UPLOAD dreamweaver 3 website into Dreamweaver CS6?

How do I upload my website made in Dreamweaver 3 (old MAC) to my new Dreamweaver CS6 software ( on a 10.5 MAC)?
I did find the old website folder and it seemed to pick it up. I have no idea how to link the FTP host site. Also, is there an easy to follow book available? My site is very basic.
Many Thanks!!!
AJOY

Your website files do not reside in DW. They are stored on your local computer in a single folder we call the root folder.
That folder and its files needs to be copied to the new MAC
DW just talks to that folder using a site definition.
If your old MAC is still functioning, you could export its site definition (a .ste file) and import it to DW on the new MAC.
If the old machine is dead, simply define your site on the new machine.

  • How to upload dreamweaver CS6 on my computer

    Hello,
    I've received all the details concerning the licence for dreamweaver CS6 and once installed in my programm when I select the icone to have to be installed as software, I filled the shield for number of serie ans start the installation. At the begining, the time seems normal and then I start to grow the time to install and stop at around 24% on the installation and it is written that it will take around 476 minutes but the screen is frozen.
    Regards

    Sounds like a bad install.  Try running the cleaner and try again.

  • Need details on how to move existing website to Dreamweaver CS6 and to Business Catalyst web hosting

    Hi All,
         I need assistance with transferring an existing website  - imagessays.com  -  (designed with Dreamweaver CS4) to my Creative Cloud CS6 account - and to web hosting by CS6 Business Catalyst.
       …  step-by-step instructions would be most useful.  I've got the Dreamweaver CS6 onDemand book, etc.,  ...  I guess I’m just not enough of a geek to work my way through the steps and to get my site back moving ahead online.
        Beyond that, need advice as to how to repair a couple of non-funcitonal links on the site (check out imagessays.com to see a couple of pics that don't work).  I'm looking forward to uploading more content and to do major upgrade to the site, but am unable to do so ... need technical support re how to do these simple (should be) things.
        Since setting up the website over 5 years ago, I have migrated from Dreamweaver CS3 to CS4 .... and now to CS6 ...  and from a Dell XPS 450 running Windows XP to a Mac Pro desktop running Mac OS X.
    These changes of version / machine / OS  have separated me from the ability to do the one simple thing that I need to do with this straightforward website, that is:  upload new pitchers and writins .
    I look forward to assistance and support for this.
    Thanks,
    Jim

  • How do I "open-website" to open a Microsoft Frontpage 2003 website in Dreamweaver CS6?

    I just purchased Dreamweaver and have several websites created and maintained only in Frontpage 2003 until now. I cannot find a way to "open-website" or "import-website" or "convert-website" or any other way to open my existing Frontpage 2003 websites into Dreamweaver CS6. Has anyone else done this?

    If you want to create a DW site from existing files on your desktop...
    Site >  New Site
    Give it a name and http address (if you have one)
    Next
    Next
    Select Edit Local Copies...
    Browse to the folder your local files are in (or to the folder you want to download your files to)
    Next
    Set your FTP info
    Next
    Done
    It's nearly the same if you want to grab files from the server. Instead of browsing to a folder with files in it, you browse to a folder you want to put your files in. Once you have the FTP set up and click Done, you'll have an empty Files tab in DW. Connect to the server (circular arrows) and click Get (down arrow) to get the entire site.

  • Can we design professional PHP websites in Dreamweaver CS6 ?

    Can we design professional PHP websites in Dreamweaver CS6 ?

    Dreamweaver is not a professional PHP IDE (integrated development environment). As such, it lacks PHP debugging capabilities and other features that a nice IDE has.
    But you can code PHP in Dreamweaver, and it does have pretty good PHP syntax checking. So yes, you can create a PHP website using Dreamweaver.
    A lot depends on what exactly you mean by "professional PHP website" and what your programming skill level is. The fact that you are asking this question tells me that your coding skills must not be great, because if they were, you would not need to ask this question. Dreamweaver is a much "friendlier" environment than a PHP IDE. You might find a PHP IDE like ZEND Studio to be overwhelming, in which case Dreamweaver would be your better choice.

  • 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

  • Why Can't I Copy/Paste Into Dreamweaver CS6?

    I am running Windows XP Professional w/ Service Pack 3 and I have Dreamweaver CS4 and CS6 installed. 
    When I work on sites in CS6 I find I'm having issues with copying and pasting.  It doesn't matter where I try to pull the information from, it won't paste into Dreamweaver CS6 (code view or design view). It seems to work fine in CS4, as well as every other application I try to paste to.
    I don't have CS4 and CS6 open simultaneously. I just kept CS4 because it had a bunch of info on other sites I need to transfer over, as well as testing CS6 before fully commiting to it.
    Any insight or help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have this problem, too, and it's driving me f'n crazy, too!
    While I'm happy other forum members are offering to help by asking diagnostic questions, why grill us over what we have installed and what we can and can't do? This is a problem shared by many users. Why is the burden of "proof' on our shoulders? No offense meant, Nancy and Murray, but are you going to be able to resolve this bug? Unless you work at Adobe, I doubt it! It's not something WE are doing.
    I've been using Dreamweaver since version 1.0 in 1998 or so, and I've never had this problem. It seems like something that should be pretty basic to identify and fix. Shouldn't Adobe be on these forums asking what programs we have installed on our machines and what we can and can't do? What help is it if a fellow forum member asks these questions? Adobe is a major corporation that should be listening to our issues, especially if we're forking over $600 PER YEAR for Creative Cloud!
    This problem needs to be fixed, and it needs to be fixed now. I can't work like this!

  • Upload my .APK file onto Google play error, after i build it with dreamweaver cs6

    then go to my google developer site to upload the .APK (which is app.apk) file but google says the following :
    UPLOAD FAILED
    You need to use a different package name because "com.example" is restricted
    You upload an APK that was signed in debug mode. You need to sign your APK in release mode.
    please help ..

    I write about my new tests,  I've found this good Google documentation URL : http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html ;-).
    I don't know if this method is more valid or even with my first method, but I downloaded the tools and I followed the method to create a keystore, with no success :
    I've created a keystore/ pair of keys, it's Ok :
      keytool -genkey -v -keystore certificatAutoSigne-2013.keystore -alias certificatAutoSigne-2013 -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
    But I don't understand where can I add the Google public key to sign my APK file, because the keystore isn't a text file !
    Secondly I've error message with this command line :
      jarsigner -verbose -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -keystore certificatAutoSigne-2013.keystore MyAPKFile
    Obviously an APK file already signed can't be re-signed. I don't know how to creat APK file no signed with ADT, do you know ?

  • Dreamweaver CS6 Templates not updating pages since i copied the website to a new computer

    Dreamweaver CS6 Templates not updating pages since i copied the website to a new computer
    First i install CS6 on the new computer
    copy the projects
    import the websites
    Now, when i change any template the pages do not update any more. New pages working correct. Also manuell updating works.
    Any Idea?
    Where are the info about the join template and the pages. Seems on the old computer - but where?
    Thx

    hm?
    now I made a new page from the template on the new machine - and find one difference:
    New Page:
    <!doctype html>
    <html lang="de"><!-- InstanceBegin template="Templates/mainvorlage.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->
    <head>....
    Old Page:
    <!doctype html>
    <html lang="de"><!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/mainvorlage.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->
    <head>...
    The slash / after template=" is not there on the new machine. If i remove the slash on the copied pages and restart dreamweaver then it works. A lot of work, but i can solve my problem this way.
    Maybe there is some checkbox for path handling...?

  • Dreamweaver CS6 - FTP changing my file permissions on upload???

    ORIGINAL POST: SEPT 19, 2012  http://forums.adobe.com/message/4784335#4784335
    Upgraded to cs6. All programs work perfect for me exceopt Dreamweaver.
    I have never expierenced this challenge however no matter what file(s) I upload dreamwever is chanign the file permissions.
    For instance if I upload an image to the sever the image won't appear. I check permissions and they are set to 0.  Same with files.
    I have to now go in to each item I upload and change permissions to 644 or 755 depending if its a file or directory.
    This is a Dreamweaver exclusive problem as it does not happen when I use Filezilla and Im working on 6 different servers.
    ONLY when I upload files with Dreamweaver CS6 do the file permissions change on upload. Cs5.5 no problem.
    Any ideas?
    Aloha!
    STILL NOT WORKING UPDATE:
    I was even on with India Adobe support doing a screen share and they watched in real time as I uploaded a file and Dreamweaver and it changed the permissions to 000. You can 'Get' a file with 775 permissions then 'Put' that same file and it will chanve to 000 permissions.
    Support failed to address this problem after 30 days and never called back.
    STILL NOT WORKING UPDATE: Changing ro SFTP seems to be a workaround.
    See Full Discussion here as I posted in the wrong area. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4784335#4784335

    I'm using DW6 version 12.2, and this problem is still happening.
    The permissions are defaulting to 0664, where I need them to be 0644.  Every time I create a new file, it defaults to 0664, and I'm unable (not permitted) to view that file online until I go in, using another FTP program, and change the permissions to 0644... or manually go in the slow-poke way using DW6 Remote View -> [file name] -> Set Permissions.
    Too bad there's no way to configure this in the Preferences area of DW6.

  • Problem uploading templates with liquid layouts and dreamweaver cs6

    Hi
    I have developed some templates in Dreamweaver CS6 and Liquid Layouts
    However when I want to preview them in a browser, they come out blank (No Data at all)
    I have tried this without Liquid and works fine, minor bugs that can be fixed like background image not visible
    It seems the problem its at the BC system
    Will appreciate help on this matter
    Thanks

    You should not be using Liquid in product sites, especially in templates since the whole liquid code breaks and does not render in several places.
    DW has no features to support liquid rendering either yet.
    It is something that is in Alpha.

  • Intergrating wordpress with Dreamweaver CS6

    I am new to Dreamweaver CS6 and trying to do  a website for a charity . They require to update and add photos to their website. Some one suggested wordpress.I want to design it in dreamweaver but can anyone suggest how to intergrate wordpress with Dreamweaver. There will be only 2 pages at the most the client will have to update every month.I tried to download word press but it automatically opens Dreamweaver CS6 and displays an error saying
    WordPress
      Error: PHP is not running
      WordPress requires that your web server is running PHP. Your server does not have PHP installed,      or PHP is turned off.
    i have it on the uniserver which has PHP already but what do I need to do for editable pages and secondly the error above, Please advice.

    OK, there are several issues here:
    Firstly, WordPress is a complete Content Management System. ALL of what you put up on that website will be done in WordPress, period.
    Here's how Dreamweaver can help:
    Dreamweaver can assist you in editing the stylesheet(s) for your WP page. But you'll need to add content using the WordPress interface, as all of your content will be located in a database and supplied from that Database.
    What Dreamweaver is complaining about is that you do not have a server set up as a testing server so that Dreamweaver can show you what is happening with the server-side code (php). In order to do this, you will have to install WAMP or MAMP on your computer.
    Or you could do what I did: Simply install WordPress on your remote host and don't use a testing server or designate that remote host as the testing server in Dreamweaver. (I have to confess, I never got MAMP to work correctly.)
    Many hosting providers give you "Softalicious" that will automate the installation of WordPress on your server. If you have that, simply run it and you're all set.
    If you don't, here are the steps to install WordPress on your server:
    Requirements:
    FTP Access
    An available MySQL Database
    The php software you wish to install
    Create the MySQL Database:
    Log into your Control Panel using the username and password provided by your Hosting Provider.
    Go to your "MySQL Databases" in your Control Panel (CPanel) and create a database
    Right below where you created the database, create a new user and password
    Underneath where you created the user, you'll see two dropdown boxes, one with the user and the other with the database name. Add that user to the database, giving it "ALL" permissions.
    *Note that the database and username has two parts: yourusername_databasename, and yourusername_username. For example, tester5_php1 and tester5_admin. You will need this for the software configuration.
    Upload files:
    Download WordPress from their site. Make sure you have the latest version.
    Locate the folder on your computer that contains all the files for WordPress. Create a new defined site in Dreamweaver, and drag the entire WordPress site into that defined website in Dreamweaver.
    Use Dreamweaver's FTP client to upload WordPress from your local computer to your remote host. On standard Linux/Apache webservers, you'll need to make sure that the Root Directory is set to /public_html/ or consult with your hosting provider to determine what the root directory is supposed to be.
    Run the installation:
    Typically accessing the installation folder directly in your web browser will lead you to the install page, otherwise you will need to refer to the documentation or README file for the location. Most of the installations are self explanatory and configure automatically. Either way, you will eventually need to provide the database information:
    Hostname: localhost
    db name: tester5_php1 (as you created in step 1)
    db username: tester5_admin (as you created in step 1)
    password: whatever password you created for the user in the database
    You may also me prompted to specify Administrative login information. This information is in no way related to your CPanel or hosting provider, but is the information you will need to log in to the software's administrative control panel.
    Once the installation is complete, WordPress will remove all installation directories so that nobody can mess up your installation by hacking in and re-running them.
    Log in.
    Now that you software is installed, it should give you a link to log in to the administrative control panel. This is where you will continue to develop this part of your website.

  • Dreamweaver CS6 not previewing embedded YouTube Videos

    I've created a simple page with a number of YouTube videos embedded on it but Dreamweaver CS6 will not preview the videos unless the page is uploaded to a web server first.
    I've gotten the embed code from YouTube and pasted it into the code window (in split view).  A grey box indicating the player shows up in the design window, but after saving the page and attempting to view it in Live View or previewing in Safari, the YouTube players won't load. 
    I did manage to get the the players to show only after uploading to a temporary website (http://www.omnimediaservices.com/orionvideos.html) but there should be a way to preview this in a browser at least before having to upload.

    I have the same problem as beerstine . I added the prefix as you suggested but for not.
    This is the code I pasted and fixed:
