CS3 Activation - No Connection [CS3 is dead]

I have a valid license for CS3 which I purchased years ago.  I have received a new activation code and uninstalled CS3 components.  Every time I attempt to reactivate the software I get the following error: Regardless of what I do, I get the same error. I only have three days left to reactivate the software and I'm getting desperate.  I'm retired and only use the software to maintain a personal web site.  I can't afford to purchase a new Adobe suite to do what little web work I do.   I have followed the direction provided on the Adobe site to the letter.  Any help is certainly appreciated. Thank you.

Can you still administer Contribute sites?

Hi all. I have a old school request for old old software, but it's for a hobby project of my Grandad and his friend. They still use Contribute to maintain a website and are quite happy with it, but I've just moved hosting and now can't connect to SFTP nor administer the site from Dreamweaver. I can connect to the server in Dreamweaver without issue, but Contribute gives me problems with the wizard. Could anyone tell me what settings I might have to change in Contribute to make it work, or how to create a contribute key (or edit the old one?!) so that I can update the details. I noticed in Contribute it doesn't have the option to specify port (I need it to be 22) so not sure if this is the issue. But it just says cannot connect instantly, so it doesn't really try for long (this is in Contribute when manually inputting the server details through the connection wizard). I tried the 'administer site in Contribute' button but it doesn't do anything, even with Contribute insta

Vorlage - CSS Datei - template

Hallo Zusammen, ich habe in Dreamweaver für meine Webseite eine Vorlage erstellt.Mit dieser Vorlage will ich meine Seiten erstellen.Der editierbare Teil der Vorlage soll der Inhaltsbereich meiner Seite sein.Soweit hat alles funktioniert. Das Problem ist, dass der Eintrag im HTLM Kopf für die verlinkte CSS Datei nicht editierbar ist, wenn ich mit der Vorlage eine neue Seite anlege. Ich habe also immer die gleiche CSS Datei. Was kann ich tun um für jede Seite eine eigene CSS Datei zu bekommen z.B. Kontakt.html und kontakt.css?GrußMarkus

other ways to preview SSI?

I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver 19.2.1 I'm working on a website that that uses SSIs to call on headers and footers. Everything displays fine on the test server, but they don't appear in Split view or Live View. Is there a way for me to preview it as it would look on the test server? The site was designed this way (not by me) so I cannot get rid of the SSI. They are

Dreamweaver cannot find GIT

Hello! I am familiar with Dreamweaver, so I rely on these youtube videos and forums for aid. However, there is one issue I cannot seem to find a solution to. Adobe Dreamweaver promotes an automatic connection to GIT if installed with the default configurations. This, however, was not the case. I tried with GitHub and the actual GIT Client, but Dreamweaver cannot seem to find it. Yes, I relaunch the program every time. I would preferably like to connect GitHub as I am more familiar with its GUI, but if need be I can adapt to GIT. Please help!

Dreamweaver fails to upload on save about 50% of the time.

I believe it has something to do with the speed it saves it. It seems to be still saving it while the upload starts, thereby getting a failed message.  Then I have to make another change to the file and try it again, and it normally goes up the 2nd time. As I make a lot of changes and want to see the results having it fail 50% of the time is very annoying. Any suggestions? I have tested other options and they do not fail, but I prefer to use Dreamweaver.

Coding in Markdown

I have a project where I need to convert an 18 page word doc (docx) to Markdown (md) for a CMS site. I was hoping I could just copy the word doc and paste into dreamweaver and have it convert to md like it does for HTML. Alas it does not. Was then hoping that after DW converted it to HTML, I could then convert the HTML to md....that didn't work either or at least I couldn't figure it out. Anyone have any ideas of how to get a large docx file converted to md?? If it wasnt 18 pages of content, I could just hand code it. Its also some private info, so I cant use an online converter for privacy issues. Any thoughts would be helpful.

Sites - Window Size

Hi!How can I change the size of the Site-Chooser - it used to be a long list - no it's only short list with about 8 entries - I have about 50 projects - so it makes no sense to scroll through such a short list - thanks for your help!

New Dreamweaver site for Yahoo Small Business

I've built a site in Dreamweaver CS6/2020 to replace an existing site. It was working (in a test environment, so to speak) a month ago. I've since uploaded the files to Yahoo's Staging Environment and it's not working there. I get the dreaded 404 error message when trying to access the index.html.I would love some help, assistance, getting this site live. Any takers out there?Thank you,Elaine

DW CC 2019 doesn't execute includes

In the attached images there are two instances of the same page in design view, in DW CS6 and DW CC2019.The difference is because CC2019 doesn't read three of the "virtual includes" in the code:<head>  <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Αν ερχόσουν</title>  </head> <body> <div id="shell">  <h3>Αν ερχόσουν</h3> <table id="elems">Am I missing a setting or what?Thanks

DreamWeaver Unaware of Previously Declared Global Variables in JS

Hello,I have a website we're building that has to use one PHP file to declare and set the values of some global JS variables.  Then in anotehr JS file we have to take actions based on the values in those global variables. However, in DreamWeaver the JS file is full of false-positive error messages for "undeclared variable" with regard to all those global JS variables ( that were declared and given values in the previous PHP file ). Of course, everything works properly when we test our logic in a web browser.  But it's now hard to debug this long JS file, because we have to constantly hover over, see and then disregard 90% of the error lines - as they are false positive - in order to finally arrive at and fix any REAL errors when we add or update the logic. Does anybody know a way around this?  Making DreamWeaver properly aware of previously declared global variables between multiple files? Thank You

Having issue downloading rdp config file from our site

All file types that I've put to the site have worked so far, however after putting an rdp config file to the site, for users to download, I am having issues. I am going through the same steps I do to put pdf's and such to the site. When I right click the image that is linked to the rdp file on the live site, and try to save the link from chrome (windows 10), in the chrome downloads it is stating "Failed - No file". It is pulling down the correct file name, and when I open that file in the Dreamweaver file browser, it opens up the rdp session correctly. I have also tried this on Edge and got the same result. I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver 11.5 5315 and was wondering if anyone here had ever experienced issues with putting/downloading rdp config files on the site. Thank you!

Mildly frustrating

Hello, all, There is one thing that has been mildly frustrating and I've put it off long enough. I have Dw set so that it will automatically open the files that were left open when Dw closed. Every time I start Dw, the file tab that had the focus when I closed Dw (assuming more than one file opened) gets moved to the far right (still has focus). Why?  What is the point?  I don't care if the last focus gets focus back when Dw opens, but moving it to the far right (esp if I have 20+ documents open) is annoying.  Is there a fix, for this? V/r, ^ _ ^
