emmet.zxp will not install using Extn Mgr CS6 on Mac OS 10.7.5

When I try to install emmet.zxp on my old Mac running CS6, using Extension Manager CS6 version 6.0.8.28, I get the following error message: The extension "Emmet" does not contain valid signature. The extension will not be installed.

I have tried installing from Ext. Mgr directly and from within Dreamweaver. No luck. Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Thanks, Nancy

    Both links end up at GitHub, where I originally downloaded Emmet.zxp. Left a request for help with the author, but haven't heard back.

    I also tried the DMX Zone extension manager, but it doesn't work with OS lower than 10.9.

    So I guess no Emmet :-(


    You could use Brackets (with Emmet extension) or Wappler (which has Emmet built in) alongside Dreamweaver.

    Where did you find that extension? If it's not signed, you cannot install it.

    DW CC has Emmet alreacdy included.   No extension needed.

    Hi Nancy

    I downloaded it from GitHub.

    I am not using CC. I want to stick with CS6.

    Apparently some people have gotten it to install as of 2015.

    Thanks

    I found these:

    Maybe if you try a 3rd party Extension Manager.   As I recall CS6's EM was very flakey.  When CC came out, I got rid of it and switched to this one from DMX Zone.  It's free.
