Using Dreamweaver CS4 I can't connect to FTP

I loaded Adobe Dreamweaver on my new laptop which is loaded with WIndows 7. I added the site information that I used in the past. I then clicked on the button to "connects to remote host" and I get the following error message.
An FTP error occured - cannot make connection to host. The remote host cannot be found.
What do I need to do in order to resolve this issue so I can connect and upload my pages to the web.
Sean

The only thing that I can think of is the site definition are not correct. Do you create an .ste file and import? If so,did you change any information since you did the export? I would double check the remote information in your site definitions.
Sorry I dont have any other suggestions.

How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?

How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?
I have cs4. I gave up on using MS sql as a datasource. I finally got a php successfull connection in my PHP web page.
I would like a nice video tutorial for creating a dynamic menu.
I guess i can style it by attaching a css file to the page. Are their any already designed css files out there in some online area?
i am not a good designer. so i would like to simply have a collection of menu_style.css files and choose what looks good.
But first i need to build the spry menu from the mysql database.
Any help is apprechiated.
My first choice was to maintain the data in an MS sql server file. If i could directly attach to an ms sql datasource then that would be the best option.
I dont think i want to have to re-generate an XML datasource each time i add or modify the menu. I would like to maintain the MS Sql or mySql file instead.
If i could generate an XML datasource from the MS Sql database then I may even prefere that, but i have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to do that and not had any success. So i prefere working in MS sql but would settle for mySql if i had to.
Thanks
Jerry

To create a dynamic menu take a look here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/MenuFromNestedData.html#

Then remains the manner in which you create the XML file which can be found here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/utils/query2xml.html
One you have your menu up and running, you will be able to apply styles and effects

Issues editing Layouts using Dreamweaver CS4 (ShopOnline)

Hi Everyone,
I am having Issues editing Layouts using Dreamweaver CS4 (ShopOnline). May be someone has encounter this problem. When I open the large_product.html in dreamweaver (after installing the extension for BC) the file opens, but when I go to the property inspector, I can not modify any of the css rules currently defined and no css is linked to this file. I looked at all the available css's and I could not find any with the defined rules in this page.
I need help. Thanks.

It must be a module template layout that is being used. If you're on the latest interface it's under
Site Manager > Module Templates > Online Shop Layouts > Individual Product (small or large)
and if you're on the older interface it's
Ecommerce > Products > Advanced Layout customization (under the “related” box at the bottom right)

Problem Inserting Flash Video (.flv) File in Page Using Dreamweaver CS4's Insert Media Command

I am using Dreamweaver CS4.
I am attempting to put a Flash Video (.flv) file on a standard HTML page in Dreamweaver.
When I either click the Insert Flash Video in the Common tab on the Dreamweaver toolbar, or if I choose Insert > Media > FLV to inert the video, I get the standard Dreamweaver FLV interface. I make my choices, click OK, and when the video is place on the page, I get the following dialog box:
"While executing inspectSelection in flvProgressive.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
with an OK button.
If I preview the page, all that loads are the various buttons of the skin that I have chosen and no video.
Anyone have an idea what is going on?
maylandmac

Are you sure you aren't working with a template driven page?
When you insert media files into DW, it must write code in the <head> tags to reference Scripts necessary for Flash media to work on the web.
If you're working with a page that was created from a Template, the DWT page must have editable regions in the <head> tags, or you won't be able to add media to your web pages.

Can't connect to ftp on business catalyst

hi,
I can't connect to ftp server, Im using file-zilla and I wrote my domain name for host name, I wrote my email address for user name when I acces to admin panel and I wrote my admin pass. but I can't connect. I guess I mistake somewhere.

Hi,
I also have this same exact issue.
In Dreamweaver CC......
I go to Site and Manage Sites. I click the "Import Business Catalyst Site" button. At this point, I am prompted for my Adobe Creative Cloud username and password (which happens to be the exact login and password I login to the Business Catalyst Administration Portal with). I am then greeted with a list of my BC Sites. I select the site I desire, select a directory to store my files, and the site is created. I then try to connect to the FTP server and it is a no go. I have tried the connection from 2 Different Windows 8.1 computers.
My settings in Dreamweaver CC are imported automatically. I have also tried changing the wordsecuresystems.com to businesscatalyst.com and it does not work either.
Connect Using: SFTP
SFTP Address: mydomain.worldsecuresystems.com
Username: mydomain.worldsecuresystems.com/[email protected]/dw
(Yes I have tried taking the "/dw" on the end out of the username)
Password: Same password I use to login to BC Administrator Console.
Root Directory: /
Web URL: http://mydomain.businesscatalyst.com/
Thank you for any help you can provide.
Thanks,
Eric

Maybe you need to do Port Forwarding on your router...Check for the Port Numbers for your FTP Server...

Getting Data From MySQL Database using Dreamweaver CS4 Built In Functions

Hi,
I am really in need of some help if you don't mind.
I basically have a website with user regsitration system etc and so on.
I basically connected to my Data Base in Dreamweaver CS4 and now want to use the tools in Dremweaver CS4 to display Data from database.
Problem is i see the tools but not really sure how i use them. I see on Data bar all the tools to view, update delete records etc.
I basically created a page where i want to display all the records in the DB. I done this using dynamic data selecting what fields to display etc and 15 records per page.
When i view the page in localhost thou it is only showing 1 record althou i have like 5 users in my test db.
So if anyone can really tell me how i go about displaying data from db that be great. When i learn how to do that i probably will understand and learn how to update records etc.
Thanks

To display all records, you need to apply a repeat region to the paragraph, div, or table row that contains the dynamic text objects for the database results. You might also find it helpful to follow the dynamic application tutorial in the Adobe Developer Connection.

How to enter excell formulas into a webpage using Dreamweaver CS4

I am new at dreamweaver and recently purchased CS4 web premium. I also bought some training videos from an Abode affilated training center on dreamweaver CS4. I was wondering how to create or hide formulas into a webpage. I am trying to enter my MS excel calculator into a webpage. Can anyone help me?
thanks
Mike

Unfortunately this will not work directly in DW.
You probably have 2 alternatives and that is, A - use JavaScript (if you are new to DW/webdesign probably not an option). B - See if there is an extension or plug-in for doing something similar.
For pre-built extensions for DW try: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=productHome&exc=3&loc=en_us
An alternative (you would have to copy/paste the code yourself would be one of the following (also check with the Microsoft site as this is (hopefully) something that may have come up before)).

Wireless printing to Canon MX310 fails using D-Link Router - Can't Connect

I recently bought a D-Link wireless router (320), which supports wireless printing and I am trying to set it up to work with MBP. I set it up to run with Windows XP and it works fine with no problems, but with my MBP it won't work. Here is a screen shot showing the XP set up and the printer server info from the router (bottom).
http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/1645/printerq.jpg
From this, I've been using the following information to add the printer,
Protocol: HP Jetdirect - Socket
Address: 192.168.0.1
Queue: lp1
The printer shows up as idle in the printer selection menu. When I print it goes through the following messages,
Connecting to Printer...
Printer Online...
Printing...
And then the queue clears itself as if it printed, but nothing ever comes out of the printer. At first I assumed it was a problem with the router, but when I tested it with Windows it doesn't have any hang-ups.
Any help would be appreciated with this, as I've read several posts and tried all recommendations but nothing will work. I'm also curious if I have the "Queue" in the printer dialogue right, or if it should be 9100. Thanks in advance!

Based on your Windows port configuration, your Mac printer queue configuration is reasonably correct. Although based on your Windows port configuration, you don't seem to require a queue name of lp1 - this would normally be required for LPD connections.
Your issue will be with the driver used. The Canon Mac drivers cannot be used when you have the printer connected to the USB port of a wireless router or print server (although the exception to this rule is an Airport device). When you have the printer connected via USB to a router or being shared by Windows, then you need to use a CUPS-based driver like Gutenprint or PrintFab (yes I know the Canon driver says CUPS but it is not true CUPS).
The Gutenprint tends to be the preferred driver because it is free, however your MX310 is not listed as a supported model so you would have to experiment with using a model that is supported and this can waste a lot of time and ink/paper.
PrintFab (www.printfab.net) costs 49 Euro but it does support your MX310. A trial version is also available so you could see if the printer does work before making a purchase.
One final note. For your Windows queue you don't need to add the colon 9100 after the IP address. The fact that you have selected RAW and have 9100 set for the Port Number is adequate.

Mac using Acrobat Pro v9 can't connect to shared review hosted on Sharepoint server.

A person at our company has a Mac with Acrobat Pro v9 and can't connect to our shared review hosted on a Sharepoint server. The shared review is initiated from a PC using Acrobat Pro X.
They can access/login to the Sharepoint server via Safari on the same computer both inside the company and from outside.
They used to have it working just fine for months, then suddenly (recently) it stopped working and it just keeps saying that it can't connect.
When trying to connect, Acrobat doesn't ask for credentials. I've tried hunting down where those credentials are stored to try and delete them to force it to ask again, but no luck there either.
I also have a Mac (but I'm running Acrobat Pro XI and now DC) and I can access the same shared review that doesn't work for them. And I can't seem to break it for me (as an effort to figure out their problem).
Any helpful guidance on how to get things back on track would be greatly appreciated. My head hurts from beating it against my desk. :-|
Thanks!

Several of us encountered the same issue running MAC OS X on Acrobat Pro XI. I'm tagging your question to see if someone provides a solution.

In dreamweaver CS4, I can't make border for single cell

Hi folks,
Having given up trying to make a single cell border in the dreamweaver CS4 template, I reverted to an html page and put in my own header, 2 columns and footer as cells in the html table. I know there's html code for adding borders to single cell, but I can't find it. I hope someone can give me a sample line of html code for giving a cell a border on left side and on right side, including 1px solid color border. Anyone?

Not sure if this is what you want, at least it will give you an example

Getting Website on Search Engines? I used Dreamweaver CS4.

I have a website that was launched recently, which was created with Dreamweaver CS4. After using some search engines, I found that on some of them, some of my pages were appearing on the first page - however, none of them are the home page. Of the pages that do appear, some of them don't even contain the keywords that I typed in to the search engine.
Here's my question: what do I need to do to get my website higher up on search engines?

Hi,

Does anyone have any idea why someone would send me a .xml file and 3 reasource files and say DreamWeaver can put them togther somehow to create a program? Thank you for your time...
