    This was quickly solved in a support chat with Priyanka, who saw that my computer was named Greg's iMac. By taking out the apostrophe from the main directory name, both the font preview issue AND the missing pop-down menu issue were fixed. NO SPECIAL CHARACTERS IN FILE OR FOLDER NAMES.


    I never would have thought of that.  Glad support got you sorted.

     

    UPDATE 2/26/2022:

    Effective July 2022, Adobe Edge Fonts will be discontinued.

    Please switch over to Adobe Fonts or other suitable font replacement.

    1. Close DW.
    2. Open Creative Cloud desktop app.
    3. Click the 3 dots icon by your avatar and log-out. 
    4. Wait 30 seconds and log-in again with your paid CC plan ID and password.
    5. On Windows, go to your DW desktop icon, right-click and select Run as Administrator.

    When editing in Live view, use double-click.


    I signed out of my account, waited for a bit, signed back in, launched Dreamweaver and reset the preferences, went into the Manage Fonts window and selected handmade fonts and the checkmark, and pressed done. I went back into the manage fonts window and it looks like this:
