One of my sites still connects but the other gets An ftp error occurred cannot make connection to host.

My problem is in “connect to remote server”. I manage two sites in Dreamweaver CS6, and they are hosted by the same guys. One site still connects fine but the other one has stopped connecting. With the second site when I click on the button I get a delay then "An ftp error occurred -- cannot make connection to host".
However I can still access the second site’s remote server through an FTP program, and the Host tech support confirms my login is working fine from his computer.
I tried doing this old trick (1) Site > Manage Sites > Export to create a .ste file (2) quite, restart (3) Manage Sites > Import the .ste file (4) click on connect to remote server -- But that made no difference

Just because both sites are hosted by the same firm doesn't mean they are on the same physical server. Your problem connecting could be attributable to many things.
User name and password may have changed or been reset.
Server permissions problems (GoDaddy is notorious for this).
IP blocking.
Server is down.
etc...
Are you able to connect with a 3rd party FTP client like FileZilla? If not, I'm guessing this is a server problem & you need to contact your host.

An FTP Error occured - cannot make connection to host. No response from the server

"An FTP Error occured - cannot make connection to host. No response from the server".
As of today this is all i get when trying to connect to every single ftp account i have. It's not the server cause it's every one and there is several different. Tried passive and non-passive same result. I've connected fine with other FTP clients. So this must be another dreamweaver bug. Anyone know what to do?

Very hard to diagnose these problems, particularly as you can connect using a 3rd party program.
See if the 'timeout' issue could be at play here:

An ftp error occurred cannot make connection to host DW CS4

OK... I just recently installed Dreamweaver CS4. I am trying to connect to a clients site and I keep on getting the following error:
an ftp error occurred cannot make connection to host. the remote host cannot be found
A couple of days when I was in DW CS3, I never had this problem, apparantly others have also had this problem however all the help that I have seen is for PC.
When I entered all of my info, I then proceeded several times to 'Test' , I have been able to connect succesfully but when I try to connect to remote host, I get that error message.
Please help!!!!
I am using Mac OS X Version 10.5.8

Hi,
In the remote info tab, Access-> FTP, click on Server Compatibility button.
Uncheck FTP Perfomance Optimization.
Try to re-connect to your web server.
OR
In the FTP field, you don't have to type the protocol (ftp://....)

Dreamweaver - FTP error occurred - cannot make connection

Hello I am trying to update a site and I am getting an error:
FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host.
I absolutely did change any kind of FTP settings in the last 3 months.
Everything has been working fine up until now.
Justhost is who I use, I talked to there tech support they said they checked on there side and are able to connect and everything is working there, they are telling me it has something to do with dreamweaver.
The only thing new is a I did an update earlier to adobe creative cloud - I don't think that would be the problem though.
If anyone can please please help me or point in the right direction I will greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Hello,
it's well known, that In all these cases you describe I'm not a friend of a detailed troubleshooting. To be able to be independent in all this things It is one of the reasons why I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
To manage several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Mac: Mac OS X (Use: Show additional download options)
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server and for MIME issues, you should contact your web host/provider.
Good luck!
Hans-Günter
P.S.
Since I use two screens, the whole thing became even more comfortable.

FTP Error Occurred - Cannot make connection

I've been receiving this message:
"An ftp error occurred - cannot make connection to host. Your
login or password is incorrect. Please check your connection
information."
when trying to set-up and download active websites originally
built in FrontPage. Do Dreamweaver & FrontPage not play well
with each other? Why would that affect my being able to connect to
my websites via Dreamweaver? I have double and triple checked the
logins and passwords. They are correct. Also, I have no problem
setting up and uploading a new site.
Remote Info Site Definition Settings:
Access: FTP
FTP host: www.mywebsite.com
Host directory: blank
Login: my login
Password: my password
I've:
tried with passive FTP checked and unchecked
tried with Secure FTP checked and unchecked
Unchecked FTP performance Optimization in Server
Compatibility
Thanks to anyone who can help :)

No. My sites that I created originally in Dreamweaver work
and connect fine. I've compared the settings and I have them set
the same. It's driving me nuts, to say the least!!

Error message: an ftp error occurred - cannot make connection to host. ...not authorized to make the connection due to local firewall

I am currently using windows 8.1 and also have a norton antiviurs software installed.

Have you disabled your Windows Firewall?
You should also download and install (free) Filezilla, and see it it works for you.
Always good to have a backup FTP program.
I assume you have toggles the active/passive etc. settings

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?

Mac OS 10.8.5
None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We have double checked all of them and we have everything exactly right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Could there must be factor in 6 that didn't exist in 4? Something that isnt in the SiteSetup but in some hidden dialog box ?
I can also upload to my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And as I said DW CS4 works fine. So the problem is not with my host, its with DW CS6 in particular.

Thank you Jon, that fixed it perfectly. You have saved me from going crazy. The only difference I see now is in "Server Name" it changed what I had entered (my ftp address) to "Remote Server"; which seems odd -- but it works! Although I know there maybe also some other dialog box I have never seen
Of course I saw that menu item "Import" and but I thought thats obviously not for me: "Why would I want to import an entire website?". I did not however see "Export the selected site" for thats only a tiny icon in the footer. However I would have thought the same: "Why would I want to export my entire website?".
An observation: I've seen this problem in a lot of Adobe software, the menu-names of items are obscure, non descriptive. What would be better would be for the menu names or popups to say "Export Site Setup settings" and "Import Site Setup settings"

Make sure your network connection is active and try again

There's some info on your error message number in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting

TS2972 One of my computers is working but the other one isn't

One of my computers is working but the other one isn't, so it isn't a network problem. I've restarted iTunes, logged out and logged back into home share and the library still isn't coming up. What's the problem and what should I do?

PS It worked before and I managed to copy 1000 songs but now its stopped working.

Can somebody help me in finding a solution or an explanation to the problem I am currently experiencing as well as others wherein we cannot connect to the iTunes store (iTunes could not connect to the store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004))?

Can somebody help me in finding a solution or an explanation to the problem I am currently experiencing as well as others wherein we cannot connect to the iTunes store. An error message appears and either says "iTunes could not connect to the store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004). Make sure your network connection is active and try again" or "iTunes could not connect to the store.Make sure your network connection is active and try again." Despite the fact that my network connection is working quite fine, this problem still persists. I can say that my connection is fine because I can surf the internet and furthermore, I used to connect to the iTunes store just before this incident happened which started from April 17, 2014 and persists until today. I tried to solve the problem by following the troubleshoot procedures given in the support section of this site but it really did not solve the problem. I believe that others are experiencing this situation as well very similar to mine when it comes to the time of occurrence as I have read in the discussions in this site. Even though we have different network connections, operating systems and other specifications, we still experience the same problem, so is there really a problem with our computers or is it with the iTunes? And by the way, my computer works under Windows XP. Thanks a lot. God bless.

Try this...
Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
cmd /k netsh winsock reset
Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
You should get something similar to this:
Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

ITunes could not connect to the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (OxE8000001)

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere but I don't have the nerves to read through thousands of "I've got the same problem too" replies. I do not care whether anyone has the same problem. So if you don't have any solution do not post! I'm not being rude, I'd just keep this discussion as accessible for other readers as possible. Besides, shouting "me too" doesn't really help anyone. Thank you.
Here's my problem, I sync my iPhone via iTunes 10.5.2, which works fine but after a while it prompts with an error message "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (OxE8000001)". This error message will not disappear and I have to force shut-down iTunes. It works OK for a while after re-start but the error comes back after a while. It is a very annoying little problem because I was waiting for WIFI syncing for so long and now it doesn't work properly
Any ideas how to remedy this?

Did you try the solutions mentioned in this article? iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting

2 of my movies are no longer working in my iTunes or on my iPod Touch, One doesn't play at all and the other gets to about 29:00 than stops working and I don't want to buy them again. What's happening?

2 of my movies are no longer working in my iTunes or on my iPod Touch, One doesn't play at all and the other gets to about 29:00 than stops working and I don't want to buy them again. Then also when I added a non-iTunes movie and tried to have iTunes make an iPod/IPhone version it gave me error -4. What's happening to my movies?

I also have to add that the right earbud only doesn't work on my phone while i'm listening to music. If I'm face timing it's okay. what the heck.
