My templates can not find their page in Dreamweaver

How do I reroute a template so that it can find the pages that were derived from it..
I have a site that has gotten screwed up somehow and I have to redefine the paths from the templates from to their child pages... the message that
I get when I make a change to a template and it can't find its child page is the following:
Error accessing file
"macintosh_hd:Users:elizabethwallace:Desktop:mtti:mtti:Templates:news.dwt":finel not found (error code -43)
would someone be kind enough to help... thank you so much.

Before you do any of this, make a backup copy of your site files (not the definition, the folder and files themselves) and preserve them in case anything goes wrong in the process.
First, make sure your site is properly defined and all contained within a site folder.
Then make sure the Templates are all in the Templates folder.
Make sure each page is where you want it to be in your site file structure.
Go into each Template and correct any paths that need tweaking. If your site has been seriously discombobulated (technical term!), you will want to check and fix every link by the Browse for File method or the Point to Link. DO NOT try to type the paths into the Template yourself manually.
Open each page in succession, and re-apply the Template that it should be linked to. You do that in Modify > Templates > Apply Template to Page.
You may have to "assign" copy to editable regions at this step.
When you finish with each Template, test it by making a minor change to the Template and propagating the change to the child pages. Check the child pages to make sure they are updating when the Template is changed.
If everything looks good, it is good. Shake your own hand and pat yourself on the back for retrieving a difficult situation.
If this does not work, post back and we will think about it some more. But it sounds like a reasonable course of action to me.

  • Preview can not find linked pages

    When previewing my index page I click on the links created
    using flash buttons and they can not find the pages on my hard
    drive. The flash buttons are incorporated into my basic template as
    a library item. When The error occurs the page address that is
    being looked for is shown as follows:
    file:///C:/KECSITE2/kecpartyfiles/Moonwalk-Bouncehouse-rental-Massachusetts-Connecticut/bo uncers_moonwalks.html
    If I click on the same link while previewing other pages ,
    the page is found and the address is as follows:
    file:///C:/KECSITE2/kecpartyfiles/KECPARTY%20SITE%20FILES/Moonwalk-Bouncehouse-rental-Mass achusetts-Connecticut/bouncers_moonwalks.html
    the page is displayed.
    all the regular html links work when previewing on all pages
    and there are no broken links found when I check links site wide.
    and the links both flash and html all work when published. This
    only started when I added the flash buttons as links.
    Is it possible I changed the way the preview works?

    suggestion one:
    Go into dreamweaver Preferences->Preview in Browser
    put a checkmark in "use temp files for preview"
    Suggestion Two: Do Not Use Flash Buttons.
    Just don't
    there are ten possible reasons this isn't working. If you
    just used text
    links to the other pages, there wouldn't only be two possible
    reasons it
    isn't working.
    again- suggest you don't use Flash Buttons or Flash Text.
    There's a reason adobe finally listened to us and removed
    Flash Text and
    Flash Buttons from CS4.

  • Firefox sometime can find specific server then at other times it can not. Also when on a web site and you attempt to go to anotherpage on the site, it lock up or can not find the page.

    Firefox cannot find a server that it has gone to easily in the past. Also it will lock up or can not find a page with in a web site ie like with FoxNews and you want to read and article. Firefox cannot find it. Sometimes I can not even log on to FireFox.

    Hi Corel
    Thank you for your reply
    However I need the lower case version for some sites and the upper case version for the site in question? To make matters worse this site does not allow you to change your log on name unless it is in the form of an e-mail address
    So what I need is Kostas for this site and kostas saved for other sites and allow me to choose which one I want to use
    How do I do this please
    I have no bother with this on Win Internet Explorer but I like Firefox
    Mind it may be as simple as deleting The appropriate entry and resetting with Kostas instead of kostas?
    But I would appreciate knowing the correct solution from an expert

  • I have 10.6.8 and have installed two new printers HP 8610 and an Epson 7880 and can not find the Page Set-up menu anywhere in the applications I a trying to print from. There are no page sizes, paper types, appearsto be locked on a 13x19 size but It.

    Hi to the Mac Folks,
    I have 10.6.8 and have installed two new printers HP 8610 and an Epson 7880 and can not find the Page Set-up menu anywhere in the applications I a trying to print from. This is regardless of either printer selected.
    I primarily print photos from Photoshop CS5.  The term Page Set-up has gone missing in the file pull down menu. Can't make any choices  There are no page sizes, paper types, appearsto be locked on a 13x19 size paper format. Either being too large or too small.
    Saw a 2008 locked issue about this however none of the help fit my situation, options discussed are not available to me.
    Preview has no "Page Setup" - or does it?
    Does the constant struggle with computer compatability weirdness issues ever end or is it a enslavement scheme?

    Hey,
    if you know the name(s) of the root folder(s) you want to access (eg. by making a note on the Windows side) then you can make them appear by just doing Shift-Command-G in Finder ("Go to Folder…"), and entering the full path to the required folders.  You can then navigate all the contents as normal.

  • Can not find applications pages and numbers after I reinstall to os X. I've read that this applications are free.

    Good day. I did an upload for my mac and now I have an Mac os X. I've read that with this system you provide applications: numbers and pages and others for free. I checked in Purchase for that and I dont see them.

    You've used the wrong name for the folder that holds the html page.
    http://web.mac.com/artworksforyouth/iWeb/Site/Home.html
    Is what it is trying to find (and it doesn't exist).
    www.artworksforyouth.org redirects to www.artworksforyouth.com which then redirects to your iWeb page.

  • Running FOXFIRE 6.0 on a Windows 7system and when I go to Sync I can not find the option of adding another device. Where is it?

    Trying to sync another computer to sync, but going from Tools to Options to Sync I can not find the Add A Device choice. have looked everywhere but can not find the frame that allows me to enter the codes from the second computer. Have installed the sync function on the first computer and have received a sync key.
    What am I missing and where do I find "Add A Device"?

    Thanks for trying to help solve a problem in Foxfire's sync function. I guess I haven't done a very good job describing the problem so I'll try again.
    My desktop computer is running Windows 7 and Foxfire 6.0. I had no problem establishing a sync account and obtaining the Foxfire Sync Key. Now I would like to sync my Asus Eee Transformer Tablet running Android 3.2 and Foxfire 3 (for Android). On the tablet I go to Sync, then Connect, and get the three-box code to be entered on the desktop computer where the sync account was established. So far, so good.
    I then go back to the desktop computer and in Foxfire click Tools, then Options, then click on the Sync symbol, then click on Set Up Foxfire Sync, which is the only option available. I am then taken to a page with two options: Create A New Account, or Connect. sunce I have already created an account I click on Connect. I then get a page with a three box code and am told to go to the other device (the tablet) and select Add A Device. Unfortunately, on the tablet the only choices available are Sync and connect, which returns a three box code. No where can I find a page or an option fo Add A Device and enter the three box code.
    So, in summary, I can not find w page to Add A Device and enter the three box code on either the desktop computer or the tablet. If all else fails, I guess I can go back to day one and establish a new sync account on the desktop computer, or completely give up on the sync, which is a nice feature but one that doesn't work.

  • HT4059 I downloaded a book on my iPad but I can not find it. I thought there would be an icon on my app pages for the book but there is not. Where do I go to get the book?

    I purchased an I book for the first time and now I can not find it. I thought it would bean icon on my apps page. Where did it go"?

    How/where did you buy it ? If it's an ibook from Apple then you can only download and read them in the iBooks app on an iPad - if you have the iBooks app on your iPad, and that book doesn't show on the bookshelf in the app, then you should be able to redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app.

  • Trouble opening a just created Pages file.....error message says I need a newer version of Pages......Apple Store says I have version 5.0.......opening an older Pages file it says I have version 4.3.......can not find any way to try another upgrade to 5.0

    Thanks

    Personally, I would not recommend deleting/removing the iWorks 09 folder for several reasons: one is that the new versions have had several functionalities removed and until you decide that you can work with the new one and do not miss any features the older version had, I would leave the old one in place. Personally, I will not be using the new versions.
    The second reason is that you can accomplish what you want using a different approach: simply open a Get Info window of your document and choose which version of Pages you want this to open in - you can also stipulate that all docs like this are opened with whichever particular version.
    FWIW: Once you have edited an old document in the new Pages version, you can no longer open it in the older version. However, you can still export it to the old version.

  • Safari is not able to open this page because it can not find the server.

    I too need help with this problem with my Ipod touch. Currently, I am in the Ukraine, go to a wifi cafe, access the wifi and get a clear powerful signal. Then I try to load the Google page, any page from my bookmark or write the web address in and I receive the same message; "Safari can not open this page because it can not find the server." Something is wrong with my settings and I tried to reset the options but it does not work. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks!!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    The 169.254.xxx.xxx address indicates that there is a problem with DHCP server in your BT Digital Hub (Home hub?) because the iPod is taking a default IP rather than been given a suitable one. At the moment the iPod is not even in the same subnet as the router so it's no wonder that Safari can't find the Internet.
    Ensure that the DHCP server is on and that you have an IP-address pool sufficiently large to serve all the devices you have. I'd expect it to be 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253. If you have FON enabled you certainly need that wider range as other people may be using your router too.

  • HT4262 where can I find AirPort utility 5.6 - my old Airport express module is not supported by Airport Utility 6.1.  I was directed by the program to this page, but I can not find that application anywhere on Apples's webpages.

    Airport 6.1 does not support my Airport module (the second iteration), and tells me to download Airport Utility 5.6.  I can not find it via the directed link from Airport utility 6.1 nor anywhere else on Apple's web site.  It is also not on the App store.
    Thanks in advance.

    cd ~/Downloads && pkgutil --expand ./AirPortUtility56.pkg ~/Downloads/AirPortUtility56 && gunzip -c<./AirPortUtility56/AirPortUtility56Lion.pkg/Payload | sudo tar -C / -xvf - "./Applications/Utilities/AirPort Utility 5.6.app"
