Windows7 + Dreamweaver CS4 + ColdFusion version ___?

*sigh* New computer with Windows 7. New CS4 Suite, including Dreamweaver. Many sites to maintain with ColdFusion.
ColdFusion 9 says it doesn't like Windows 7.
Advice? ColdFusion 8?  Is that kosher w/Windows 7 and CS4?
Oh, and I plan those pages locally then load to our hosting/server remotely. Want the local CF functionality and that nifty 'live view' feature to work... Locally before I post. I am not super sophisticaed with CF (could you tell? ) but I checked and our hosting provider uses CF8.
MANY THANKS OH WISE ONES!!!
JL

Many thanks for your assistance and all apologies for the confusion.
On the Adobe web site, it states that "Windows 7 is not supported" under the ColdFusion 9 page. I took that to mean it was not compatible or at least not reviewed.
I have not installed any version of CF yet to avoid such problems I was trying to be pro-active and asking for assistance to AVOID mistakes rather than whimsically try things and then run to the forum and ask for assistance. All apologies for being pro-active.
As for CF 8, most searches on the site left limited information as the Adobe site tends to nest older versions of applications in favor of promoting new versions. I could not find any information on CF 8 and Windows 7.
So...
Does CF 8 (which, yes, I would prefer to run as it's compatible with my hosting server) also run well on Windows 7? This too is a pro-active question.
Many thanks.
Regards,
JL

    I am not sure exactly what extensions that you are talking
    about, but
    ColdFusion 8 Code Coloring and static object Code Hints have
    been
    integrated into DW CS4.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 attempted to free unallocated memory bug

    Dreamweaver CS4 Mac version 10.0.0.4117 has a fatal bug.  It is trying to free up unallocated memory.  Most likely, it is trying to free the pointer twice, which ended up attempting to free memory that does not belong to it.  This corrupts the system memory, and bring down Snow Leopard, causing the notorious freeze problem in Snow Leopard.
    See the system log, right after Dreamweaver crashed, it corrupted the system memory, causing Safari to freeze right after that:

  • Dreamweaver CS4 compatible with Windows 7 and 8?

    I still work with Dreamweaver CS4 (student version) which is until now still good enough for me.
    On my desktop I still have XP and on my Laptop Vista.
    But due to HD filming and probably Office 2013 I need a new desktop and also need to upgrade my Laptop.
    As all new desktops have windows 8 can anyone tell me if dreamweaver cs4 will still run properly under this?
    And if I upgrade my laptop to Windows 7 (I still have a free upgrade) will it run under that one too?
    As I still have a student version, the purchase of a new dreamweaver would be expensive for the time being.
    Thanks already for your information

    can anyone tell me why my firefox asnd internet exployer both keep freezing up when i try to download the trial version of dreamweaver cs4?  I have  called tech support adobe and they can not give me a solution.

    This is the only technote that I could find relating to downloading CS4 products.

    See if anything there applies to you.  Other than that, I have no idea why it would crash 2 different browsers - sorry.

  • Trial version of Dreamweaver CS4 for testing - co-exist with CS3?

    I am very interested in trying InContext.  However it requires Dreamweaver CS4 to do anything.  I noted a way to download a trial version.  My concern however is that I have the CS3 version installed, and I need to know if the two can co-exist or if loading CS4 is going to disable/remove CS3.  It would be helpful to know if the same answer applies for both Mac and Windows cases.
    If InContext either is not a better solution to my needs that Contribute, or if the costs are too high then I would not anticipate buying the CS4 version (apparently I would have to upgrade the whole CS3 Master Collection I have in order to accomplish that - no small expense) and I don't want to run into a problem.

    Hello Bobxyzyy,
    Yes, you can install the Dreamweaver CS4 trial without affecting your installation of Dreamweaver CS3 on both Mac and Windows. They will install into separate directories by default.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 and Coldfusion 8 - help on configuration

    Hi Guys,
    I'm not a Coldfusion user and I cant find anything from the support docs. I hope you can shed some light on my issue. I really need some help on this.
    Here's my set up:
    Dreamweaver CS4/CS3 installed on a Win XP Pro SP2 machine
    Coldfusion 8 installed on Windows 2003 server (http://[servername]:8500). IIS is also running on the server.(http://[servername])(Testing Server)
    Coldfusion 8 is located in C:\Coldfusion
    wwwroot = C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot
    Coldfusion is on Trial mode right now. Installed as a self-contained server (first radio button in installation)
    Built in webserver was selected also during the installation
    RDS Password enabled
    Issue:
    When I define a site in Dreamweaver CS4/CS3, I cannot connect to the Coldfusion part of the testing server.
    I tried both Local/Network and FTP but I can't connect.
    Here's the sample information the i put in the site definition of Dreamweaver under the Advanced Tab.
    1st example:
    Category: Testing Server
    Access: FTP
    FTP Host: [servername]:8500
    Host Directory: /test
    username: [username]
    password: [password]
    URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/test
    ** I tried checking and unchecking the checkboxes under password
    Error: FTP Error Occured
    2nd example:
    Category: Testing Server
    Access: Local/Network
    Testing Server Folder: [servername]:8500\test
    URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/test
    Here's the interesting part on this setup. When I go to the Basic tab to test the connection for the testing server, I get this message, "[servername]:8500\temp.html contains an invalid path". After I hit OK, "The URL Prefix test was successful." message appears
    My Questions:
    what's wrong with my setup? Is my prefix correct?
    what else do i need to configure?
    is Coldfusion conflicting with the IIS on my server? Should I configure Coldfusion to work with IIS rather than setting it up as a built in webserver?
    What questions do I need to ask? XD
    I hope someone can help me on this or guide me to the right path. I can access the files when type http://servername:8500 on the browser though.
    Help please? Thanks in advance!
    -dis

    Port 8500 is the port the built in web server is listing to to respond to client requests.  To view ColdFusion code on the server you would put http://servername:8500/myCFMLfile.cfm in a browser.
    To have your Dreamweaver help you write these files you just need to tell it how you want to connect to servername.
    For FTP you would need FTP enabled on servername and be able to FTP to c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\ on servername.  Then you would set up something like this in Dreamweaver
    FTP HOST: servername
    Host Directory: ???
    (depends on what your FTP root is for the FTP server on servername and how it relates to c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\
    username: ...
    password: ...
    URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/
    (What you would put into the URL of a browser.)
    For Local/Network you just write the file to the c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\ directory on servername.  This assumes that this directory is shared and available to users over the network.  Which it probably is by the little known drive hidden share default on most windows systems.
    Access: local/network
    Testing Server Folder: \\servername\c$\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\
    (Or other UNC path to the desired network folder)
    URL Prefix: http://servername:8500/
    (Still what you put into the URL of a browser)

  • Dreamweaver CS4 keeps adding tr to my code..

    Hello,
    I have Dreamweaver CS4 Version 10.0 build 4117.  I am coding with ColdFusion and Dreamweaver keeps adding errant <tr > tags to my code.  I have even identified this in 3 different files at the exact line in which it adds the <tr > tag.  WTF?
    Can someone at adobe fix this?

    Usually that type of thing happens when you have an error somewhere in your html that DW is trying to correct for you.
    Run your page in the validator at http://validator.w3.org to see if you're missing something that DW is trying to fix.
    You may also want to check your settings under Edit > Preferences > Code Rewriting > uncheck invalidly nested and unclosed tags

  • Can't see Remote data in Dreamweaver CS4

    I have a site that I have had for years and recently changed from a real old version of Dreamweaver to Dreamweaver CS4.  I had trouble getting my FTP to work so I used an external program to move the files.  The files have been uploaded and the site is active on the Internet so I know there are there.
    When I use Dreamweaver, the only thing I can see is the "/" that represents the root folder.  All the site definitions say that it can connect to my server, it just does not show the files.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks, Fred

    Hi,
    here I'll quote a hint from Nancy O. for DW applications:
    Try toggling Passive and/or Secure FTP on/off.
    Your web host might have changed upload requirements to improve security.
    Another thing to check is your Anti-virus and Firewall settings. If they are too restrictive, DW may not have permission to connect to the remote server.

  • Extension Manager CS4 not installing extensions in Dreamweaver CS4

    Just installed CS4 Design Premium. Now i want to install some
    extensions to Dreamweaver.
    When I click on the extension to install it I get a message
    from the Extension Manager saying:
    "This extension can not be installed, it products requires
    Dreamweaver 6 or greater. To install this extension, please try to
    install Dreamweaver CS4 or use Extension Manager CS3 which works
    with Adobe CS3 and earlier products."
    I have even tried to install it by opening the Extension
    Manager from Dreamweaver via the
    Commands menu, with the same results.
    - I have version 2.0.274 of Adobe Extension Manager CS4.
    - I do not see the Dreamweaver icon in Extension Manager's
    product list*
    - I tried to reinstall Dreamweaver
    (which also reinstalled Extension Manager)
    - Easy to forget; I am on a Mac
    - The extensions should be okay, as they install quite nice
    in Dreamweaver CS3
    I tried to look for a
    plist to edit, but as I do not really know what to look for
    this action failed.
    *in the same order i find the icons of Flash CS4, Fireworks
    CS4, Photoshop CS4, Indesign CS4, Illustrator CS4 and Bridge CS4 in
    the products list.

    What extensions are you trying to install?

  • 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!

  • Problems to Download Dreamweaver CS4 with Akamai Download Manager!

    I want to download Dreamweaver CS4 Italian Windows Trial version.
    I have Internet Explorer 7, PC with OS Windows XP x64bit Corporate, Core2Quad Q9650, Motherboard MSI P45Platinum with Ethernet 10/100/1000,
    4GBRAM,3 HDD 500GB WesternDigital,Nvidia GeForce 9400GT.
    I have installed "Akamai Download Manager ActiveX" control asked on the top of window popup.
    Clicked Yes:Installation confirmation.
    But I have tried to click the button "Download" and just one window with this message appears and disappears immediately:
    Per scaricare il software è necessario installare Akamai Download Manager...
    Problemi di download?
    Assistenza per il download...
    Il sistema non dispone dei requisiti minimi per eseguire Akamai Download Manager.
    (The system doesn't meets the minimum system requirements to run Akamai Download Manager.)
    I can't download anything. Why?
    I have disable Pop-ups Blocker, and disabled also Anti-Phishing Filter.
    Disabled also Antivirus and the Firewall.
    Set and lowered Security Protection from Tools>Internet Options: to "Medium"; and also, another time, set to "Personalized" with all the controls
    switched to "Active".
    Set Privacy>Settings>"Accetta tutti i cookie"(lowered to full bottom).
    I have read this Akamai Download Manager FAQ:
    -"Nothing happens when I click the download link"
    If nothing happened after you clicked the download link, either your pop-up blocker or a high security setting on your web browser may have stopped
    the Akamai DLM window from opening.
    If you have a pop-up blocker enabled in your web browser or in your Internet toolbar (such as the Yahoo! toolbar or the Google toolbar), you will
    need to disable your pop-up blocker to start your download. For additional information, and for instructions on changing your security setting, see
    the "Akamai Download Manager system requirements" (ServiceNote kb400530).
    Note: The download manager can sometimes take up to a minute to load. Please allow time for the initial loading before assuming there is a problem
    Thus, I have followed this rules in Akamai Download Manager System Requirements:
    Internet Explorer 7
    1) Access your Internet options from the Windows Control Panel (Internet Options) or by selecting Tools > Internet Options in Internet Explorer
    2) Select the Security Tab
    3) Click Custom Level
    4) Scroll through the list of security options and set:
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Download signed ActiveX controls > Enable or Prompt
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Enable or Prompt
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting > Enable or Prompt
    -Downloads > File download > Enable
    -Miscellaneous > Allow script-initiated windows without size or position constraints > Enable
    -Scripting > Active scripting > Enable
    5) Click OK
    6) Click OK again
    But nothing changes.
    On my PC I have also this installation: "J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5" and "Java(TM)6 Update 15".
    But the download doesn't start at all.
    1) How can I do to download Dreamweaver CS4-Windows-ITALIAN language?
    2) Is it possible to download 364.8 MegaBytes without Akamai Download Manager?
    Please Hurry!
    Horsepower0171.

    another option you may have is resettofactory
    start- run- type:
    cmd
    press enter
    type:
    cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
    press enter
    type:
    loader.exe /resettofactory
    press enter
    please perform a backup first
    test your browser before you restore your backup, and to be ssafe I would do a selective restore
    open DTM, go to backup/restore- advanced
    top left click on file-open
    find your backup, it will load on the left side
    you current working BB will be on the right side
    transfer ONLY the absolute important databases from the left to the right(address, cal, phone logs, messages, sms, tasks, memo)... dont do any that you dont know and dont do any OPTIONS ones

  • 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

    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

  • Error Installing Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows 7: Installer Database is Corrupt

    Error Message: The Installer Database is Corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer Service.
    I bought a new laptop and would like to install Dreamweaver CS4 on it. It is already running fine on my desktop, being installed back in 1/2011. Both PCs are Windows 7 but the new laptop is Windows 7 Professional.  I have downloaded the two install files ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.7z and ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.exe multiple ways and to multiple locatons on the laptop. I've run the .exe file multiple ways and extracted to several locations besides the default (c:\users\userid\Desktop\Adobe CS4). After the extract completes and it tries to run setup I get the same message "The Installer Database is corrupt. Please Contact Adobe Customer Service" (which I did and they just gave me another download link I had already tried).
    I even copied the folder with the extracted files done on my desktop (where the install had succeeded). And still got the same message when I ran setup.exe on the laptop. I tried running it with a "run as administrator" command prompt, double-clicking in Windows Explorer, start > run and the same thing happens. At least it doesn't appear that it has actually installed anything yet.
    I did notice that my new PC has a program called "7-zip 9.20" installed which I do not remember installing and its install date is prior to my purchase of the PC so I'm guessing it came with it (HP Pavilion 15t running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The Windows 7 Desktop does not have this program installed. It is available from C|net where it has a good rating. Perhaps setup.exe does further extracting and the 7-zip program is the culprit? This is a long shot.
    I searched for others with this problem and found lots of issues installing Dw CS4, but none quite like this.

    Awesome! That worked! Actually I searched three folders (Program Files, Program Files (x86) & Program Data) for caps.db and found:
    c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premier Elements\caps.db (dated 9/2/2011)
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Backup\caps.db
    I ignored the first one since it might be needed by the Premier Elements 10 I installed yesterday and changed the name of the other one from caps.db to barb.fix.
    I changed the install folder from c:\Program Files\Adobe to c:\Program Files (x86) just in case CS4 is a 32-bit application which I had done before when installing on my Windows7 Desktop. Now that the install has completed I see that I have caps.db files dated 5/5/2014 in
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\caps\caps.db
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\backup\caps.db (barb.fix is still there but is only 26kb vs 3291 kb for the new caps.db)
    Thank-you so much! Now wish me luck when I try to open it for the first time!

  • 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...
