Site definition dialogue box CS5 categories will not expand to offer menu options

Using Windows 7, Dreamweaver CS5, site definition dialogue box will not respond when clicking categories on left of box in order to set up local info like asset folder etc.
Some machines at Uni have no problem with this but some do. Also, the same machine responds differently when logged on as an administrator or student or teacher.
Can you shed any light on what might be causing this problem, please?

Windows 7 security settings are precluding non-admin level users from writing data to certain files/folders used by DW CS5.
Solution:
Log-on as Administrator.

Site definition dialog box

I'm very new to Dreamweaver and am trying to bring in a website design that I did in photoshop. Trouble is, all the tutorials I see mention the Site Definition Wizard which is supposed to be accessible through the Site Definition Dialog Box. My understanding is that when it should come up when I go to Site, New SIte. Trouble is, I get a Site Setup dialog box instead and can't figure out how to get to the Wizard. Any advice?

Hi Julie,
That *is* the revamped Site Definition screen in CS5.
Site is for local settings
Servers is for your remote settings (FTP server, username, password etc)

Fireworks CS5.1 will not run for a specific user.

I am in the IT dept. of my organization and we have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 installed on many systems. On one particular system, we installed the CS5.5 Web Premium suite and when the end user (who is not an administrator on their workstation) started to use it, she found that Fireworks CS5.1 will not load. When she clicks on it to launch it, it starts to load, then she gets the spinning beachball and the application stops responding.
I created a local (non-AD) account on her machine with admin privileges, and when she logs into it, Fireworks immediately loads and works properly.
Our security rules do not allow users to operate as administrators on their workstations. So my question is - what can I do to get Fireworks to load and run properly for a standard user account?
Interestingly, all other CS5.5 apps seem to work just fine for her.

Have you tried giving the user administrative privileges?

CS5.5 will not open...

So I just re-installed CS5.5 on my computers, (clean install, I used Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool to remove any previous versions) and every other Adobe application opens except for Adobe Flash Professional, Adobe Flash Builder and Adobe Flash Catalyst.
I went into AppData and checked for fontinfo.txt, but because Flash never ran; it isn't there.
I also tried waiting for Flash to open, but whenever I wait, it closes itself.
** EDIT **
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 1
Intel Pentium CPU B950 @ 2.10GHz
6 GB of RAM
Anyone else having a problem with this?
Thanks in advance

I'm sorry, this is not an answer but another person with the same issue.
My Flash CS3 works fine, I have installed the trial Flash CC and it runs fine, but my Flash CS5.5 will not open either. I have tried similar things you have, all of my other CS5.5 programs open and after a lengthy Norton check it has not found a virus.
If anyone has found a resolution it would be greatly appreciated.
My Windows[7] 64bit log:

My text fields will not expand

I have a suggestion form that i created in adobe livecycle. The text fields will not expand when there is more text than what fits in the box. A scroll bar comes up when there is more text than what can fit, but this will not do. I have the 'expand to fit' checked and allow multiple lines. Any help?

Hi,
Have a look at this example of the process for making fields dynamic: http://assure.ly/g80MVY.
A couple of pointers:
The form will need to be saved as a Dynamic XML Form in the save-as dialog.
You should group objects that don't need to be flowed into a Positioned subform(s), as step 3 will move things around.
The page will need to be set to Flowed in the Object > Subform palette.
That should get you most of the way there.

My web browser will not expand past the dock? The dock is always showing.

Any screen I englarge will not expand past the dock. The screen just sits on top of the dock, instead of in front of the dock like it used to. I don't like to enable auto dock hiding either.

To my knowledge and IIRC no window ever went In Front of the Dock. I can go behind it if you drag that window down from the title area but it won't expand from the bottom to in front of or even in back of the Dock. And that is the way it should be. It won't cover the menu bar either.
If you want the app to go farther then set it into Full Screen Mode.

IPad 3 will not sync "no limit" email option on exchange server email.

I just purchased an iPad 3 updated to 5.1.1 software. My personal exchange email from my ISP will not download the "no limit" option. However I still have this email setup on my iPad 2 and i have removed/readded and it works no problem.
I have removed and reset up the email on the iPad 3 and still not working. Also I notice that if I choose 3 days it will sync, then choose "no limit" it will just stay at the 3 days, this is the same for all other options too.
Any ideas?

1. Reset iPad; hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo
2. Try another wall socket
3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
4. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
5. Clean Lightning port with compress air or new paint brush

Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them. When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears. Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.

Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them. When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears. Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand. I also cannot attach any of these pics into an e-mail or into any other file. I have already went through all 3 Repair options and when that did not solve it went through a complete Rebuild. Any Help?! Any Suggestions on how to fix this?! I have spent almost 2 days now going through all of the published help.
I have backups going back 6 months - I have not had the real need to check every album before - but - all of my backups also have this same problem.

The triangle with the ! indicates that the connection between the thumbnail and the orginal is missing - this can be caused by many things including database corruption and user action emoving the originals photos on urpose or by accident
If the database is corrupted then rebuilding is the solution - backup and depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your database -- if the iPhoto rebuild does not cure the problem then download iPhoto Library manager and use its rebuild command which creates a totally new library leaving the existing one untouched
If you have deleted the photos then you need to start over with a new library and import the photos you have not deleted into it
You can select one of the problem photos and use the reveal original in finder commander (file menu) to see if the original is there - if it is a finder window will open showing it

I just upgraded to Photoshop cs6 so that my new camera (Nikon D7100) would work in Camera Raw. However, it will not download from the "Update" option in CS6.

I just upgraded to Photoshop cs6 so that my new camera (Nikon D7100) would work in Camera Raw (I was told that the Camera Raw update 8.3, which is available for CS6, included this camera). However, it will not download from the "Update" option in CS6. I have tried over 10 times - it just says update is not working. and I cannot find an alternate way of downloading this file. So I still can use my camera, even thought I paid to upgrade. HELP please.

What OS do you have? You say you have explained what you had (computer/opsys) but I honestly don't see it here. If you had mentioned that my advice would have been different; I believe you can only upgrade as far as Camera Raw 8.3 on an older Windows system. There is more information here (look specifically for the "Revert to 8.3 ..." titles).
Adobe Camera Raw Help | Camera Raw/DNG Converter 8.4 on Mac OS 10.6, Windows XP, and Vista
What you've done/written in your last post confuses things further, unfortunately. Photoshop 13.1 is strictly a Creative Cloud version. The highest you can go is Photoshop CS6 13.0.1.3 with perpetual license.
And as far as I can recall, that version can work on Windows back to XP:
System requirements | Photoshop
I don't think you're out of luck, but you seem to be leaping into doing things without having the full story, and are jumping to conclusions a bit too quickly.
Here's what I suggest you try:
1. Remove Photoshop entirely with the Creative Suite Removal Tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
2. Install Photoshop CS6 from your original media or from here:
Download CS6 products
3. Update the application using its own Help - Updates process. That really should get you the latest Camera Raw version that will work. If that does not bring you a Camera Raw that works with your Nikon, use the "Revert to 8.3" instructions above.

Layout - Node will not Expand

Hi All,
I am facing a serious problem in Bex Web Layout. Here few characteristics and keyfigures are in row level and fiscal period char are in column level. Hierarchy is expand to 3 levels and then its collapsed at key figure level.
Now when new record is loaded and all keyfigure values are empty, hierarchy will not expand. I need to manully enter data in atleast one keyfigure for a period and then it will expand.
Has anyone faced the similar problem and was able to solve it ?
Thanks in advance....

Do you have zero suppression turn on for the rows? The problem you are having can be caused by the fact that when you collapse the hierarchy, and the values are all zero, the hierachy node row is all zeros, and thus gets suppressed. Once suppressed, there is not way to re-expand it other than going into the options on the active web template (assuming you are using the SAP default or somehting like it) and re-expanding from there.
Try turning off zero suppression for the rows
