Really weird problem setting up FTP in Dreamweaver MX 2004 for Mac.

I'm new to Dreamweaver for all that I've had it for years. Been using GoLive. Using Dreamweaver that is part of Studio MX 2004. I'm trying to set up FTP. Tell Dreamweaver to Create New Dreamweaver Site. Name the site. Don't use server technology. Pick the folder where I want my files. Tell it I want to use FTP to connect to my server. Give it the name of the host server. Tell it which folder I want to use for my files on the server. Here's where it gets interesting:
When I type the url for the folder in the field, as I type "html" it draws a strike through the "l" in "html".
I've tried typing the url in Text Edit, then copy and paste into the field. I get the same result as if I had just typed it in the field.
Deleted and re-installed Dreamweaver by itself. No difference.
Deleted and re-installed everything associated with Studio MX 2004. No difference.
Ran TechTool to see if there might be a disk problem but that came back fine. Have not run my anti-virus, ClamXav, yet. Don't have any anti-spyware software.
Running Mac OS 10.4.11 on an iMac G5 iSight.
I know just how oddball this problem sounds and I realize that I could use Fetch or Cyberduck but I would like my software to work. Anybody have any ideas?

Wiped and re-installed my computer. Now that part of Dreamweaver works. Some bug somewhere that's now been eliminated. Now it has a new problem that I will ask about in a new thread.

Really, really weird problem involving iPhone and Exposé

Hey Mac users, try to figure this one out, this started happening to me today:
My iPhone is rarely near my Mac Pro, but today I set it on top of my Mac Pro to let it charge. When it's connected to the Edge network, and there's network activity, I get the usual "beepbeepbeep" through my system's speakers, except now there's a twist. Whenever I hear the network activity interference, Exposé on my Mac Pro flips out, and acts as if I pushed the "Show/Hide Desktop" button a whole bunch of times. It stops when the activity stops.
It's not reproducible all the time, and only happens every once in a while. But it definitely only happens during Edge network activity. I've never gotten it while in 3G or Wifi modes.
I am guessing that the Edge signal is interfering with my Apple Bluetooth Keyboard, or something. I don't have any keys mapped to "Show Desktop," though.
If anyone has any thoughts on this, I'd love to hear it. This isn't a really big problem, I just keep my phone away from my Mac Pro now.

If you go into settings - general - about it will give you the version, the latest one is 2.0.1. Updating your phone may solve the problems. Failing that, take it to your nearest Apple store for advice.

Really weird problem -- won't download mail from one sender

I'm having a really weird problem. Apple Mail won't retrieve mail from my Gmail account via POP3 from one sender only. All other mail is downloaded normally, except from a particular sender. What could be causing this? Thanks.

I am trying to remember and research something about the Junk filter and Gmail accounts. Have you checked in your Junk mailbox, if Junk in enabled and there is a separate Junk mailbox?
If you click on my name to the left, and look in the bio line of the resulting Profile, you will find an email address you can reach me with. If you email me at that address, I will send you a Gmail address that your sender can test sending a message to me at my Gmail account.

Uninstalled Dreamweaver CC trial for Mac - How to Reinstall

I uninstalled my Dreamweaver CC trial for Mac immediately after downloading the trial because I had problems opening the application. After reinstalling the trial of Dreamweaver, the application still will not open. Did my trial expire after I uninstalled Dreaweaver? Is there a way I can start up my trial of Dreamweaver again being that it is still within the trial period? Thank you for your help.

From my experience I get a dialog box that requires me to install Java SE 6 Runtine, from Mac's Software Update (seperate from what Oracle provides on java.com). On recent OS X versions, Java SE 6 Runtime no longer comes OS X preinstalled.
When you have Java 7 installed and launch Dreamweaver, you may not have a dialog box prompt you to install anything when launching Dreamweaver. However, Dreamweaver relies on an older version so we need to manually download and install it.
You can download and install the required Java SE 6 Runtime for OS X from Apple's website.
After you install it, give it another go (you may need to restart) and it should load up like the other CC Apps.
If it still doesn't work, it's more than likely another issue.

I don't have the extract option in my version of Dreamweaver CC 2014 for Mac

I just installed Dreamweaver CC 2014 for Mac it and I don't have the "Extract" option anywhere. It doesn't appear in the Window menu, and pressing cmd+K doesn't do anything.
Any ideas??

Hi sugarjonnyo,
Extract was released in DW CC 2014.1 Oct release version. More details are available => Extract a Photoshop design into code | Adobe Dreamweaver CC tutorials
I believe you are at the previous version of DW.
thanks,

Really weird problem with Usage Tracking!

Hi guys
We are running OBIEE 11.1.1.6.5 on Exalytics and allmost all is fine and dandy. We have though one weird problem. When we first enabled usage tracking, we sudddenly got some errors on some of our dashboards, saying that we didn't have the privilegies to create temporary tables. Allright we got our user (which is a shared user) the privilegies to create temporary tables, and the reports with the problems started working again! Awesome! But low and behold - then Usage Tracking stopped working, not a single mentioning in the logfiles about it. Maybe an error or, the acknowledgement that Usage Tracking has started, which is the normal.
So basically we are running without Usage Tracking because the reports that gives us the problems are deemed more important... which they might be, but thats different story...
Any ideas to what is going on here? We have collected Usage Tracking data, while the reports were broke, so im quite confident that the setup is correct. But why would it stop, when giving "create table" privilege to our shared user?
Best regards, Jacob

What is the setting for UsageTrackingDirectInsert?
Have you tried chaging the output to file instead of database?
Please see:

Problem setting up FTP

I need some help setting up FTP. This may not be the right forum so feel free to redirect me.
It has been a while since I tried to set up an FTP service on my Mac, certainly before 10.4.11 and before I went to my new u-verse router. I have some basic TCP/IP knowledge but things just aren’t clicking for me. I have done all the things I have done before but now when I connect to the FTP server on the local network, FTP tells me I am in Extended Passive Mode. What IS extended passive mode and how do I get back to active (interactive) mode? I have read the man pages and the section on ftp in my UNIX handbook. The question may be to simple for the books to address but it is not simple enough for me to solve. The server is on 100bT and the client is on WiFi from the same router. After I get FTP working on the local net I can redirect the port on my router for incoming internet access.

Hi myplace,
In extended passive mode, the FTP server operates exactly the same as passive mode, however it only transmits the port number (not broken into high and low bytes) and the client is to assume that it connects to the same IP address that was originally connected to.

Problem with Signature tab drop down in Outlook for Mac 2011

I am setting up Outlook 2011 on my mac and have run across a problem with the signatures that I have been unable to resolve.
I have set up 2 signatures for my two different pop accounts and thought that if I defaulted them to their appropriate account they would automatically be seen in email when I had chosen the corresponding email account. I then discovered that it was not
possible to do this in Outlook 2011 for Mac.
So I selected NONE as the defaults for my two signatures, and thought I would be able to manually add the appropriate signature to each email as I compose or reply. BUT NO!!!! THE PROBLEM LIES BELOW:
The 2 signatures that I set up are visible in the drop down menu from the signature tab in an email, however they are greyed out and cannot be selected. I have attempted selecting one of these signatures as the default, and whichever one
I select dutifully appears when I compose a new email, but when I click on the drop down to change the signature, both are still greyed out.
So effectively, I only have the option of one signature or none, despite being able to set up multiple signatures in my profile.
Does anyone know why this is occurring and what the solution is?
Thanking you in advance.

Hi,
Please remove the Signature and re-add it back to check whether the issue persists. We can follow the articles below to create signature in Outlook 2011 for Mac:
How to create signature or customize it (add picture) in Outlook for Mac 2011
http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2455171/en-us
Add a signature automatically to every message
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/mac-outlook-help/add-a-signature-automatically-to-every-message-HA102928243.aspx
If the new created Signature is still greyed out in your Outlook, please restart the Outlook client in safe mode to confirm if the issue is caused by any third-party add-ins.
If the issue persists in Outlook safe mode, I suggest you ask a question in Outlook for Mac forum for further troubleshooting:

Problems with BBC iPlayer Desktop and Adobe Air for Mac

I would be grateful for anyone who can help me with a problem I have on my Laptop running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3.I am having difficulty running BBC iPlayer Desktop and I suspect it is caused by Adobe Air.
Recently I was prompted to update Adobe Air to the latest version (as of February 2012) and after I successfully updated the program, this began to cause problems when I used BBC iPlayer desktop.
The first problem I noticed was that I was unable to play any downloaded programmes in full screen - only the sound played, not the video.
Secondly, a few weeks after this problem began, all my TV programmes mysteriously disappeared.
My final problem is that everytime I launch BBC iPlayer it is unable to download new programmes - when I am connected to the internet, the application still says it is "offline".
I have tried to resolve the problem by restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling BBC iPlayer, disabling and re-enabling my firewall, connecting to the internet in different locations but this has not resolved the problem.
I tried to uninstall Adobe Air, but the installation package tells me it is 'corrupt'. So I tried to download and reinstall the application from the adobe website, but the computer already recognises that the app is installed. i.e. - I can't uninstall or reinstall Adobe Air.
I contacted BBC iPlayer support and they were unable to help - directing me to your website. I have read several other discussion topics posted on this website but not found the solution I am looking for.
Please can some help me to solve this problem, by helping me uninstall and reinstall Adobe Air for Mac?
I am not very technical minded - for example - I don't know what log files are or how to find them - so please explain it as simply as possible.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Ryan

Just had the same thing happen AGAIN. Suddenly - a blank iPlayer Desktop which failed to download new programmes. All previous programmes were still in the repository folder. This time the sequence I outlined previously didn't work.
What eventually got things working this time was to reinstall Adobe Air as part of the BBC iPlayer Desktop installation process - and not separately.
So:
a) Move iPlayer to trash.
b) Find and delete the following folder: Users/Yourname/Library/Preferences/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDBBD 723A6DA9D.1
c) Find and delete the following folder:
Users/Yourname/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR/ELS/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDB BD723A6DA9D.1
d) Find and delete the following folder:
Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository/cache
e) Find and run: Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller
f) Empty the Trash. I found that bits and pieces of BBC iPlayer were still running despite having been quit and dumped in the trash - and so it wouldn't allow me to complete this part. Restarted the computer, then empty the trash.
g) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository and rename it repository2
h) Reinstall iPlayer. It will tell you that you have no programmes to view. Quit the programme.
i) Find and delete the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository
j) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository2 and rename it to repository.
k) Relaunch iPlayer
It would be terribly nice if the BBC or Adobe stopped buggering about with this . . .

Font Problem in Mail after installation of Office 2008 for Mac

Since I installed my 2008 Office for Mac I have had occasional problems with the font display in IMail. Sometimes the fonts are just gibberish but will become readable again if/when I change the font sizing. Any suggestions? When I installed Office 2008 I had previously deleted the Trial Version of Office for Mac 2004 and the installer for Office 2008 did not find any prior Office installation.
Thanks

Download Font Nuke. Close all other applications you may have running.
Run Font Nuke and click on the "Nuke Font Caches" button at the upper left. The panel will fill with other choices. At the lower right, first click "Update Caches List". It will search your hard drive for font cache files and list them. The purpose being simply so you can see what is about to be removed. Click the "Nuke Font Caches" button at the bottom right. Your Mac will restart. Don't attempt to stop the restart. You should always restart immediately after removing any cache files.

Office 2004 for Mac update 11.3.0 problems

When I was notified by AutoUpdate that there was a new version of Office for Mac available (I have been using it for nearly three years), I followed instructions and after the download got the message: "The installer could not locate the correct version of the software required to install this update. See the Read Me file included with this installer to determine if your software meets the requirements for this update."
I reinstalled Office 2004 and then attempted to download and install the previous updates 11.2.0 and got the same message. The previous install had accepted 11.2.0, and I am now back at 11.0. Also, when I now activate Word, I get an error message "An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library." However, after clicking the OK button on this message, I can proceed and use Word normally. Do I have any real problems here?
Anyone with any ideas?

Back again. The Remove Office tool did its thing. I repaired permissions. Then reinstalled from CD. Then repaired permissions. Opened each element of Office once and closed it. Repaired permissions. Ran Microsoft AutoUpdate. Showed downloading 11.3.0 but would not do anything after download. The same messages as before came up. And I cannot comfortably find that Microsoft stuff in the Library. There is quite a bit of Microsoft file types in the Library and I left them alone.
Then went to Mactopia and downloaded the update. Got a .dmg on my desktop which I double-clicked. However it too provided the same message about installation.
I guess I could phone AppleCare (I have the contract) but I somehow have a feeling that this is not their problem as the program is from Microsoft.

Office 2004 for Mac:: Problems Importing Data from Windows

I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this but:
I am switching from Windows and Outlook 2003 and trying to move my data from Outlook into Entourage. I was somewhat successful using O2M to import my Contacts and E-Mail.j However O2M created a bunch of .ics files that I can’t seem to get into Entourage’s calendar.
I also have a lot of Outlook Notes and Tasks that I can’t seem to import or drag into Entourage’s Notes and Task windows.
Any suggestions? I didn’t think it would be so hard. You would think that Microsoft as the vendor of both programs would have provided a smoother method of moving data between their programs.
Thanks
Ben

Thanks for the response. I will check the site that you reference.
Just out of curiousity--why is this not a good place to ask this question? As a new user to the Apple/Mac community am I relegated to asking questions only about Apple hardware and software written only by Apple? One of the enticements for switching over to Apple from Windows, besides getting tired of having to be a technical wizard, were all the platitudes about how easy it is to switch. Well it isn't all that easy.
Don't get me wrong, I am loving my new MacBook Pro and I imagine once I get my Outlook data over to the Mac I will be really happy. But given that all my email, notes, tasks, calendar and contacts for years have been on my Windows machine I would have liked a little less hair pulling trying to get it over to my mac. It has not been clean and it hasn't been easy [over a week now].
Somehow I thought "Well I'm probably not the first person to be taking this route and where would I find the largest number of people who may have already gone before me and could offer directions/suggestions." I did do my research and based on the number of postings concluded that Office2004 for Mac was the best choice if I was using Outlook on Windows and needed to continue to use Word/Excel/Powerpoint with the rest of the business world. And it did appear from all the postings that a lot of people use this package.
Again, this is not meant to come off harsh, but it is a little off-putting to be told "This isn't the appropriate place for this question"
Thanks
