dreamweaver crashing 2024

I'm sure nobody will hear my cries. There is no support from Adobe. However. I have a website that I have had going for at least the past three years. I just opened the Dreamweaver to add something to it and it is obvious that Dreamweaver is not attaching the template and/or the css properly. When I look at the code, there are fragments of code where there should be whole lines. Corrupted? I guess that's what it is. It was okay a few weeks ago when I opened it to do something similar. Somehow, sitting there, on my computer, it totally f---ed up.  Luckily, it is not bad on the internet. My website (actually there are two of them) still look okay, but need updates. I have been fiddling with it for three days now and nothing has improved except the amount of stomach acid I make. I even tried deleting and reinstalling the software, but nothing changed. I'm seriously looking for another webpage producer.  I have done a screen shot of how my page ends in the code.  Mid wo

Dreamweaver CS5.5 - Activation Limit Reached

I have used Dreamweaver CS5.5 very sparingly, only enough to generate <html> coding for webpage structure; however I purchased this software many years ago and now I am unable to activate it because it returns activation attempts with the message "Activation limit reached for Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5"I re-installed an old SSD on my older laptop and opened a valid version of Dreamweaver CS5.5 and followed the steps to deactivate that copy.  I received the message that deactivation was successful, so I thought that I had succeeded and met the criteria for activation on a new device.  However, I still get the error message when attempting to activate Dreamweaver CS5.5 on a newer laptop.  Who can I reach out to for help.  I cannot go to customer support because I do not have any active subscriptions. There must be a way to reconcile this. There is no option in my Adobe account to help me see older activations and delete them from my account.   [Moderator remov

Public Distribution of Dreamweaver CSS Syntax Validation Definition

This is a property sheet for Dreamweaver's CSS editor to disable warnings related to custom properties and universal selectors.I created this because the warnings are annoying.Note: To enable custom properties, warnings for non-existent (undefined in CSS) properties will also be disabled.For example, the following warnings (like "Expected RBRACE at line xxxxxxx") will be disabled::root { --cfw-body-font-color: #000; // ← Warning here } @keyframes blinking { // ← Warning here 0% { opacity: 0.1; color: var(--cfw-theme-font-color); // ← Warning here } 100% { opacity: 1; color: var(--cfw-color-red); // ← Warning here } } .ql-editor ul[data-checked=true] > li *, // ← Warning here .ql-editor ul[data-checked=false] > li * { // ← Warning here pointer-events: all; }How to Configure (DW21.x)Windows:Go to [Edit] > [Preferences] > [Syntax Checking].Select "CSS" in the "Root Set" and edit.Mac:Go to [Dreamweaver] > [Preferences

Cannot move the cursor outside of the <header> tag in Dreamweaver Design View

I'm encountering an issue in Dreamweaver's Design View. The document structure is very simple: I have a single <header> element with an <h1> tag inside it. When I try to move the cursor outside of the <header> to write additional content, it stays stuck inside the <header> tag!! Clicking or double-clicking below the <header> in Design View does not allow me to move the cursor outside of it.Pressing Enter also adds new paragraphs (<p> tags) inside the <header> instead of moving the focus outside.Normally, in Design View, you should be able to double-click below any element (such as a <header>) to move the focus and start editing outside of that element. However, this does not work in this case.The only way to resolve this is to switch to Code View, place the cursor manually outside the <header> tag, and then switch back to Design View to continue editing. This issue seems to be a limitation or bug in the Design Vi

Adobe Dreamweaver not picking up stylesheet attributes.

Right, is there any valid reason whatsoever as to WHY Dreamweaver is choosing to ignore the stylesheet that is attached to my HTML document? It is completely ignoring any css attribute I place in my stylesheet and quite frankly it;s really starting to piss me off.  Below is the code that is the stylesheet which is  the HTML document, between the <head> tags - which, shockingly, is the way I have always dont this and (also shockingly) is the way it is supposed to be done. <link href="css/master.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">  However, tonight, your product as decied to behave like an "intelligently-challenged"  disobdient child and completely ignore ANY CSS atribute I make: color, positioning, font-size, nothing.  So, tell me, why am I once again having my time wasted by some idioticly-designed software which is still quite happy to charge us?  Anyone else have this issue?
