable.
What's going on?Thanks for the help. Actually I should have mentioned that I tried that (I've been using Macs since my Mac IIfx in 1990 so I picked up a few tricks) as well as restarting. The problem remains.
In the meantime I've tried opening my files (remotely) with another machine. No problems. It's local.
Next I'll try reinstalling Numbers, if I can find the disks

I bought an iTunes Royalty free song to play behind a presentation. What I have seem to have is video file not an audio file. Am I missing a step?I want to download iTunes purchases as a .wav file or other audio file. Any help would be appreciated
I understand the confusion. Those tracks are royalty free to the owner of the tracks, yes. The terms of use of the iTunes Store still state, though, that all purchases are for your own personal use and cannot be used commercially:
USAGE RULES
1. You shall be authorized to use iTunes Products only for personal, noncommercial use.
They're probably fine for presentations in a class or to a group at your company, but you probably could not post the presentation or a video using these tracks on a public site. I'm no lawyer, though, to legally define what would and would not constitute "noncommercial". It's probably best to just buy your tracks directly from one of these sites of royalty-free music. Then the use license should be completely clear.

I have tried installing both from a standard account and from an admin account. The same error occurs each time.Hi Michael,
The final issue I mentioned is not with the installation but with the first launch.
My solution was to:
Open System Preferences at the Accounts pane
Click on the Lock icon in order to make changes, and enter an admin user name and password.
Select the standard user account that is to use Dreamweaver
Check the Allow User To Administer This Computer checkbox
Reboot the computer
Launch Dreamweaver from the user's account (now with admin privileges)
Dreamweaver does whatever it is that it needs admin privileges for
Repeat steps 1 to 3
Uncheck the Allow User To Administer This Computer checkbox, so that the user goes back to a standard account
Reboot the computer
Dreamweaver will now launch happily from the chosen user's standard account.
I imagine that it would not take a whole morning to fix Dreamweaver CS6 so that it throws up a "Please give me temporary Admin privileges" dialog on first launch. It might also not take that much longer to do whatever it is that it has to do on first launch in a folder where admin privileges are not required.
This would save hours of frustration on the part each of the thousands of end users who are likely to encounter these symptoms. -
Can't Adobe mail me an installation disk if its online instructions to install Dreamweaver don't work?
CS6 is in the CC App too, I figured it might have been one of those situations where someone is calling Dreamweaver "CS6" because that's the last version they were aware of.
But if it's the actual perpetual license version...
Download from the bottom of this page: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
Install and enter your serial/activation number to disable the 30 day trial.
If you already installed DWCS6 and it's just not working right, run the cleaner tool first to remove all traces of it: Download and Installation Help | Download and Installation Help
Then download, install and activate as above.
