My Website Disappeared!? DW CS4 & Powweb

I designed a new site using Dreamweaver CS4. My web host, powweb, helped me with the configurations under Site|Management over the phone, and it showed up great on the internet!
I then realized I misspelled a word in the index.html homepage.
I edited it and pressed File|Save and then Site|Put.
A pop-up asked me if I want to also transfer Dependant Files. I clicked "Yes", and then my laptop died. When I plugged it in, I realized my whole website had disappeared and left just a dark blue page.
I called both support centers, and Adobe wants $39 for info, and powweb says everything looks fine in their system.
I am a newbie with all of this, so please be thurough in your advice, if you can help.
Can anyone help me fix this?
Thanks in advance!

The good news is that your website is alive and well. It has not disappeared.
It seems that you have not defined a site in Dreamweaver so all your links in your webpage point to your local hard drive
<link href=file:///C|/Users/Heather/Documents/DreamWeaver Files/twoColLiqLtHdr.css
However, it seems that you have not defined a site in Dreamweaver so all your links in your webpage point to your local hard drive.
On the web, the server cannot find files (linked in your page) located on your hard drive so you lose all your formatting and your page breaks.

Do you mean you lost your local copy of your site files from on an old

Log-in to your Remote Server and GET the site files using DW or your favorite

Which version of DW did you have before?
How many installations of DW did you have? You can have up to 2 at a time.

Creating a multi-language website on Dreamweaver-cs4

Hi,
What would be the best aproach to create a multi-language website ( max 10 html pages , not a portal ) on CS4.
I had Joomla in my mind but I want to learn Dreamweaver way.
Should create different folders for each additinonal language and copy the default files and edit them accordinly? ( Default will be English, Turkish and German might be other options )
Thanks a lot

Watch for site management issues.
Here's a good reference: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/ora_dw_cs4_mm.html
You might have a home page that appears in all languages, linking to each section of your site. Each section might be in a folder named like "IVFDeutsch" for the German version, etc., and the 'home page' for German could be www.yoursitename.com/IVFDeutsch/index.html so you would have an index page in each subsection.
Consider using Templates, and a nav for each section that is presented in the language of the section, to treat your other language speaking visitors as well as possible.
You have many decisions and possibilities..have fun with the site.

Psd files disappearing in CS4 Photoshop

I've been working with psd files in CS4 and after saving once, everything seems normal. After working on a file more and trying to save, I get a message that it can't be saved because the file name is not valid. If I close the file without saving and try to reopen, it says I don't have permission to open the file. I've tried doing a SaveAs under a different name with same results. Even worse is that the files I thought I had saved previously simply disappear from the folder they were in if I do the SaveAs step under a similar, but different name (like adding -1 to the name.) They don't appear anywhere on the computer that I can find. Any ideas on what's causing this? I'm running an up-to-date Windows 7, 64-bit. CS4 also is a current 64-bit.

Hi!
I never did quite figure out what the exact culprit was, but because of my work, my employer--under the recommendation of the IT department, basically wiped my computer clean. On top of that, there had been a number of "permissions" that were locked down on every workstation due to other people on the network not being careful or particular about downloading files and overloading our server. (I wasn't saving outside of my own workspace at the time, but it didn't seem to matter). Special permissions were written just for my user and basically I was opened up to admin status. It took the combination of both the hard drive wipe and the permissions to set things back in order. The only sad part is that anything I had orgnized to my own liking such as brushes, fonts, tool bars and locations, etc-- all set back to default. It was worth it, though, to get things saving again. They also upgraded me from 32bit to 64bit. Still waiting on the memory upgrade, but things seem to be working MUCH better.
The 2 things that made the most sense to me (but who really knows!) are 1. Photoshop seemed to need a reboot. But uninstalling and reinstalling it wasn't enough. 2. Permissions, even though saying you have admin access (network or no network-- I run across this on my home computer) seem to get wiggy once in a while and need to be reset. Not sure why or how the signals get crossed.However, I am not IT and don't pretend to know the ins and outs-- I know the software only. ALso, doing print files for things like banners, etc-- those can get pretty huge based on the necessary resolution and how in depth the client wants to go on the artwork. That being said, file size didn't seem to make a difference in my case. I would be curious to know if anyone finds a solid answer to why this is happening. It doesn't seem to matter which version of the Creative Suite you have because you are working on CS5 and I currently have CS4.

My website disappeared after end of free trial

Hi there, I had a free subscription for azure and I had one website that has now disappeared and I don't understand why since I was told that the website would still be available even after the subscription expired, and I was told that more than
once (there is no paid for item in this website) http://web-dev.azurewebsites.net/Home.aspx. Why is that?

Hi,
Free trial is only for 30 days and website deployed will be available for Free unless the usage limit(
$210 ) to spend on all Azure services is exceeded. If it is expired, then you might have to go for Pay-as-you-go
Once you buy the azure subscription, the Azure Websites service is still available in Free, Shared, Basic and Standard editions. The Free tier allows you to host up to 10 Websites in a shared environment. Basic and Standard tiers run your web apps in private
Virtual Machines which are dedicated to your apps. You can host multiple websites/domains in each Basic and Standard instance you deploy.
How much you will be billed will purely depend on type of website tier ( Free / shared / basic / standard ) you choose for the website.
Estimate your expected monthly bill using our
Pricing Calculator, and track your actual account usage and bill at any time using the
billing portal. Setup
automatic email billing alerts to be notified if your spend goes above an amount you configure.

Text and elements disappear in CS4 InDesign.

Text disappearing from CS4 text frame.

I work in a studio environment with multiple computers/users sharing files from the same server. Occassionally when I (or another user) opens an InDesign CS4 file there will be text missing from one or more text frames. The frame is still there, but it is empty. If I close the file without saving and then re-open it, the text may re-appear in that frame, but text may be missing from a different frame, or no text will be missing at all – seemingly a completely random occurrance. We have tried to resolve whether this happens with missing/conflicting fonts, but there seems to be no correlation. The problem is not repeatable, but happens at least once a month. We cannot narrow down any ther common denominators within the files.
We run Mac Pros and iMacs, OS X 10.5.8 or later, InDesign Creative Suite 4, Suitcase Fusion 2 and we are running a Windows Server (sorry, no other details on that).
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for the advice, folks.
I have hidden text enabled and there is nothing in the frame. These are standalone frames – not linked to any other frames, so it wouldn’t seem to be a re-flow issue. My gut is telling me that it’s font-related, as we have MANY font conflicts between computers, however the issue sometimes occurs without the “Missing Fonts” alert appearing upon opening.
Suitcase Fusion 2… Unfortunately that may be the culprit. Yet another reason to not like that product, unfortunately. I will research that line of reasoning and report back.

Newbie: Change PSD image pulled from an existing website via DW (CS4)

I need to make a minor change to an image created in photoshop.
The image is from a website I took over from another designer and downloaded to Dreamweaver, and I successfully uploaded the image to Photoshop. However, since the image (in this case, the website header) is flattened, the only way I know to make the update I need is to create a "patch" for the part I need changed and try to match the font, color, and other elements.
Since I did not create the original file I do not have the layered version.
I have a number of sites to update with the same challenge. Is there an alternative to either creating the patch or having to reconstruct the PSD image from scratch?
Thanks in advance for any advice -
KE

I would rebuild the file.

Fix for disappearing Illustrator CS4 actions yet?

Hi,
Does anyone know if there's a work-around for disappearing actions yet? Every time I quit Illustrator (or it quits me), I have to load the action that I created again. More specifically, the "shell" of the action is there, but the steps to execute the action are not.
Thanks!

Yep, your action is very similar to the one I created. In addition to naming the layers, I also have an action at the start that takes the open file and does a "Fit Artboard In Window". (I created it in CS3, when I believe it was "Fit in Window".) I wound up going to Adobe directly, and the tech guru who replied said that "Fit Artboard In Window" is not a recordable action and cannot be done without some 3rd party intervention. I replied that it worked just fine for me off the bat when I created it (and then asked if there were any job openings at Adobe, LOL.) Anyway, he said that he doesn't know why they won't reload, and that's all he had to say about that.

Published website disappeared from iweb

I have a website that I have published to a file on my computer. The file is still on my desktop but the website is not longer appearing to edit when I open iWeb. Is there anyway to get it back into iWeb?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Did you reinstall the system before this problem started?
iWeb uses a folder/package titled domain.sites2 to keep all of the files used in the creation of a web site. It's default location is in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
Search your hard drive for another file with the same name. Download and use Find Any File as it will search areas that Spotlight can't.
If you find another file double click on it to open it with iWeb and see if it contains your site. If not and you don't have a backup copy of that file you'll have to recreate the site from scratch. To help you Chapter 2.3 of the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the published files in the reconstruction of the site.

Music notation lines disappear - PPro CS4 interlace?

I am editing footage to include music notation added on top of video footage. - ie 5 horizontal lines with music on them. Imported as screen grabs.
Footage is fine, and the music images are fine.
As I position them on my window, I start losing the notation lines. Some become grey and indestinct, others get bold.
I have been moving the vertical position in the 'motion effects and they return - but never all 5 lines, and not as clear as I can see them in the source viewer.
I have also been creating a 'bevel edge' letterbox round them, and it also makes the lines disappear.
I assumed it was a interlace issue, and have selected deinterlace on the drop menu for the images, but nothing really changes.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,
Don

Post a screen shot or two? Maybe that will help give someone an idea.
I wonder if this is the classic problem of thin horizontal lines and interlacing. Are the lines with the interlacing exactly horizontal, angled, or curved?
Another way of ruling this out: what is the pixel thickness of the lines that are showing the problem?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Most recent website disappeared

I am running iWeb (3.04) on my iMac (OSX Mountain Lion) and Mac Book (OSX Lion).
The domain.sites2 filer is located in Dropbox, but also locally on each of the two macs - same name i.e domain.sites2.
Yesterday I made a major change to my site on my MacBook.
When I launched iWeb on the iMac this morning I was unable to launch the revised version. It has also dissappeared on the MacBook.
My question is
Is there a way to identify which of the domain_sites2 files iWeb will use ?

The following is another take on selecting a specific domain file with iWeb in Mt. Lion:
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.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Disappearing website...

Hi all...
First post here, which I guess is a good thing...
OK, I'm successfully publishing my website using iWeb as I've done for years now...
But online, I'm getting a prompt:
"Safari can’t open the page “http://www.(my website).com/” because Safari can’t find the server “www.(my website).com”."
Might this be an issue with Mac?
Anyone else having problems with their website disappearing??
Thanks in advance!!

{quote:title=Tom Gewecke wrote:}Regardless of that, it is just pointless to ask for the kind of help you want here without providing your url.{quote}
OK, the domain name is RadioFreeOlga.com...
The folks who registered it say:
"Your domain name was renewed through 2014. The problem is not the domain. It is the DNS Hosting."
So-ooo, I paid 100 bucks for 5 years for what I thought was all I needed to run my site using MobileMe and iWeb--domain name registration...
So they want another 150.00 for DNS Hosting...
A rip-off??
Thanks in advance!!
I really appreciate it....
