Total Crash (CC) on attempting to Create a Fluid Grid Layout!

I hope someone can recreate this, because I'm climbing up the walls right now. Where to start? I'm trying to create a single fluid-grid page. I'm too tired to repeat the steps concisely, but after being prompted to save my CSS, I do. That's when the errors begin.
First one:
2) Then, when opening the files, it's just blank. No grids, no layout code, just a plain HTML file. So, then,I figure I should save everything, to "generate" the boilerplate CSS, and the JQuery min page, which should probably appear by default, but I go to save anyway. That's when it crashes. So, I open again. Try to open the first file I created: crash.
3) So, I figured maybe my installation was botched. I uninstall and reinstall. Same crashes. So, I figured maybe there might be corrupt files in my web folder (really just trying anything at this point.) So, I create a brand-new site. Same exact scenario.
Now, I understand no one has really had an opportunity to experiment, so this is probably a silly exercise, but maybe someone can recreate this?
I'm too tired to explain anymore but I was really, really hoping that I could use this option to lay out a working comp for a client. Job starts Wednesday. It's not possible to learn Responsive Design in a week, as someone suggested, so I'm really at a loss... I simple don't know what to do!

I found a solution that worked for me.
I removed all the fonts that Adobe CC installed out of my Library:Fonts folder and just left in the Apple Basic fonts like Arial, Courier etc... Launched Dreamweaver CC and the CSS designer panel works. I have no idea exactly which font it is, or creating the conflict. All I know is that it works great now.

very strange - I installed Illustrator CC and then I had no more problems with Dreamweaver! No more crashes when close or create files and no more problems with the CSS designer. Error messages during create fluid grid layouts are also gone ...
Michel:
I think I figured it out on the Mac. Be sure that Verdana is activated in Font Book. What tipped me off to this was a warning I was receiving when trying to open After Effects. It was saying that the program needed Verdana for the user interface to work. I thought that maybe Dreamweaver needed Verdana too. Sure enough! Hope this helps you guys.

Dreamweaver CC has "internal error... while resizing a view" when asked to creat a fluid grid layout

Excited for expanded fluid grid layout features it had, I got Dreamweaver Creative Cloud SPECIFICALLY for that feature.
Sign up, download, install went smoothly. Open Dreamweaver CC, create new fluid grid layout, hit OK, name and desigante location of .css file and get the following error.
"An internal error occurred while resizing a view. (Cview::ResizeFrameBy)" OK
I click OK and nothing happens. App freezes. No css, no files. No nothing.
Have tried restarting, re-installing, different names and destinations for .css file. I'm running Mac 10.8.2
Literally, this is the first thing I've done w/ an ACC app and I am displeased and frustrated. Getting customer service either via forum or offshore phone call less than ideal.
(apologies for spelling error in subj. can't edit it)

Can you try the steps mentioned on the thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5420680
Verified Fix :
For all the Dreamweaver crashes on opening Fluid Grid pages , Closing Documents or opening files
Please make sure the default system fonts are all enabled - especially Verdana
On MAC -
Open Font BOOK from Applications
Activate VERDANA FAmily of Fonts

Problems Creating a "Fluid Grid Layout" with Adobe Dreamweaver CS6

I am trying to create a fluid grid layout in Dreamweaver CS6 (which I know how to do), the problem is Dreamweaver started automatically saving the boilerplate.css & respond.min.js in the Dreamweaver program folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration\BuiltIn\Fluid Grid Layout\) it does not ask me to save the boilerplate.css or the respond.min.js docs as it normally does. Dreamweaver CS6 also creates a css document instead of the html page it should create. I called Adobe support, however they offer no support for "Fluid Grid Layouts", and I cannot seem to find a solution to this problem anywhere on the internet. If anyone knows how to fix this so it will work properly again it will be greatly appreciated!

Hi toger02,
If you have restored the preferences correctly and the issue is still unresolved I would recommend checking the workflow again.
Define a new site in Dreamweaver.
File < New Fluid Grid Layout < Create. Doctype set to HTML5 and no CSS file attached.
A dialog box will pop up, prompting you to save the CSS for this design. This is your custom style sheet. Give a "filename.css" < Click Save.
Once you've done that, the layout for the mobile device appears in the design view as an "untitled" new document with related files listed as "boilerplate.css","respond.min.js" and "filename.css" i.e your custom CSS file.
File < Save < "filename.html". < Save. On clicking Save it will show a popup with the message: Copy Dependent Files, which are boilerplate.css and respond.min.js.
I hope this helps else let us know if issue is on all the new sites and fluid grid pages that you create?
Thanks,
Bhawna

Creating new website with Fluid Grid Layout in CS6 - CS3 Transitions problem

I am making my second website with Fluid Grid layout and as with my last one, it seems I can't use CS6 transitions. Each time I go to add a new transition, Dreamweaver stops working and shuts down. Should you be able to use the transitions function with CS6 transitions or not? In the end, what I want to do is create a behaviour where one image is swapped with another with a click (not a rollover as it won't work on mobiles, I believe).
Thank you

Add a link to jQuery's Latest Library to your document <head> tags.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
Add the jQuery function code to <script> tags in your document. I typically put them right above the closing </body> tag.
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#one").click(function () {
        $("#one-a").toggle('slow');
    $("#two").click(function () {
        $("#two-a").toggle('slow');
    $("#three").click(function () {
        $("#three-a").toggle('slow');
</script>
</body>
As to why DW is closing you down, I don't know. That's not an expected behavior.
Without seeing your code, I'm going to guess that your CSS transition logic is incorrect or you're attempting to add transitions to the FluidGridLayout.css which is never a good idea. Always use a separate, external style sheet for your manually added content styles. Changes to either boilerplate.css or the temperamental FluidGridLayout.css files can result in problems.

Using fluid grid layout in Dreamweaver CC - how do I create a dropdown menu within my main navigation?

I am new to using the responsive fluid grid layouts in Dreamweaver CC - and I am unable to find any information on creating a dropdown menu within my main navigation.
Any ideas?

You'll need to find a menu system that is responsive and mobile friendly for touch screen devices.
If you have a budget to work with, Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic3 is a commercial extension for DW that works great out of the box.
http://projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm3/index.htm
If you don't have a budget, you'll need to create a desktop menu and add a jQuery plugin for mobile devices.

CS6 Fluid Grid Layouts - opening CSSTransitions panel crashes program

Hi there, I'm on my second web page and this old problem has come up again.
I've asked about this before but I'm afraid I never got to the end of it, I just worked around it.
After I open the transitions panel, I then press the + button, then it crashes. Here are the error messages:
Does CSS Transitions work in Fluid Grid Layout? Thank you.

This aging mind gets very easily confused, so please bear with me.
In reply #3, I gave you an answer to you not being able to find the file to delete as in reply #2. Ticking the box next to 'Hidden Items' will allow you to find that file. By default it would be hidden. Ticking the box will not delete the cache file. For that to happen, you need to follow the process as set out in the link supplied in reply #1.

Creating Adaptive Designs Using Fluid Grid Layouts in Dreamweaver CS6 | Digital Design CS6 | Adobe TV

Adobe Evangelist Greg Rewis shows how to create adaptive designs using Fluid Grid Layouts in Dreamweaver CS6.
http://adobe.ly/Iq7L8z

maybe someone here can answer this. Can I take an existing website and apply the fluid grid layout feature to it? I have one regular website that is not responsive. I've tried copying and pasting into the dreamweaver grid layout, but it doesn't respond as expected. Is this even possible?

How can I create multiple pages, with different layouts to the others, in DW fluid grid layouts?

Hi everyone, : )
I am creating a website using FGL in DW CS6, v12.0 build 5808. I do not have Creative Cloud (do you have to pay to use this service?).
I have created one layout for my home page.
I would like to create several more pages, but I want them to use different layouts (as well as different content).
I tried to do something similar before using 'save as' (this was with a non-FGL), but whenever I changed the original page that I had 'save as'd' from, the layout in all the other pages would change too!
I found a possibility from someone else online suggesting using a template, but have not tried it yet: http://www.linkedin.com/groups/Adding-second-fluid-page-in-119937.S.192422240
I'm a bit scared of breaking everything, as I am new to web design and have had to restart the whole process a few times due to messing up the fluid.css etc and other issues, so I am taking baby steps.
Happy to try whatever's suggested and, while I wait for (I hope) your responses, I think I will try the template thing, but from the reply the person who asked the question gave, it sounds like his subsequent pages changed too, as I mentioned above? *scared* ; )
If anyone can help me with this query I would be very grateful. Thank you! : )

Thanks David.
I tried using different IDs for the other pages, but eventually one of the divs seems to 'break' - it overlaps other divs, or cannot be moved or resized (you can select the outline and it goes blue, but no 'move up a row' or down a row or 'lock to grid' etc icons appear and it can't be drag-re-sized), plus the green overlay disappears (just from that div. I'm aware of how to turn visual aids on and off), so it seems broken. This often seems to happen if you rename a div once it's been created; it does not rename in the layout.css on the right side panel (CSS Styles) in DW and the 'broken' behaviour above is exhibited. Do you know anything about this? Is this the 'edit this doc at your peril' stuff that most tutorials seem to mention? Am I doing something wrong?
I also tried making an FGL and saving out the original boilerplate.css, layout.css and respond.js. Then created multiple new FGLs and each time it created new versions of layout.css (called 'untitled-1', 2 etc.). Once I had created all the FGLs, I deleted all the new boilerplates and untitled.css files. Then restored the original ones and changed the link at the top of each page's html to refer to the same filename (the original layout.css), rather than untitled.css. I thought this might work and it seemed to for a while, but then as I had to add new div names for the sections on each page, it eventually broke (as above).
Anyway, I think you have a good point about different layouts and it occurred to me also while I was exploring and waiting for replies here. I think I will make one layout for all pages and go with that. I have a couple of questions about that though:
1. I think the max number of divs I want for one of the pages is 10, but some pages need less divs. If I only fill e.g. 8 divs on one page, will the other ones be sat there empty? I think they will actually...I guess I'm asking because I have not tried it yet (will do after this) and it takes so long to do this trial and error.
2. If the amount of content in each div is different, e.g. let's say Page 1 has 6 lines of content in div1, but page 2 may have an unlimited amount of content (I will want to add to it in the future). Will this result in the div on page 1 being a huge block of empty space after its 6 lines?
Thanks so much for your help!

Gallery created with ul in fluid grid layout

I'm trying to create a gallery of images (all the same size) using Dreamweaver 6 and the fluid grid system. I'd like the images to size up and down with the browser window size as well as to go from 1 across in mobile size, and up to 4 across depending on the size of the window, all while mantaining even padding.
I have a div directly inside the .gridContainer clearfix div, but I can't get the images within to re-size. Is this because all fluid divs have to be directly in the .gridContainer clearfix? If so, is there a way around this?

I've tried to replicate whatever you saw, removing #gallery styles from second_try, but saw no difference in the way the images sized. Then I went back to my html and took out "border" and re-activated #gallery styles and nothing changed except I lost my border.
I've had some time to think about this since I last posted, would it make more sense if I created the gallery effect I'm after with each image in their own div directly in .gridContainer? Then I could specify clearly that there would be 4 columns of images on the max screen, 3 on the tablet, 1 on the mobile...
By the way, never messed with the Boilerplate or FluidGrid css...that is one thing I do remember from the load of material I've tried digesting in the last week :-)
Thanks for the help!

Design option missing for Fluid Grid layouts (was:In dreamweaver CC, I created a new fluid grid page, but the options to edit the page...)

Hi, in dreamweaver CC, I created a new fluid grid page, but the options to edit the page are limited to code / split / live. The design optin is missing and I need it to move around the fluid grid to position my elements that I have created.
Thanks

Hi Raymi,
Like Ben suggested, you can vote for the feature using the link provided. From what I understand, the product team is collecting feedback on the limitations of Live View for FG layouts and improving experience on that front. It would help if you could provide a list of limitations with the current workflow.
Thanks,
Preran

CS2 crashes when I attempt to create web gallery.

I am trying to create a web gallery for my clients and it continues to crash CS2. I am working on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.5.5 with 2 GB of RAM. It doesn't even start the task when I get the option to report the problem to Apple. I have run the software update through Apple and Adobe and I seem to be current on OS and CS2. Has anyone else experienced this problem and found a solution?

The problem may be related to not having a separate Scratch disk and insufficient RAM.

PSE 11 crashes when I attempt to add a new catalog

PSE 11 crashes when I attempt to add a new catalog to those that already exist. No programs are running that might conflict with Organizer, and I can run other functions such as downloading photos from my camera. As soon as I attempt to add a new sub-catalog to an existing major catalog, the program crashes. I'm using Windows 7, and have tried various compatibilities, but none solves the problem. Any ideas?

How do you attempt to 'add a new catalog' or a new 'sub-catalog' ?
There are no such things as 'sub-catalogs' or catalogs included in catalog.
Catalogs are totally independent storing systems, they ignore what is managed in other catalogs.That's why it is recommended to have only one catalog, unless you have a good reason to create several ones because they are totally independent by nature (home vs professional for instance).
You can create several levels of albums, of tags categories, but not with catalogs.

Total crash - how to recover?

My iMac G5 (1st Gen) has totally crashed, and I would like advice on how to proceed.
Following an apparently mild printing disfunction (with everything else appearing to work), I did a restart. Computer wouldn't restart - white screen with grey Apple stays, and CPU works flat out (judging by the fans).
Inserted the Leopard system disk and used Disk Utility to repair the disk - reported "The volume iMac HD appears to be OK". Still wouldn't restart from HD.
Next tried to reload Leopard (Archive & Install). Five minutes into the install, I get a message "Install Failed. Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer. The installer could not install some files in "/Volumes/iMac HD". This attempt successfully archived the existing system 10.5.2, so that I couldn't even select this disk as the startup disk, but didn't succeed in replacing it. Tried to do a basic install, with the same message. This is the same Leopard disk I successfully used to upgrade from Panther a few months ago.
So now I have a computer without a usable OS on the HD (which wouldn't start up anyway), with the Leopard install disk stuck in the DVD drive (no way to get it out), and a whole slew of files without an up-to-date backup (don't say it - the mega external HD wasn't high on the budget list).
Before I take what appears to be the only remaining avenue - erase the entire HD and try to install OS X from scratch - I need to attempt to back up.
So the first question: Disk Utility offers me the possibility of making disk images (and I do have a modest 80GB USB external drive with 53 GB available). Do these disk images (if successful) represent a valid back-up that I can later recover all my data from? If so, which folder(s) should I try and turn into disk images? Obviously my Home folder and one or two other small ones I have created, but what about (for example) the Applications folder? Any others? Or should I go for the whole archived system (with some possible corruption), even though it has more stuff on it (61GB) than there is space for on the external drive?
Second question. Is there anything else less drastic than erasing the entire HD and starting over that I can do?
Finally, what is the likely cause of the problem in the first place? How can I proceed to try and reconstruct things so that the cause is eliminated, and so that it doesn't recur?
Help please.

Finally getting somewhere!!
I used one of Baby Boomer's suggestions for getting the stuck disk out of the DVD drive - using the firmware command "eject cd" - and that worked.
Then I was able to set up target disk mode the other way - using the dead iMac as the target, and my McBook as the host. I am now in the process of copying files from the dead iMac HD to the MacBook and hence on to the external USB drive. This is taking some time, but all seems well so far. Once this is complete I plan to completely erase the hard drive and re-install Leopard if it will.
Now is the time to revisit one of my original questions. Which files should I copy, given the nature of the fault I have? Obviously the Home folder and some other minor folders I created at the same level. If I leave it at that, am I likely to lose any other useful information, such as settings, bookmarks, preferences, printer drivers, etc., that were part of my life on the iMac? Or anything else?
What about the Applications folder? Re-installing all the applications is likely to be time consuming, but it's something I can do. The potential problem is that individual applications sometimes have bits installed all over the place; it could also be that the presumed disk corruption on the HD could have come from one of the apps. So there may be danger here . . . . .
Again, many thanks to both Miriam and Baby Boomer for pointing me in the right way.
I will post any findings on whether the HD is good or whatever. I will likely run TechTool deluxe before I erase the drive (now I know how to get the disk out again . . . . .) to see what it finds.
BTW, the mega hard drive is on order, and Time Machine will be deployed ASAP. I don't want this again!

IPHOTO 09+SNOW LEOPARD= TOTAL CRASH !

Last july I upgraded from Tiger , iphoto 06, Powerbook G4 to the newest MBP 2,26,2 gb, 500 gb, iphoto 09 and now Snow Leopard.
The first migration was not so bad. But There were many duplicates and many Thumbnails without original pictures. so the library became of 95,000 jpgs (originally 25,000). after Trying to clean it (using Duplicator annihilator, and the script to delete vacuum spaces) i decide to create another library, re-importing pictures from the PB, now with more carefully.
The new library was ok, only 25,000 pics. Another time i got thumbnail without pictures and it was very slow, I tried to rebuilt the library and after this I found thumbnails and related pictures.
A week ago, i upgrade to snow leopard... TOTAL CRASH!
Opening Iphoto and trying to open a picture... crash
...In Italy we say "dalla padella nella brace"...
After reading many posts and forums
I tried to:
- Rebuilt library
- Trash iphoto and re-install it
- Upgrading Ilife 09 with the last support
- Check permissions of Iphoto and of all the disk
- create another user, (using the same library)
Nothing to do to Iphoto, is still Crashing.
I'm thinking to my old powerbook...
Now i'm using Aperture, Trial version, using iphoto library. It's no bad, but a little bit slow, But next month i'll must to pay It!
Please help Me!.. I loved iphoto (the old one)
and sorry for my English
many greetings from Naples, italy...

"+Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder."
*Done. Still slow, but not stopped. A little bit better.*
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)+
*How i can reset my account options? Some things are different in Italian language.*
+Doing this:+
+create another user, (using the same library)+
+Is pointless as the problem is the Library. In the new account simply create a new Library to see if it works.+
+Post the Crash Log.+
*It's not a really crash, but an endless waiting with the multicolor circle. After many minutes i have to make an hard exit (commandoptionesc)*
+Happened because you imported one library to another, as opposed to simply updating it.+
*How I can do a simply update? Using "import" in the archive menu?*
*But so I must move the library to import in another folder, because i can't import from other iphoto library folder. I will try it.*
*thank's Terence, You're great.*

An error occurred while attempting to create the directory: C:\ProgramData\microsoft\windows\start Menu

Itunes update 10.5.2.11 for windows 7 (64 bit) keeps crashing at this point...
"an error occurred while attempting to create the directory: C:\ProgramData\microsoft\windows\start Menu"
I have read all of the forums to no avail. Seems like a common problem.
Has anyone had the same issue and actually solved it?

I'm getting this problem too. I have been running iTunes for a few years with no problems until recently. WHenever I try and open it I get an error message saying "An error occured while attmpting to create the directory: I:\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\de.lproj\EQWindow.nib" with the options to retry or cancel. Retry just results in the same error message occuring again.
I've tried other programs on the I: drive and they work fine, I've also followed the 'Removing iTunes Configuration Files' and some of the other apple support guides with no success. My windows updates are fine.
Any suggestions?
