Open a Recent Item

My "Open a Recent Item" list contains files that I no longer
have available. How can I purge or syncronize this list?

Dreamweaver CS4 Clear the "Open a Recent Item" window
***** But you must be in the user profile that you created the website with or you will not see the Recent list folder in the registry !!!!!
***** you will have registry rights to Delete files that user created.
**** If you do not have authority, you must find the user profile as an Administrator.
Click Start
then RUN
type REGEDIT in the run box
then in the registry got to,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
    Software

There will be a "Recent File List" you can delete all the files inside of it.

How do I purge items in "Open a Recent Item" Dreamweaver CS6?

How do I purge the list of files under "Open a Recent Item" DW Cs6 Opening Screen?

Hello,
you can do that, BUT DW starts - in my German DW at least - with a blank screen except the menu bar.
You have to take away the checkmark in this way (translated from my German DW): > edit (Bearbeiten) > settings (Voreinstellungen) > generally (Allgemein) > document options (Dokumentoptionen) > show welcome screen (Begrüßungsbildschirm anzeigen) > see screenshot)
I for my part don't remove it, I see it as a good thing to be able to open the last files by a simple cklick e.g.

Removing items from "open a recent item" list

Hi,
I deleted some files in dreamweaver cs5, but they still appear in "Open a recent item",
how can I remove them from the list?
Thanks for any help
David

Windows or Mac?
On Windows, it's a setting in the Windows registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\Recent File List
Select each file, right-click and select Delete.
Alternatively, just open up to 9 legitimate files in DW and let the list update itself.

Why eliminate it? It doesn't require any extra clicks.
The Startup page can be handy to return to documents you have
been working
on, creating new documents and many other features. If you
don't need it
just click on what you do need; .
If you insist, you can put a checkmark in "Don't show again"

Open a Recent Item. How To clear it.

Deleting "open a recent item" files

The screen that appears when you first open Dreamweaver 8 has
a list on the left that allows you to open a recent item. The ones
that are currently listed on my computer are no longer valid and I
would like to clear them. I have not been able to figure out a way
to do this so any help is appreciated - Thanks!

The recent files list is in the Registry of your computer.
If you just ignore the "no longer valid" list and keep
working with newer files, the newer file names will replace the
older ones.
If you still want to mess around with things, and you're
comfortable editing the registry values.
start> run
Type in : regedit
In the console that opens
HKEY_CURRENT_USER> Software> Macromedia>
Dreamweaver> Recent File List
I would strongly recommend against messing around with the
registry values unless you're absolutely sure about what you're
doing.

I cannot open a recent item. Is it lost forever?

I had an important document that my MacBook autosaved for me, so I opened the autosaved version and began editing it extensively, after finalizing it I (stupidly) saved it under the same autosave name. Now my document folder is only displaying the original version of the document and the autosaved version is not in the folder and does not come up as option when I search for it in the finder. I figured all hope was lost until I clicked on my apple "recent items" menu and there it is!...but i can click on it all day and it doesn't open. Is there anything I can do? (It is a TextEdit doc file) -Cal

Perhaps you can find a more up-to-date version in Time Machine?

DW8-Open a Recent Item Screen?

Last on the list of recently opened items is a (folder) Open. If I click on open it takes me to C/drive Documents where I have downloaded an entire website from my Cpanel. Unzipped it and listed it in Documents. I click on the folder in documents and then click on Open to open it in DW8. It will not move...nothing happens? This specific website will not transfer? This works for some other 18 websites, but not this particular one? What am I doing wrong?

Yes, it is a holiday week, but I need a wizard of oz to help. Please?

How do I open multiple history items and restore my last session from more than the last day

I see I can open 1 history item ant a time how can I open more than 1 if my browser crashed or was force quitted. Also is there a way to open previous items from before I day if I lunch safari and don't open my recent items using history.

From your Safari menu bar. Click History / Reopen all windows from last session.
If Safari is quitting unexpectedly, try resetting Safari. From the menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
If that doesn't help, If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash information.
Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.

Recent items are missing when I do a four finger expose swipe or two finger tap on icon

Hi,
I used to be able to do a four finger down swipe when in an app which would show any app windows open plus recent items underneath. I'm currently getting the windows showing but no recent items. This goes for any app. I haven't changed anything. I haven't cleared the list either. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello Toraishikuru,
That feature you are describing is called Spaces. What the does is help you organize your workflow. For instance, my workflow is that have Safari in one space and then I have Mail in another so that they are not on top of each other. If you want to remove spaces that you are not using, then open Mission Control and you will see a section towards the top, move you mouse over one of them and click on the X that shows up in the right hand corner of that window. Take a look at the article below for more information.

Lost Recent items list in FW

I successfully upgraded FW to 11.1.0.205 some time ago (when I upgraded CS5 to CS5.5), but I've been experiencing a couple strange behaviors ever since. I'm on a pc using Vista.
(1) FW now requires admin permission whenever I launch it. No other program in the suite does that. It's an annoyance that I can live with, but would rather not have to click CONTINUE every time. I tried setting the program to run as Administrator, but it made no difference.
(2) The most annoying issue is that 'Open a Recent item' list is empty every time. Oh it retains my list if i don't shut off my computer. But if I do shut down my computer, FW's recent item list is empty at the next launch. I used to use this feature a lot for picking up where I left off the day before. Now I have to not only search for the document, but also seek the drive and folder since that information is not retained either.
Is there a solution to either of these problems? Maybe they are related.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

AFAIK, it's the norm. Recent documents only displays ones previously opened, not their current status or whether they still exist.

Getting "open recent" items and "open documents" from an application

How do I ask Textedit (if running) for the list of documents currently open?
How do I ask Textedit (if running ) for the list of "open recent" items?
Thank you

Thank you. This does the job for "opened documents" in TextEdit and other applications. I wish there were a similar method for "open recent" items. Each application (TextEdit, BBEdit etc) seems to handle the "open recent" items in its own way!
Thank you again.

Open Recent Items List

The names of the files in the "Open recent Items" list are
being shown in an Asian Character set.
Is there a way to reset this to a traditional Western
font?

How can I remove items from the "Open a Recent File" menue. Many other applications allow the clearing of that file . Is this possible in Adobe Reader 10.1.2 ? If so how?

And... did you do what the message tells you?

Nothing to do with the download; you need to open Adobe Reader once after the install is complete, and accept the EULA.

Preview doesn't show 'open recent' items

When Preview is open, File-->Open Recent shows only 'clear recent'. Checking all different values for 'recent items' in System Preferences makes no difference in Preview. Some other apps work with 'Open Recent' (eg Pages) but not all (eg TextEdit behaves as Preview). Anybody see something similar, or know a fix? Thanks!

Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.
