Preview Browser looks great, but it's a mess on the web

Hello,
I'm a novice dreamweaver girl, and just uploaded my site. I
did it with a template I designed, and when I preview it in
dreamweaver using firefox or internet explorer, it looks how I
hoped it would. But when I type in the url, the site is not at all
what it looks like in the preview. For example, in the preview, I
have a widget menu that's small and on the left side, but on the
web, the menu goes horizontally across the whole screen. Also, in
the preview, there are photos going down the right side of the
page, but on the web, the photos and the text come one after
another, with large amounts of space.
My basic questions are:
1. What am I doing wrong?
2. Why does the preview look okay and different from the web?
3. Does this have something to do with the template I used?
Thanks! Any advice would be appreciated!

Post a link to the page, please.

  • What are the best instagram video settings using Compressor 4?  The outputs I have created look clean HD in camera roll.  When I view video in instagram preview it looks great, but then when i post it the quality gets blurry. Any advice?

    I have read that you should resize the frame to 640 by 640 or 1000 x 1000, and have tried both.  I shot the footage on canon 70d using 720p60fps, and edited the footage with iMovie.  Its been frustrating to see the finished product look great on iPhone, iPad, or mac but once i post the video- the quality gets blurry when you focus on the faces that are in focus.  My footage is basketball action shots from a high school game.  Any advice would be huge, I been looking for an answer to this for a month. 

    Simple export a ProRes 422 file, upload that by itself.  Facebook, Vimeo, YoutTube, etc, all compress the video themselves.  So don't compress it first, just upload it and let them do their own compression.

  • VirtualBench looks greate but it would be nice if the scope were 12 bit instead.

    The virtual bench hardware concept is awesome.   The price is right and the mix of hardware is perfect ( a small switch matrix would be a cool addition) but my only real complaint is the scope - it would be nice if it were 10-12 bit instead.   I would definitely pay an additional $500-1000 for the additional resolution.   The rest of the specs are great.

    We have been using LeCroy 12 bit scopes.  Most scopes I've seen are 8 bit.   We do a lot of small signal stuff (mV).   Differential probes can be used to amplify but we have found that extra resolution works better.   Most of the time we are analog and we really don't need speed just resolution.  I would settle for 10 bt but after having used  12 bit scope I don't think I would settle for an 8 bit scope.
    I'll have to give LeCroy a look one of these days then.  I'm a fan of Tekronix scopes.  I'm sure they have 12 bit as well, but are likely more expensive than I would want to spend for my setups.
    As far as the DMM, I've been spoiled by the PXI-4072 for far too long to want to go down to a 5 1/2 digit DMM.  Of course, the PXI-4072 also costs $800+ more than the Virtual Bench.  Might be worth the hit.

  • My photos looked great but when I made a book they all appeared to be corrupted in the pdf preview?

    My photos looked great but when I made a book  in iphoto 09 they all appeared to be corrupted in the pdf preview? There is a white triangular shape with random  horizontal lines running through each photo in the ibook preview.  Took it to the Genius bar, after a week of fooling with it including wiping it clean and resinstalling the OS the same thing happens.

    A LOT of them dont appear.
    What do you see in the window when you click on those?  A blank, black window?  An exclamation mark?  What?

  • When trying to import music files I get a error message that says "importer reported a generic error" I'm using windows 7, DellPC, installed premiere elements 13 2 days ago. Also when previewing and editing video,screen looks great but when I transfer to

    When trying to import music files I get an error message Thea says "importer reported a generic error". Also when editing video, screen views look great but when I transfer to PC or flash drive video quality is very poor. Any suggestions?

    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 (presumed 64 bit).....
    1. Music files and error message...are these music files from iTunes? If so, convert them to .wav in iTunes to convert them to wav version, and then import the .wav version into Premiere Elements 13 project using Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace's Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets from where you drag the wav version to the Soundtrack.
    The following are the instructions for the iTunes converting
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1550
    If any problems with the instructions, please let me know, and I will go through them with you.
    2. How you set up the project and the export settings that you select greatly influence your end product result.
    a. What are the properties of the source media?
    b. What project preset did you (manually) or the project (automatically) set to match the properties of the source media.
    (If you do not know, please tell us what you see for the readings of Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, Pixel Aspect Ratio - even
    if the fields look grayed out.)
    c. For your export...Publish+Share/Computer/and then what? And what preset? Did you use the default settings of the preset or did you
    customize the export settings of the preset under the preset's Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thanks.

  • MacBook Pro Retina - Images in PS look great, but when uploaded to web too big and distorted

    Part of the reason I hated using my Mac for graphic and web design is that when I create images in adobe photoshop everything looks amazing. However, when I upload them to the web, they are way too big and look distorted, this includes text.
    I'm trying to make a text logo with a transparent background. When I create it in photoshop the size I want it looks fine and clear, but once it's uploaded to the web it looks way too big and the font is blurred. How can I fix this? I use the Adobe Cloud, so I have the latest version.

    No sir, I'm still trying to figure out how to fix it
    Here is what it looks like in photoshop :
    then to see what it looks like in the browser, go to http://enigmadesigns.boards.net
    This preview in the thread was taken with my cell phone as I don't know how to screenshot on  a Mac yet LOL

  • I am in Muse 2014.3. When I edit a page, in the preview everything looks fine, but when I upload it to FTP, the page does not change, even when I upload the whole site. Is this a bug? I don't know what to do.

    Hi Jaap,
    Are you sure about your FTP credentials (FTP folder and site URL) that you are using for the upload? Are you able to see the updated files in the remote directory of the FTP server, after you finish uploading the muse file, using an external FTP client like FileZilla?
    Thanks

  • I successfully downloaded Lightroom CC. everything looks good, but it will not open. The circle spins about 2 times and then it just stops and I get nothing. I uninstalled and restarted my computer. I downloaded again. Same problem

    I successfully downloaded Lightroom CC. everything looks good, but it will not open. The circle spins about 2 times and then it just stops and I get nothing. I uninstalled and restarted my computer. I downloaded again. Same problem

    Have you tried logging out of your CC desktop app, then logging back in again? Quit/Restart won't work, but logging out and back in should. See here: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/sign-in-out-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

  • Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
    You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine.  You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
    That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
    You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
    You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)

  • I uploaded last release of CC (05/28/2014) but it did a mess on the entire pc: when I launched Photoshop it appeared a driver error on my graphic hardware; internet stopped to work and photoshop itself didn't respond.

    Hi, this morning I installed last upgrade of CC (05/28/2014) but it did a mess on the entire pc: when I launched Photoshop it appeared a driver error on my graphic hardware (I checked, everything was up to date nd correctly working) and Photoshop didn't respond; internet stopped to work too.
    The only way was to uninstall The CC App and create a restore point after uninstalling  (It wasn't possible restore a previous one BEFORE the upgrade of this morning....)
    My Processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4500U CPU @ GHz  2.40 GHz
    RAM is 8GB
    What do I have to do?
    Reinstall it without upgrading it?
    I would really appreciate that upgrades would be tested before being released.... -_-

  • Have just loaded Safari 5.1.  4 times.  It presents a blank page but will not load anything from the web.

    Have just loaded Safari 5.1.  4 times.  It presents a blank page but will not load anything from the web.   What do I have to do to get it to work.   It worked fine until the update was offered.

    Funny thing, even this page was loaded and then quickly turned blank for me (I'm writing from Chrome).
    Hope they fix it soon!

  • JavaFX: looks great, but why not integrated in Java?

    I browsed some JavaFX tutorials, read some articles and played with JavaFXPad. JavaFx looks great!
    I did this because I heard about this new scripting language with tight Java integration. JavaFXPad and some others tools using JavaFx are written in Java. So why do we need a separate JavaFX interpreter/tool? I hoped to write some nice JavaFXScripts and just call them on all our computers that already have the Java 1.6 JRE installed.
    Or is JavaFX just bleeding edge and is planned to be integrated in future JREs?

    > 3rd party external "virtual machine".
    Didn't bother read the link, did you? Don't bother answering that. I know you didn't because the very first sentence on the very first page tells you that Groovy is built for the JVM.
    Oh, and regards to "third party external"...
    http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/results?id=2490
    > Perhaps some day JavaFX Script will find its way into the JRE ...
    Groovy's already there. Groovy scripts are compiled to bytecode and run on the JVM. I recommend actually reading the link. You might accidentally learn something. ;o)

  • Photo's sharpened in LR4 look great but terrible when exported.

    What am I doing wrong?
    I start with a great photo, it doesn't need much sharpening, just a bit to make it pop. It looks great in LR (photo is RAW) but then when I export it as a full sized Jpeg and put it into Blurb (because I'm making a photo album) it looks terrible. Strands of hair kind of look like dotted lines rather than smooth strands of hair and the edges of things look all pixilated. It didn't in LR even when magnified.
    I've tried chaning my output sharpening to low.
    I went back into LR and removed all sharpening (which makes the photo now look a little 'soft') and re-imported it and it looks much better but it no longer has that real beautiful sharp look like it did in LR.
    How can I keep that sharp look?
    Thanks.

    How would I get one of the pages into a file to print locally? I thought the Blurb pages were kind of stuck within their software so that even when I export the person printing would have to have Blurb software or something?
    Hope that makes sense. I'd like to be able to do this just not sure how to go about it.
    Thanks.
    This whole discussion has been on the basis that you are usinf Blurb's Booksmart, yes?
    If so, Booksmart>File>Print is the Blurb recommended way of locally proofing your book. By default it will print the whole book on whatever printer you have set up, but the print dialogue gives you the option under 'Print Range' to select select 'Pages' and one or more  page numbers to limit the trial print to just one page.
    Being curious, and having a wet morning to spare, I did a bit of playing around, and I think I have established to my complete satisfaction that these artifacts are purely a result of Booksmart scaling the image whilst in edit mode. I exported a jpeg at various sizes and with a variety of output sharpening options, and none of these displayed any visible artifacts when displayed in a variety of Windows viewing programs. I then imported these into Booksmart and placed them onto pages with a number of different sized image containers. Some of these showed jpeg artifacts, and some didn't but there was no apparent correlation to the original sizes or sharpening.
    I then zoomed the Booksmart page using the slider at the bottom of the screen, and the artifacts increased / decreased / vanished as I did so, on all of the different pages, demonstrating that they were a function of Booksmart's scaling. I then printed one of the pages that was showing quite bad artifacts (using the technique above) and it was perfect!
    The two images below show the same page at different zoom levels, with and without artifacts. (I don't know if this is going to work, because when I insert them into this message, they are re-scaled and both display artifacts - let's see wehat they look like when posted?).
    Anyway - I'm confident that the case is proven!

  • If I rest my chin on the desk, the display looks great, but...

    that's not a very comfortable way to work. I just bought this mbp 13" day before yesterday. It's the glossy display.
    It's way too bright. burns right thru text. My ical is almost unreadable. So I tried adjusting the brightness and contrast. Doesn't work. If I open it up to the max, tho, and get my eyes level with the keyboard it looks great. Are they ALL like this? Is there anything I can do?

    Some manufacturers seem to think brighter screens mean better screens, which to some extent is correct, however, the brightness I experienced with my original MBP C2D 15" was painful, it also helped show of the grainy/ shimmery effect quite beyond belief, inducing eye strain within minutes and migraine within 20 minutes use.
    The 17" MBP I have now still has a bright screen, but nowhere near as bright as the 15". Bright enough, not grainy / shimmery.
    Just goes to show occassionally, even Apple can get something right
