Design View Disappeared in CC 2014.1

When editing a site in "Managed Site" mode... ONLY the "LIVE" view button is available. When I edit a page that is not part of a "Managed Site", then the Design & Live view dropdown has both options. I still want "Design View" when editing a "Managed Site"

Thanks

    By "managed site" are you referring to a content management site like Wordpress or Joomla? And can I assume that you are editing local files only?

    No... In Dreamweaver you can setup "Managed Sites" that allows you to edit templates and assets. You have to do Managed Sites when you create a Responsive site if you are using Design or Live View.

    I am just working with html files

    Also.... Live View doesn't update automatically.... WHAT A PAIN... I have to update each html file one at a time!

    Come on Adobe. Why is every new version a mess?

    Oh... it gets WORSE....

    Trying to edit LIVE View is a pain. It doesn't handle editing multiple text styles when you try to double-click in the DIV or STYLE edit box. I am forced to go into code view.

    THANKS ADOBE... YOU HAVE MADE EDITING A SITE MORE DIFFICULT!

    We have the same problem at my workplace on our PCs. Everything works fine on a Mac though.
