Upgrading to DreamWeaver CS4

Dont think I need the other pieces and would like to save the
$500.

What are you upgrading from?
If you own a suite, you cannot upgrade just Dreamweaver. You
have to upgrade
the entire suite.
If it's just DWMX 2004, 8 or CS3 that you own and you want to
upgrade to DW
CS4 then the upgrade options are shown on the Adobe website.

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now when I want to upload I get "an TFP error occured - cannot make connection to host". I spent hours with the host technician and we cant find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to host perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?
Mac OS 10.8.5
None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We have double checked all of them and we have everything exactly right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Could there must be factor in 6 that didn't exist in 4? Something that isnt in the SiteSetup but in some hidden dialog box ?
I can also upload to my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And as I said DW CS4 works fine. So the problem is not with my host, its with DW CS6 in particular.

Thank you Jon, that fixed it perfectly. You have saved me from going crazy. The only difference I see now is in "Server Name" it changed what I had entered (my ftp address) to "Remote Server"; which seems odd -- but it works! Although I know there maybe also some other dialog box I have never seen
Of course I saw that menu item "Import" and but I thought thats obviously not for me: "Why would I want to import an entire website?". I did not however see "Export the selected site" for thats only a tiny icon in the footer. However I would have thought the same: "Why would I want to export my entire website?".
An observation: I've seen this problem in a lot of Adobe software, the menu-names of items are obscure, non descriptive. What would be better would be for the menu names or popups to say "Export Site Setup settings" and "Import Site Setup settings"

Problem with Dreamweaver CS4 after upgrade to Lion

I am having a problem after upgrading to Lion, with my Dreamweaver CS4 . When I try to use the bold button the text completely dissapears from the screen in design view The text is still there as it shows up in preview and also shows up in code view. Has anyone else had similar problems since the upgrade? and is there going to be a fix for it.

http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/faq.html#lion-os
There are a number of known compatibility issues with Creative Suites and Lion
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/905/cpsid_90508.html
Can't see your specific issue mentioned though.
Perhaps report it to Adobe via the Bug Report form giving full details

Formatting lost following upgrade from Dreamweaver 3 to CS4

Hi there
I've recently upgraded from Dreamweaver 3 to CS4 but now find that quite a bit of my formatting has been altered, particularly with tables. Does anyone know if there's an easy way to remedy this throughout my site or do I have to go into every page and manually change font sizes etc?
Many thanks'
Chrissie

Hey thanks John
Here's the home page: www.maristrugby.org.nz
I've uploaded a 'converted' (to CS4) page, it's very messy but I've loaded it up for now so that you can see the problems I'm having:

Hopefully there will be a relatively 'easy' answer!
Thanks again
Chrissie :-)

Can I upgrade dreamweaver cs4 to cs6

Can my Dreamweaver
cs4 be upgraded to Dreamweaver cs6

You do qualify for 40% off your first year subscription price as a prior owner of the Creative Suite...
Creative Cloud free trial & plans : Adobe Creative Cloud
DWCS6 was available as a stand alone one time purchase for $299 USD and slightly less for DWCS5.5 owners, but it looks like they no longer offer it, all references to it have been scrubbed from the online store within the last week.

Dreamweaver CS4 stopped with Mac Upgrade

I just bought a new Macbook pro with Yosemite. I migrated all files
as per a normal upgrade.
Most of my software is working.
But Dreamweaver CS4 won't start up, giving this error message:
"No document types have been found in the
Configuration/DocumentTypes/ folder. The
MMDocumentTypes.xml file may be missing or
corrupted. The application will exit now."
What to do?

Hi: Thanks. Your advice might have helped. In the mean time I upgraded to Dreamweaver CC 2014.1. That didn't work either. But with half an hour with a nice guy from New Delhi "Prabs" and with my network admin, we got Dreamweaver connected and working again. And, forgunately, my school seems to have a site license now, so it won't cost me.
Thanks for your help, which probably would have worked in the end.

Are There Preset Flash Buttons In Dreamweaver CS4

I have upgraded from Dreamweaver MX to CS4 and I'm looking for preset flash buttons that I can just insert within dreamweaver and I can't find any. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place? I don't know how to create flash buttons just yet and If i need to start the journey of learning how please let me know. I'm editing a site I created in MX so I want matching buttons and such lol.

There aren't any flash buttons in DWCS4 anymore see Deprecated features in this link:

Dreamweaver CS4 Insert Table button does not work.

I recently upgrade from an older version of Dreamweave to Dreamweaver CS4. But now I have a problem with inserting tables.
They have the dropdown on the top right for Classic, Coder, Coder Plus and so on. I was using classic and everything was fine, then all of a sudden if I try using the Insert Table button from the Inserts tab, it does nothing. If I right click on the button, then click on the button it works, and if i switch to any other view it works. so then I used Coder and it was fine, but then again it stopped working. So I switched to Coder Plus and it was fine for a few more days and then it stops working again. I have rebooted my machine, closed out of DW and nothing seems to fix it. I just installed all adobe software updates and there was nothing in the update that fixed the problem. Does anyone else have this issue and if so, how do I fix it?
I have searched google and I can't find anything. I can keep switching views but one day soon if it continues, I'm going to run out of views and Its such a habit to use the button instead of the Ctrl+Alt+T shortcut.

try the following
Recreate Dreamweaver CS4 Configuration and registry
- rename the configuration folder to any name. (just add any character I suggest)
C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\Configuration
- recreate the registry folder
Start > run > regedit
HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Adobe>Dreamweaver>10. Rename 10 ex: 10_old
maybe you can post your specs here for more specific troubleshooting. Cheers!

Will Dreamweaver CS4 work properly with 10.6.1 Snow Leopard?

Hello
Can anyone tell me please, if Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 work properly with my MacBook OS 10.6.1 Snow Leopard? Adobe state "Mac OS X v10.4.11–10.5.4" in the system requirements, but does this mean, in practise, that Dreamweaver will not work properly with Snow Leopard?
I have tried to find info about this here, but have spend ages wading through masses of complaints about various applications crashing for people after they upgraded to 10.6.1 Snow Leopard. Personally, touch wood, I've had no problems with Snow Leopard, but I only really use it for Internet surfing and word processing (my work, music stuff on Logic Pro 8, is done on my Mac Pro which came with Leopard and which I am NOT upgrading - not yet!).
I have also attempted to get an answer from Adobe - I 'phoned their "Pre-sales enquiries" number 0800 028 0148 (in the UK) and spoke to someone who sounded as if she was on the moon and who clearly had absolutely no idea what I was talking about. I gave up with them! They didn't give an email address to ask on.
I'd be very grateful if anyone can give a clear, authoritative answer please - if possible.

I've been a Mac user since 1987 and have never upgraded the OS too soon after a new version was launched. Any new OS, like new houses, will have a 'snagging list' - unforeseen problems that arise and need to be sorted before your purchase is truly habitable and functions as expected.
But the stability of OS X 10.5 paved the way for my lapse of judgement when I upgraded to Snow Panther last week, while its compatibility with some major software is still clearly too buggy.
I've been using Dreamweaver (DW) CS4 successfully on OS X 10.5 for some time. Since installing OS X 10.6.1 I now have problems with DW, which I've alerted Adobe to.
When using Design View in DW CS4, any formatted text - from html tags to css tags - disappears from the Design view. The code appears correctly in the Code window and even if you highlight text that has coding attached in Code view - eg text with a url link attached - the Design view continues to ignore it and removes the text from its view. I've discovered that my heading tags (h1, h2, etc) all make the text disappear in Design view in a way that would be the envy of members of the Magic Circle! The only thing that seems to get through is text that is surrounded by paragraph tags.
Thing is that 'Preview in Browser' shows the page correctly (except in Opera, which I've only installed since installing Snow Leopard, so I can't say how this displayed in the previous OS versions).
Also when I upload the site to the server it all seems to display more or less as it should.
So currently it seems that DW CS4's Design view is no longer WYSIWYG! Expect to find lots of text hidden in Design view and have to use Code view much more.
It would be nice to think that Apple and Adobe would talk to each other and work it out between them.
re: Dreamweaver, I'd check back to Adobe.com regularly to see when they upgrade the OS requirements to 10.6.1 (I hadn't spotted before I bought Snow Leopard that they only go up to 10.5 in their OS recommendations).
My advice if you're thinking of upgrading to Snow Panther: delay it until it more of it works compatibly with your major applications. Check the OS spec from each software manufacturer first. Meanwhile I'll just have to wait patiently for Apple & Adobe to get their act together...

Adobe acrobat 8 won't install with Indesign and Dreamweaver CS4

I have a client who I had to build a new computer for which is Windows XP Pro. On her original machine I had AA8, InDesign CS4, DreamWeaver CS4, Contribute CS5, Adobe Reader 9.3 and Adobe Photoshop 6. I have tried puting AA8 on the new machine that has all of the above on it and I get a response that I have a newer version of AA and it won't install. I don't have any AA on this machine so I'm not sure what to do. She says she can't edit PDFs or combine them and that she can't create a PDF ind Word and Xcel and edit them. Should I tell her to upgrade to AA9 so that it is compatible to the CS4/5 products?
Thanks,
Lgarn

Thank you Bill for replying.
I have been able to install the disc but it tells me that I have to activate it with a time limit of 30 days and counting. Activation fails each time I've tried. As I'm nearing the end of the time limit I decided to contact Adobe for advice. They gave me a download package and new serial number but it's only suitable for OS XP and Windows 2000 so I'm unable to download it. I was told by the advisor if I still had problems to use the forum as a means of support so that's why I'm talking to people here.
I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobate Pro 7, so I might try reinstalling the disc to see if it gives me another 30 days grace, that, at least, would be a way around it.
I'll now follow the link you've given me. Though I do suspect I'm in a bit of a cul de sac.

Footer displayed inaccurately in Dreamweaver CS4 php page

Hi,
I recently upgraded from Dreamweaver 8 to Dreamweaver CS4. Our organization site uses mostly php pages. When I attempt to open these pages in Dreamweaver CS4 the footer menu bar displays innacurately down through the center of the page and won't allow any edits as it acts like a top layer or something. Usually it acts as a menu bar on the top of any page on our website.
As it should appear from an online screen shot: You'll notice the orange menu bar across the top.
A shot of the Design View in Dreamweaver CS4: You'll see the menu options are running down the center of the page as text.

This seems like a simple solution but I'm just not sure what it would be.

The live view or preview functions do not work and lead to the error: "Not Found, the requested URL/html/index.php was not found on this server.'   This is another issue that I don't understand.
Unfortunately, I did not develop this website and have a minimal knowledge of html and Dreamweaver. I'm not sure if I can answer the question about which menu system we're using - would seeing the code of the footer help?   I'll paste below in case.
And just to be clear, the problem only occurs in editing in Dreamweaver, but when uploaded to our server it appears correctly.
Thanks for your help!

'Browse For File' icon not working in Dreamweaver CS4

Hello All.
Ever since upgrading my copy of Dreamweaver from version 8 to CS4, I seem to have accounted an annoying bug (?)
If, for example, I want to change an image on a webpage, I would click the image in question on the screen and by using the Properties panel would select a new image by clicking the 'Browse For File' icon in the 'Source File Of Image' section of the panel.
Then I would select the new image, hit 'OK' and the image would be changed.
Now when I do this nothing happens - the original image remains and cannot be altered.
I now have to manually type the link of the new image into the 'Source File Of Image' field, which is a pain.
I have even disabled my firewall and anti-virus just in case these were somehow conflicting but still no change.
Any ideas anyone please?
Thanks,
Jon
Using Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows Vista Home Premium SP2

If Dreamweaver is behaving in an odd way, it frequently means that there is a corrupt personal configuration folder.
Close Dreamweaver, locate the personal configuration folder, and rename it.
When you restart Dreamweaver, it should create a new configuration folder with all the program defaults.
For details of how to find the configuration folder, see this page in the Dreamweaver FAQ.
Hope this solves your issue.

Dreamweaver CS4 Crashes on Startup [ OSX Snow Leopard]

I would greatly appreciate any feedback regarding the problem I am finding below.
For some strange reason all of a sudden Dreamweaver crashes everytime I open the application. I have recently upgraded to OSX Snow Leopard but have been using Dreamweaver without any problems since upgrading. I have tried uninstalling the full Adobe CS4 suite and have reinstalled from scratch but this hasn't made any difference. I have also removed the preference files, to no avail. I am not sure if this is a Apple problem or a Adobe application problem. All the other CS4 applications open without a problem.
The error I receive is as follows:

There is a lot more on this error but I have removed this.

Thank you in advance.

I'm not a Mac user so don't have first hand experience - but there's a rather lengthy thread relating to issues with SL that may be of some help:

If not, then the only suggestion I can offer is to contact Adobe Support.

Will Dreamweaver CS4 run on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion?

I've been upgrading several software apps I have to bring them into compliance with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion before I upgrade the operating system itself. I have the CS4 Master Collection, and it's about the last step before I'm totally brought up to date before "Lion-izing" my Mac. Any chance that CS4 will run on Lion without too many hiccups? The one "mission critical" element of the Creative Suite that I need every day is Dreamweaver, which I use each day to post deliverables to my website for client retrieval.
What can you tell me about CS4, and in particular, Dreamweaver CS4, relative to its ability (or inability) to run on Lion?
Thanks.
