Unable to select file in Dreamweaver such as link

I have Windows 7 with CS3.
If I wish to select an image or a link and the "box" is already populated, if I browse to and select a new one, it does not change in Dreamweaver. Anybody else having this problem.
Let's say I want to change an image. I select a new one but Dreamweaver does not change the name that is already there. If I clear the field our first it works correctly.

When all else fails, you can run older windows apps in XP mode.

Unable to upload files using Dreamweaver Ultra Dev 4 (Was: Trying to upload files.)

My service provider has recently updated and now I can no longer upload to my site using my antequated but easy to use Dreamweaver Ultra Dev 4.
I am trialling the current Dreamweaver, but of course it is massively different! I've just tried uploading a file, and although it seemed to go OK, no error
messages etc - it's not made it onto my internet site. Any suggestions please?

First define your site in DW. Go to Site > New Site or Manage Sites. See Screenshots.
Servers: Enter your remote server's log-in credentials. Root Directory is whatever your hosting provider told you to use. This varies by web host and could be public_html, htdocs, www or none at all. If unsure, contact your host.
Hit the Test button to see if you can connect to your server. If not, click on More Options.

Unable to access files using search title and link

Once a list of search results appears, I am unable to retrieve the referenced document using either the hyperlink title or "link" hyperlink. I can only access the document using cache. Does crawler configuration need to be modified?

file://localhost/dbadmin
And here is the error message that appears when the title hyperlink is selected:
java.io.IOException: \dbadmin\projects\NMAX_Refresh\Requests\NMAT_20050329\mtch_users_synonym.sql is not an acceptable relative path when user.dir is C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.6\SES1\ at oracle.aurora.java.io.OracleIO.transformRelative(OracleIO.java:65) at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileInputStream.(FileInputStream.java:103) at oracle.search.GetPage.readFileURL(GetPage.java:958)

Unable to Insert Adobe Edge Animate files into Dreamweaver CS6!

I have just tried the new Insert Edge Media feature in the new Cloud version of Dreamweaver CS6, but I can't get it to work!!
I have the option, but all the files in the Edge folder are unhighlighted (grey'd out) and I am unable to select anything Edge has published. I have noticed that the file extension has recently changed from .edge to .an with the launch of Animate.. Is this the problem?
Its a shame as its really quite tricky to put edge stuff into a web page at present..
Any ideas?
Wesley

Do you have an HTML5 web document open?
Below are instructions from the DW CS6 Reference document
http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/dreamweaver_reference.pdf
Import Edge Animate compositions | Creative Cloud
This feature is available for Creative Cloud members and point product subscribers only.
You can import Adobe Edge Animate compositions (OAM files) into Dreamweaver. The composition is placed at the location of the cursor. Dreamweaver extracts the contents of the imported OAM file to a folder named edgeanimate assets. You can change the default location in the Site Setup dialog.
1. Ensure that your cursor is at the location where you want to insert the Edge Animate composition.
2. Select Insert > Media > Edge Animate Composition.
3. Navigate to the location in your computer containing the OAM file, and open it. The animation is placed at the specified location.
By default, the contents of the OAM file are extracted to the edgeanimate_assets folder. A sub folder with the name of the file is created. The contents of the OAM file are placed in the Assets folder under this location.
You can place Edge Animate Compositions into individual pages not part of any site. The files are extracted to the location of the page.
Location of extracted files
     A. The edgeanimate_assets folder
     B. The folder created using the file name of the OAM file
     C. The Assets folder containing the extracted files
4. Preview the inserted Edge Animate composition in a browser or in the Live View.
Change default location for extracted files
1. Open the Site Setup dialog for your site.
2. Under Advanced Settings, select Edge Animate Assets.
3. In Asset Folder, modify the location for extracted files

Sudo: unable to stat /etc/sudoers: No such file or directory sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting

I am trying to empty my trash but it wouldn't . so I ran this command sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash/* in the terminal
I got an error message
"sudo: unable to stat /etc/sudoers: No such file or directory
sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting"
does anyone have a clue? thanks

First, never use the shell (Terminal) to empty the Trash. It's dangerous and unnecessary, and it usually doesn't work.
A necessary system file is missing. If you know how that happened, restore it from a backup. Otherwise, see below.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

Error message: "Unable to prepare the selected file for editing"

There is another similar post. I have imported a bunch of Nikon NEF raw files into Lightroom. I can work them without any problem, but when I right-click the image to edit it further in Photoshop CS3. I get this message: i "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file <filename.NEF> for editing. It will not be opened." Photoshop has no trouble opening these NEF files by itself, but Lightroom can't hand it them off. Anyone know why this is? Nothing I can find in the help file or elsewhere here. Stan

Sean, if they are off-line, would any of this Xmp stuff make any difference? Don't they need to be brought On-lie to edit? And where would the Xmp's go with them off-line?

Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at (file path to image) for editing. it wil

I have been using lightroom since Beta and this is the first issue that I can't seem to fix.
I was working on some files editing in external editors - PS5 & Niksoftware I had worked on 4 or 5 images no problems, working awesome as normal. Then I decided to get rid of one of the files - an edited image - when it asked to remove from lightroom or from disk, I clicked, remove from disk. I never do that but trying to be better with space. Then tried to edit a different image and the error "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at (NEF - the proper location) for editing. it will not be opened." comes up.
I looked on line and one answer was to delete the preference file and then restart, which also meant reloading the catalogue. All of which worked no problem but the error still is coming up. I have restarted lightroom and the computer a couple of times, in different sequences
I have lightroom 5.3 64 bit on windows 7, as I said all working perfectly until deleting one file.
Anybody have any ideas for me?

I had this error message, too. Turned out it was due to my use of subst to create a virtual drive letter for my photo library. See Lightroom 3.2 - Using subst to a local drive fails for the solution! (even with LR 5.5, still)

Hi I'm getting Lightoom error when trying to edit in Nik Software "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at /Volumes/Portable C/Kite Skating nikon/_DHT9654.NEF for editing. It will not be opened.

Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at
/Volumes/Portable C/Kite Skating nikon/_DHT9654.NEF for editing.
It will not be opened.
what does this mean? can anyone help?

Yes it is on a portable drive yet I have already worked with it and exported it as a jpg. The problem arises whenever I try to edit in the plug-ins from Nik software...this just happened recently as it never happened before...for years?

LR 3.3 "unable to prepare the selected file" for plugin

OK - using LR 3.3 and trying to edit an image in an external plugin and getting this error message:
Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at [file name] for editing.
It will not be opened.
1) Image can still be adjusted and printed in Lightroom
2) FIle name and path are correct
Possible source of problem:
3) Last week I renamed the volume and had to go through all my directories and find missing files. I did that.
4) I've also optimized the catalog hoping it would restore things, but nope.
5) I can edit other files found on this volume (an internal hard drive) and same top-level directory with this plugin.
H*E*L*P

Resolved. File permissions had somehow been set to read-only. Now if only I could figure out why that happened...

Unable To Include Files In iOS Package

Hi,
I an using the latest release version of Flash Builder, trying to package an app for the iPad. I have an AIR application that I created to run on a desktop, and have modified it to run on the iPad. It works fine, however I cannot package the need resource files it uses, such as jpg, xml, swf, and flv files within the ipa file using Flash Builder. It seems that if I select more than 30-40 of these types of files to include, Flash Builder will not compile the ipa file without some sort of error, the most common one talks about:
"Cannot run program "java.exe" (in directory "C\Users\lee\AppData\Local\Temp\AOT1308010984915"): CreateProcess error=206, The filename or extension is too long"
Now I am guessing that Flash Builder is appending all of my selected files to a command line string or something somewhere, and so it can't handle that long of string on the command line. If I stick to less than 30 files, it works fine, but if I try and the 1000 or so files that I need to, it will not work.
This app would never be in the app store, but rather on internal company iPads. The reason for so many files is the number of products the app covers, and the number of languages it supports. So yes the ipa file would be about 500Mb, but that should not be an issue, since an ipa file is basically a zipped archive. I think this is a bug though in Flash Builder; the program also becomes unresponsive when trying to access the include file list located in Project Properties -> ActionScript Build Packaging -> Apple iOS settings dialog. It make take several minutes before FB becomes responsive again when working with this number of files.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
thanks

Hello,
Since I first encountered this bug, I have always had my asset files in
subfolders. See the attached screen shot. This is my project folder, and
every subfolder is included except for the com folder, which for some
reason FB copied into the bin directory on it's own.
So I do not think this fixed. In this report, they are not using the same
number of files as I am, so it is possible that this only works with a low
number of files.
thx

When popup windows open in Encore I am unable to select within that window

Encore 5.5, for instance. . . .I got to file, dynamic link, import sequence and a pop up window comes up. I am unable to select anything within that popup window to tell encore where to find the files I need. This is the case with ANY popup window when working within encore.
HELP!!

No idea in terms of Encore as such. No problems in other programs?
Try another mouse? In another USB port if USB?
I can confirm that in the new project window, for example, you cannot tab or arrow between fields. If your mouse can't select, you're stuck. Same for dynamic link.
Did you use the cleaner tool when uninstalling?
I am not sure if reinstalling Encore necessarily recreates the preferences file. I would try this in any event. "Hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys while choosing Start > Programs > Adobe Encore <version number>. Release the keys after several seconds. The application will not start at this point, but the preferences file will be deleted." The more complete instructions are here at #12:
Troubleshoot damaged projects in Encore on Windows
None of that will matter, of course, if it is a mouse/mouse driver issue.
Just FYI, there are keyboard shortcuts in Encore, but the list is not accessed from within Encore. Go here:

Unable to create file

Hello
I am trying to add a data logging module into a VI that is running ok. But no matter what I try, the data is not stored into the selected file. I'm adding a screenshot of the block diagram.
The problem seems to be that Labview is unable to create a file. When I add no file path, the user should be prompted where to save the file, but this never happens. When I add a path/filename, Labview seems to ignore this. Regardless if the file already exists or it should be created by Labview, the file is not created/saved.
The errors I already encountered:
- Error 7 - File not found: when I add a path to the "create file" block
- Error 43 - The operation was cancelled by the user (which is not true, as the user is never asked where to save the file): when I add no path to the "create file" block
Note: the image below is part of a larger VI: it is in a flat sequence.
Note 2: I'm running LabView 2012, with realtime module.
Note 3: the rest of the program is running well, we are measuring data without problems, but nothing is being logged.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The missing shift register can't be the problem, although it is considered better to use that for refnums and the like. For WHILE loops it is not strictly necessary as such a loop will always execute at least once and therefore the refnum AFTER the loop ends will be just as valid as the refnum BEFORE the loop. For FOR loops that can not be true. If the FOR loop executes 0 times (iteration count is specified as 0 or an empty autoindexing array is connected as input) then the refnum AFTER the loop will be always an invalid refnum if no shift register is used for that refnum, since there is no logical dataflow from the input tunnel of the loop to the output tunnel for this refnum.
As to the original question: Does the C:\LabVIEW\Data folder already exist on the harddrive?? If it does can you delete the Open/Create File node and place a new one on the diagram?

Working with .phtml files in dreamweaver... a how to

hope this helps those diving into magento, zend, and other goodies, but want the comfort of dreamweaver. would be nice if it came this way, but it's an easy add for dreamweaver.
By default, Dreamweaver cannot read PHTML files. You can add the file type to the “Open in Code View” section of the preferences if you wish to have fast access, however you cannot view the file in design view if you do that. So if you use Dreamweaver (versions 4, MX, MX2004, 8, or 9, aka CS3,CS4) to design your sites, and you wish to open Magento’s Template files (they have .phtml extensions) in Dreamweaver, you can follow these steps to add support for .phtml and make Dreamweaver render PHP code (with coloring, hinting, et al) as well as allow you to see the design in code view if desired. Below are three steps to follow.*
IMPORTANT NOTES: This guide is for Dreamweaver on Windows (XP or Vista) or Mac OS X. Note: I have excluded version numbers from the file locations shown, and if you are using a version older than Dreamweaver 9 (CS3) replace “Adobe” with “Macromedia” in the file locations shown. Some spaces have also been removed to keep the references on one line.
* Dreamweaver 4 users: if you are using the archaic Dreamweaver 4, you only need to follow step one. However, it’s highly recommended that you just upgrade to version 8, CS3 or newer for superb CSS and Web Standards support.
* Vista may need to edit files by running notepad as Administrator, however this requirement is not common and if encountered, may be avoidable by following these steps after a fresh restart. However, if unavoidable, simply go to Start > All Programs > Accessories, and then right click on Notepad and select “Run as Administrator”. Once notepad is open, use File > Open to browse to the applicable file before making the necessary changes.
Open the following extension configuration file in a notepad and change the lines as specified below:
XP: Documents and Settings > [user] > Application Data > Adobe Dreamweaver > Configuration > extensions.txt
NOTE: If you cannot see the Application Data Folder, go to Tools → Folder Options → View and make sure that Show Hidden Files and Folders is checked.
Vista: Users > [user] > AppData > Roaming > Adobe > Dreamweaver 9 > Configuration > Extensions.txt
Mac OS X: Users > [Home Folder] >Library > Application Support > Adobe > Dreamweaver [Your Version] > [en_US or other locale (only for version CS4)] > Configuration > Extensions.txt
HTM,HTML,SHTM,SHTML, ... ,TXT,PHP,PHP3,PHP4,PHP5,PHTML,JSP,WML,TPL, ... ,MASTER:All Documents
PHP,PHP3,PHP4,PHP5,TPL,PHTML:PHP Files
This file is pretty much exactly like the extensions.txt file located in Dreamweaver’s Application Data folder, except it is in Dreamweaver’s Program Files folder, inside a configuration folder. Just as in Step One, find the file and change the lines as specified below.
XP, Vista: Program Files > Adobe > Dreamweaver [Your Version] > configuration > Extensions.txt
Mac OS X: Applications > Adobe Dreamweaver [Your Version] > configuration > Extensions.txt
HTM,HTML,SHTM,SHTML, ... ,TXT,PHP,PHP3,PHP4,PHP5,PHTML,JSP,WML,TPL, ... ,MASTER:All Documents
PHP,PHP3,PHP4,PHP5,TPL,PHTML:PHP Files
This will apply your php code coloring settings to your phtml files This file is an XML file which should be located in:
XP, Vista: Program Files > Adobe > Dreamweaver [Your Version] > configuration > DocumentTypes > MMDocumentTypes.xml
Mac OS X: Applications > Adobe Dreamweaver [Your Version] > configuration > DocumentTypes > MMDocumentTypes.XML
Note: Dreamweaver 8 users on Windows may also need to apply these changes to: C:Program Files > Macromedia > Dreamweaver 8 > Configuration > Document Types > MMDocumentTypes.xml
Note: In Windows 7/Vista you may need to update the file permissions under Properties>Security tab in order to save your changes to the file.
<documenttype id="PHP_MySQL" servermodel="PHP MySQL"
internaltype="Dynamic" winfileextension="php,php3,php4,php5,phtml"
macfileextension="php,php3,php4,php5,phtml" file="Default.php"
writebyteordermark="false">;
</documenttype>
Restart or Open Dreamweaver and you shouldn’t have any problems with PHTML files any longer.

I have seen a good solution at http://webdesignsolutions.co.in/add-phtml-extension-in-dreamweaver , this is very simple.

Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

Hello,
We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
file.
I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

Hello Bria,
What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items:
User
Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
Hide these specified drives in My Computer
Prevent access to specified drives in My
Computer
There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

Selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type

I've been using Premiere Elements 9 for a couple of years now, and a few months ago I began having problems importing AVI files created from a BlackMagic Intensity Pro capture card. (These issues were not previously occurring, and since they surfaced, I have exhausted the various settings for the BlackMagic card, used various software such as BlackMagic's own Media Express as well as the freeware VirtualDub, and still have the following problems.)
In addition, these AVI files play just fine, in their entirety, using Windows Media Player and in Quicktime.
The problem (or possibly two, but I suspect they could be related) is that most of the AVI files I attempt to import will either (1) import all video and NO audio, or (2) import ONLY a short segment of audio and video, and the length that Elements imports varies. Usually only in the range of a minute or two. The rest of the file is not imported at all.
After much digging in forums, and testing various settings in trying to figure out the issue, I decided to back up all of my files and completely wipe all hard drives and start over with a fresh installation of Windows and Premiere Elements 9. I haven't installed much else yet, as I wanted to first find out if the reinstallation improved things with Elements.
For the first project I created in Elements after the reinstallation, Elements successfully imported an entire AVI that was nearly 2 hours long, audio and video. This was a file that previously would not import properly into Elements. This suggested that my earlier installation of Elements must have been corrupted somehow. At this point I was very hopeful that all was well.
I proceeded to edit the video as I had wanted, saved the project, and exported it to an MPEG format file. I had originally wanted to export it as an MOV, but I hadn't yet installed Quicktime, so Elements couldn't do that just yet. The MPEG export was successful and plays fine.
However, I then installed Quicktime, and once it was finished, I restarted the PC and reloaded the same project. This time, Elements claimed the media was offline. I double-clicked on a segment of the video, and directed Elements to the raw file, but then an error message popped up: "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type (audio and video)." This was the same file I had JUST edited and of which I created an MPEG.
I tried creating a new project and the "Get Media" function to import the AVI again, but this time only the video imported with NO audio. (This would explain why the error message said what it did, but not why the audio wasn't imported.)
What in the world is going on with Elements??? I am baffled since the ONLY task I have done on this machine after a complete reinstallation of both Windows and Elements is edit one AVI. I find it very hard to believe that just installing Quicktime caused this.
Some info on my system:
System: Asus P6T w/ Intel i7 920 and 12 GB memory
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
Video Software: Premiere Elements 9
Capture Card: BlackMagic Intensity Pro (PCI-e)
Capture Software: AVIs recorded with either BlackMagic Media Express or VirtualDub (only prior to the reinstallation, as neither of these programs are currently installed)
I'm getting to the point with Elements that I might need to just abandon it and find something else that is more reliable. Anybody have suggestions to help with this, so I won't have to migrate?

mtnsports
We think that we need to start off with definiting the properties of these .avi files that you are importing into Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 (assumed that you are working for the required 9.0.1 Update).
You say that the "avi" was created from a "BlackMagic Intensity Pro capture card". What are the properties of this .avi that you imported into Premiere Elements? Not all .avi are created equal. What is the video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio, typical duration?
Based on the properties of the video what have you been setting as the project preset?
Let us start here.
More later.
