Preview in Browser button is gon

I'm not sure what happened, but the globe symbol for the
preview in browser button is gone from the document toolbar in
Dreamweaver 8. I haven't really seen this on the forum.
Please understand, preview in browser works fine if I go to
it through the File menu. But the button is missing from the
toolbar, and really, that's where I spend the most time.
Thanks!

Have you installed any extensions recently?

Preview in browser is not working in Bridge CS6. There also does not seem to be an option to change browsers.

I am trying to create a web gallery in CS6. I have done this before in Photoshop with CS3, but now that it has changed to bridge it doesn't seem to work for me. There is no preview option within Bridge which is a bit frustrating, but I at least have the "preview in browser" options. Except, when I hit "preview in browser", my browser opens but it just opens to the current window open - I am not getting a preview at all. The only way I can seem to preview is to save the file, then open it in the browser - but this way I cannot play with the various settings and I am finding it very frustrating.
There should be a way in Bridge to change the default browser. Perhaps my browser settings are not allowing it to open, however, I cannot find an option to switch it open in another browser... also very frustrating.
This extremely simple web gallery creator, which I have used easily in CS3, seems to be less user friendly in Bridge.
Any ideas on how to change browsers or fix the browser I am currently using to use the "preview in browser" button?

Preview in Browser - IE6 - not loading

Has anyone had problems getting DW8 Previewing in IE6.
I have for sometime just lived with the problem - opening IE6
outside
of DW8 - but it's much easier just to click the Preview in
Browser
button.
I have set up the browsers in Edit Browser List - but IE just
refuses
to start.
I have Firefox & Opera working normally using this method
- it's just
IE6 not being started up.
One other clue - if the Preview in temporary file is enabled
- IE
loads. If Preview in temporary file is NOT enabled - IE does
not
load.
I like to use no temporay file at times - so the problem is a
real
pain at times.

HT5361 When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

Preview in Browser gone

Adobe went and changed on me in mid-project. It is much more difficult to switch from code to design, I can't find where to enter Titles on a page, and my Preview in Browser totally went away. Anyone know where it is located now?

Found it! Sorry, guys. It is under File.

Will not display images in preview in browse

Hello:
I am new to fireworks and am attempting to make a simple pop up menu but am having trouble viewing the image. First, I converted a .jpeg image to a button. I then put menu pop-up functions on this button. When I displayed it in preview with browser, the pop-up images displayed, but there was an "x'd" out image where the original should have been.
I was curious about why this was, figured that there was a problem with the file that I imported, and so I decided to just use one of the library's buttons. Again - the original button was "x'd" out but the pup-up functions displayed.
I therefore decided to go even more basic and simply painted an image gray and attempted to preview in browser. Again, "x'd" out image.
Can someone please tell me how to fix this?? It is driving me INSANE!!!!
The crazy thing is that earlier this morning, everything was working just fine. The images would display perfectly. Now, they are gone and I am at witt's end trying to figure out what the heck is going on.
If ANYONE could please help me, I would be in such gratitude.
Thanks
Ben (noob to web design)

If you think you're insane now, try maintaining those pop up menus.
As far as I know, these menus have not been updated since FW 8, so
they are at least two versions old.
Save yourself a lot of grief by avoiding those menus. There are many
other products on the market which do a much better job of creating
and maintaining this type of navigation structure.
Read this link before you climb any higher on this slippery slope:
http://apptools.com/rants/jsmenu.php
There was another blog post by the fellow who originally wrote the pop
up menu feature, but I can't seem to locate it. Even he says stay away
from them.
Not the answer you probably want, but I hope it helps, nonetheless.

Preview in Browser Save/Put Options?

Hi folks,
I have what seems like a simple problem - new in this second
website I am started in my Dreamweaver. I used to be able to hit
the F12 button, be asked if I wanted to save, and said yes - no
message about "putting" and no blue arrows happily streaming across
in small box...Now, it seems I cannot escape the "Putting" function
if I want to preview? I have gone to Preferences, and checked and
unchecked the box about about that (I think) with no difference, it
just seems faster if the box is checked!
Wondering how I can just preview an ordinary HTML file in
browser locally? It is unnerving to experiment on your page, and go
to preview it, if it is going to be "put' and the "experiment" is
now out on the web?
Thanks for any ideas!
Carol

Try setting Access to None.
Now, please tell me again the details of your symptoms? You
preview, and DW
tries to connect to a remote site? (this is the problem with
hijacking a
thread - it's best to start a new thread).

Preview in Browser and Adobe Browser Lab show website differently? Please help

Hi...working on my first website and I have a question about the differences in viewing the site through
choosing file...preview in browser....
from within Dreamweaver, and using the Adobe Browser Lab to view the website.
There seems to be a very significant difference between the two. When I preview firefox from within dreamweaver, my site is just how I want it.
When I go to browser lab, it is...well... a disaster.
I'm attaching screenshots of the two as well as my code, so it can show how different they are. Here is a screenshot of the website as it looks when I use the preview in browser function from within dreamweaver to view it in firefox. This is how I'd like it to look.
And here is a screenshot of what it looks like when I preview it in Adobe Browser Lab in Firefox.
The quote is underneath the logo, the left div text is flowing over the center div, the nav bar graphics are too narrow, the photo is hanging outside the div it should be contained in. Not what I want.
Does anyone have any insight into how I would fix this or which version is correct?
I'm stumped. This is my first website: shouldn't these two things be similar? And which one is correct?
and here is my code:

Thanks for your help.

You are using % widths for your layout which means it will look different depending of the size of each users monitor. Although this is probably the better way to go these days, it is not one size fits all and will work more effectively if you include min and max widths, and also media queries that change your layout depending on the monitor size. This is more advanced coding and will take time if you want to do that. Alternatively, you could design using pixel widths and have it look consistent across all desktop browsers and throw a few media queries in for the mobile side.

Is there a way to use the preview in browser function without an Internet connection?

This morning our cable modem was down and I was making some changes to a page in a Muse site I'm designing. I wanted to preview the changes in a browser, but when I clicked on the Preview button (or clicked on preview in browser), I received a notification that it was checking for an Internet connection and the preview page never completed. Is there a way to use the preview in browser function in Muse without an Internet connection?

Thanks for getting back to me! When our cable modem went down, we were still connected to Airport Base Station, and perhaps it appeared to Muse that we did have an Internet connection. In any case, we have now received a new cable modem and our network is working again. As you suggested, I disconnected from the network and tried preview in Muse again, and now it seems to be working just fine. Perhaps it was just the circumstances of our network problem this morning. Good to know I can use the Muse Preview function off-line!

Preview in browser not funtioning

Nothing is happening the preview in browser/debug button on the document tool bar pressed. I have several browser options loaded, the only one working is the ABL (Adobe BrowserLab) tool. Has anyone else experienced this before?
Thank you!

Which browsers have you assigned for the preview function?

Can not add Google in Preview in Browser Window

Hi
I have just started usning DW 13.2 CC on win7. In Preferences>Preview in Browser> Help, OK, Cancel Buttons are missing. Only + - Buttons are visible. I followed to next window and added Name and pointed to .exe file it took me back to <Preview in Browser> Help, OK, Cancel Buttons are missing. So how do I add Google?

Not sure what the OK and Cancel buttons are, but by using the following procedure, you will be able to add your favourite browser.
To add a browser to the list, click the Plus button, complete the Add Browser dialog box, and then click OK.
To delete a browser from the list, select the browser, and then click the Minus button.
To change settings for a selected browser, click the Edit button, make changes in the Edit Browser dialog box, and then click OK.
Select the Primary Browser or the Secondary Browser option to specify whether the selected browser is the primary or secondary browser. F12 (Windows) or Option+F12 (Macintosh) opens the primary browser; Control+F12 (Windows) or Command+F12 (Macintosh) opens the secondary browser.
Select Preview Usin
Select File > Preview In Browser > Edit Browser List.
Select Preview Using Temporary File to create a temporary copy for previewing and server debugging. (Deselect this option if you want to update the document directly.)
Please ignore the images of the plus and minus buttons, these are courtesy of this forum and has zilch to do with DW

Preview in browser - Firefox / File not found

Specs:
OS X 10.4.7
Dreamweaver 8.0.2
Firefox 1.5.0.1
I (and my whole office) am having a major problem. We all
work directly from files on our osx server. When working in
Dreamweaver and trying to "Preview in browser" with Firefox 1.5 we
get a "File not found" error. The problem seems to be stemming from
the path lacking the "Volumes" part of the directory.
For example:
When I preview in Safari the path is shown as:
file:///Volumes/Server_HD/Website_Folder/index.html (this
works)
But on Firefox or Mozilla I get:
file:///Server_HD/Website_Folder/index.html (this does not
work)
This problem did not occur in previous versions of Firefox.
Due do this problem, I have virtually eliminated Firefox as part of
my workflow in favor of Safari. I would love to return to Firefox
can anybody please help me!?

Can you try again please, although not in a narrative? Just
go to the
ADVANCED tab on the Site Definition panel, and list the
contents of the
fields you see for Local, Remote, and Testing Categories (no
need for the
login info).

The private browsing option is gone from the tools menu, the one in the file menu dosn't work the same.

Firefox updated itself this morning to 20. The option to start private browsing in the tools menu is gone. The one in the file menu is not the same, it works differently. I would really like to no how to re enable this feature. I always have a lot of tabs up. When I feel so inclined I would hit the private browse button then close. When I would reopen all my tabs would be there. this is but one example of how I used private browsing. If you could help me with this problem I would be very happy. Thank You for your time and support.

Hello, when you start the new private browsing, starts in a new Private Window, and you first window it is exist also.
If you close the private browsing window, your first window exist, but if you close the browser you must set it to '''Show my windows and tabs from last time''' (in Options > General panel > start up) :, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/startup-home-page-download-settings#w_startup Startup] to see again your tabs and windows when you start firefox.
thank you

HOW DO I GET BROWSERLAB TO APPEAR IN "PREVIEW IN BROWSER"?

I HAD TO RE-INSTALL DREAMWEAVER. THE BROWSER LAB DISAPPEARED FROM THE "PREVIEW IN BROWSER" OPTION. I RE-DOWNLOADED THE PREFERENCE EXTENSIONS. I CAN ACCESS THE ADOBE BROWSER LAB FROM SAFARI, BUT NOT FROM WITHIN DREAMWEAVER. SUGGESTIONS?

Are you using Dreamweaver CS4 or CS5? If you're using CS5, please make sure everything is up to date by going to Help->Updates...
If you're using CS4, make sure to download the latest extensions from here: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?searchfield=BrowserLab &search_exchange=&num=25&startnum=1&event=search&sort=0&interim_dummy_ tmpfield=&Submit=
Once you're sure you're all up to date, I think you should see the Preview in Browser option. But if you don't, you should be able to go to Window->Extensions and select the Adobe BrowserLab option which should make the BrowserLab panel appear inside Dreamweaver. From there you can choose Local or Network previews and click the Preview button to view your screenshots in BrowserLab.
Please let us know if this works for you. Thanks,
Mark
