Bug Reports

While I'm in Design Mode. It might be happening after I use Paste Special... Text Only.

The update I installed on 05/27/25 gave me hope that Dreamweaver would keep getting updates other than security, but instead it broke it even more: clicking on the design/live panel doesn't always select the corresponding code anymore (it would randomly happen before the update, but that involved it not working at all and having to close/reopen the file to fix it); writing code suddenly starts in one point and jumps into another part of the code panel, so if you're not paying attention to the screen, you will have to go back searching where you started to type to cut and paste what's in the wrong place back there; the help menu doesn't work anymore to submit bugs and to link to Adobe Forums; it caused the beach ball to appear and got unresponsive, and there's no other app that does that on this M1 Macbook Pro. And it still didn't correct one of the things that previous updates broke: select + grab + opt doesn't create a copy of code, there's actually no way to copy code and leave the o

Depuis la dernière mise à jour vers la version 21.5, les raccourcis clavier pour indenter le code ne fonctionne plus. De plus, même en modifiant les raccourcis les modifications ne sont pas prises en compte. Quelqu'un peut-il m'aider ?Merci d'avance

Hi, using Adobe Dreamweaver 21.5 Build 15662.I work on an Intel 1.70 GHz laptop with 16 GB RAM. Windows 11 Enterprise Version 24H2Trigger Keys no longer work on first entry. The trigger key word, when entered in code, displays in design view and the curser jumps over to design view also. I have to click back into code view and enter it again and it will then enter the code.Secondly, there is a major delay in entering Targets for URL's.Also, when adding text into the <title> tag in code view, it shows up in design view as an <h1> heading, along with the curser. I have to click back into code view, similar to the trigger key issue.Thanks.

Hi everybody,I have an issue with Dreamweaver that makes me loose a lot of time. This has been going on for many months despite DW updates. And I'm experiencing this problem on all my PCs and operating systems (Windows 10 and 11) so I think it's a bug of DW since the last versions.I used to use the "STATUS" column in Dreamweaver's Design Notes to clearly display the status of files (Draft, Revision 1, Revision 2, etc.).It doesn't work anymore (for months). Even though I associate columns with the "STATUS" Design Notes, this column always remains empty."Etat" is Status in French. As I work on thousands of file I really need to see directly in the file panel the status of each one. Thanks for your help. 

Hello!I have a very annoying problem. When I start the program Shift + Enter (for line break) works, but after a while it does not. After restart of the programit it works again for a while.Any suggestions to get rid of this?Best ReagradsFredrik

I am having a weird issue on Dreamweaver v21.5 (Windows) that is severely affecting my ability to work. This did not happen in v21.4 or earlier. I typically work with two tabs open, in "Combine as Tabs" view. See attached screengrab.  Now, in order to successfully change focus, I now have to click in the "Design" pane up top, or the tiny target of the title bar. And then to edit code I have to click again, in the lower, "Code" pane. Before v21.5, I could just click on either of the two Code panes to switch focus between the two pages. Note that the pane on the left is currently the frontmost page, as indicated by the title bar being white instead of grey. BUT... counterintuitively, my cursor is actually in the page on the right (you can't see it on this screengrab, but it's on line 3), and if I type code it will appear in the page on the right. So, while I am typing, I would normally expect any keystrokes to affect the page on the right, where I am typing.

I have a recurring problem where Dreamweaver 24.1 is not displaying my code.  Restarting does fix the error, but then my code is already messed up. When typing, it shows me the code that I want, but upon save, I will find that my code is actually a bunch of messed up placements and syntax errors.  I discovered this as I went to copy and paste my code to share with someone and it added extra brackets where there weren't any in my CSS.  I write my own code, I do not use the WYSIWYG design functions, I only view for display. or to copy and paste repeating patterns.I was cleaning up some old code, converting it to html5.  Dreamweaver had been running for a long period of time.I did not take a screenshot, as I really didn't intend to bother anyone about it, but ended up here when looking for a way to clear out my cache, which doesn't seem to be located anywhere one would think it should be, not in AppData locations, not in Program Files, where mine is apparentl

I currently have Adobe  Dreamweaver 2024 version 21.4 on my Mac computer. I am trying to open a dreamweaver on my computer, it keeps being frozen and stuck on the  "Initializing Files" screen and never loads. I've tried Force quitting and restarting the program, resetting the preferences and site settings, uninstalling it and installing it again, deleting all library > preferences and application support files and reinstalling my mac computer. I provided a screenshot. After its stuck on the start up, a prompt will pop up that says " Manage sites " and " csncel " but then it quickly dissapears and is just a blank gray box.     What do I do? 

Hello,I've got 2000 websites installed and I can not anymore pass from one to another with the Files bar.How to fix that please, or to access a site in 1 click ?Currently, I must do Sites - manage websites - click on DoneThanks 

I have an issue where Dreamweaver 2021 converts UTF-8 encoded files into US-ASCII when it opens the files. Consequently, some symbols (e.g. ¥) get changed to garbage. The files are CakePHP CTP files. They don't have encoding meta at the start of the file (it's in a header file instead). I think DW uses the meta encoding tag to work out the encoding used to decide what format to use when opening the file. In Preferences, I have already set default encoding for new files to UTF-8, and also selected the option 'use when opening existing files that don't specify an encoding'.Is there a way that I can make DW identify UTF-8 files correctly? 

Liebe Community, Seit etwa zwei Monaten habe ich das Problem, dass Bilder, die ich seit Ewigkeiten nicht bearbeitet oder verändert habe, einfach nicht mehr hochgeladen werden. Folgende Fehlermeldung kommt:Google und diverse Foren spucken nichts aus. Wäre super, wenn mir jemand einen Tipp geben könnte!

After updating to Sonoma, I launched Dreamweaver (v21.1), and now I can't see any code in any document, just blank grey. There's no cursor. Viewing with 'Design' shows a janky version of previously created pages, but viewing with 'Code' shows nothing, and 'Split' shows the janky page, but the code area is blank. I've tried updating DW to 21.4, but every time, the progress icon stalls at 93%, then I get the note "Progress is slower than usual. Working on resolving the issue…" Then it tells me, "Update failed." I'm dead in the water. Grateful for any help.

After typing a line of CSS and choosing Edit > Code > Apply Source Formatting, the entire line is deleted.Undo also does not work in this case (does not undo the deletion, or bring back the line of code), so it is just gone. (Screen capture attached.) I use the auto formatting constantly, so this is a critical bug for me.

Double click on word to select the word is not working correctly in some circumstances.  Sometimes it leaves a letter out of the selection which negates the speed of double clicking a word.

While working from home I noticed my shortcut from emmet is not working. the only change I have made is to use the company VPN. Once I am at my office, the shortcuts are working. Is there a way to workaround this, without turning off my VPN? 

Version: 21.4Platform and OS version: Windows version 22H2 OS build: 19045.4291Basic steps to reproduce the problem: This happens with most dialogue boxes that I've tried - open file, define servers, create new site.  Then minimize Dreamweaver or tab out and tab back in.  Expected result: Tabbing in and out with the program remaining usable.Actual result: The dialogue box disappears, and the app becomes unusable until you use Task Manager to kill it and then reopen it.

Good Morning, I am running Dreamweaver 21.3 15593 Build on Mac OS Sonoma 14.2. Dreamweaver will randomly hang up and I have to force quit and restart the application. I have two macs and they both have this issue.  Thank You,

I just purchased a new Mac and bought the Creative Cloud mainly for Dreamweaver.  It immediately goes to "Not Responding" upon trying to open.  I have Sonoma 14.2 with an M3 chip.  Is there going to be a fix soon or do I need to cancel my subscription?

I have Macbook Pro with M2 Pro. When i try to open and edit any template in Dreamweaver always freeze and crash. I can't use Dreamweaver. What should i do ?   macOS Sonoma 14.1.2 Dreamweaver 21.3

Using DW 21.3 on Macbook Pro 16 (m1) running MacOS 14.1. Right-clicking and selecting Function sub-menu. If you DON"T select a function and click outside the menu to dismiss it it freezes every time. It used to freeze even more and more randomly until I reset preferences. This improved the situation but it still freezes.

When using the external link checker, I am unable to save the results to a text file. Dreamweaver 2021 crashes, and the information saved to the text file is the broken link report instead. Site, Site Options, Check Links Sitewide.Change the selector to External Links.A list of external links is displayed.Right-click in the results and select Save Results...Specify a text file name and location.Click Save.Dreamweaver crashes and reports that an error has occurred. I have sent several of these crash reports to Adobe.Open the text file that is created. It lists the broken links for the site, not the external links. 

It's been a while I'm having issues to replace text in a html file and can't find a solution. When I use the "find and replace" function, it often replaces only a part of the wanted text and I have to relaunch to process, sometime several times, to replace all instances of the same text.Has any of you experienced the same issue? I'm using the up-to-date version of Dreamweaver (21.3), on a macOS Monterey but even with previous configurations, the issue occured.
