Hi Adobe Team, könntet ihr bitte einen Dreamweaver 2025, der stabil auf Mac OS Sequoia 15.6.1 (24G90) läuft. 21.6 stürzt bei der geringsten Interaktion ab und zwar bei Quiellcode formatieren, speichern, öffnen, alle speichern und bei einfügen von Quelltext. Sehr unzuverlässig. Ich will Dreamweaver aber weiterverwenden, sonst muss ich wechseln. Bitte, bitte, ein echtes stabiles Update. Danke: Auszüge aus dem Crash Report: Danke für den Crash-Report! Ich sehe, dass Dreamweaver 2021 (Version 21.6.0.15711) auf deinem Mac mit macOS 15.6.1 immer wieder mit einem Segmentation Fault (EXC_BAD_ACCESS) abstürzt. Das liegt meist an Inkompatibilitäten zwischen älteren Adobe-Apps und neuen macOS-Versionen.

DocType Validation Error

HelloHere is my template page:https://meherbabalibrary.org/pages/radiohour-1969.html The pages I plan to create will be with text (word documents), insert of PDF document,Insert of MP4 videos and insert of photographs. Nothing complicated. I do not want to change the appearance, the visual of this template. What I did was run validation. One error was located on this template page. It is Doctype. Do I ignore the error or is it bes to change the text string. I page shows it is HTML 5 Once I fix this error below I will then use a CSS link to begin to develop the pages. Error:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Traditional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-Traditional.dtd"> Thanks

Project Seven extensions installed but not "showing" in Dreamweaver

IntroI'm a long time user of Dreamweaver and Extensions by Project Seven.I maintain 3 websites for my photography businessI'm also really frickin old and not interested in having to learn new software. Problem:With a recent Dreamwear upgrade the Extension disappeared from Dreamweaver.  If I look in Extension Manager the apps as still there and Active, but are not findable in the app.  I reached out to Project Seven in late November and Gerry Jacobsen replied with the following.  Subject: Re: Have you run into this? Hi Marv,Yes, that indicates a corruption in one of the Dreamweaver menu xml files.See this tech note for instructions on how to fix and work around this issue:https://www.projectseven.com/products/ex-man/info.htm#cc-issueBe sure to follow all of the steps.Regards,Gerry Jacobsen, PVII Unfortunately, I was swamped in Nov and Dec and just went to fix the problem, and as many of you know Project Seven is now gone, along with their website.

Lost file on local server

Suddenly yesterday one of my key files disappeared on both my local and remote servers.  It's the file for my index (home) page.  The file is still somewhere, because if you go to the website, you see the home page.  So it's accessing the page from somewhere.  But I can't find it.  I did a search, and I've gone through every file and folder, and I can't find it.  Obviously, I need to find it so I can open it and keep updating it.  Help!!

Dreamweaver 2015 Classic Theme for Dreamweaver 2021

Hello to all members of the community! Heraclitus (Heraclitus of Ephesus, ancient greek philosopher) once said, 'The only constant in life is change.' So, if you can't find a way, create one yourself.. That's what i did because i hated all the code coloring themes of the latest versions of Dreamweaver (2017+). I finally created the *almost* perfect code coloring theme having the same colors as the classic theme of Dreamweaver 2015. I hope you all appreciate my work. I still would like Adobe to address this and create a proper one including it in the next updates in the future. Download this RAR file and follow the instructions: https://www.codelab.gr/dw2015.rar Don't forget to activate the theme after your install it in the DW 2021 settings. I hope everyone likes it!

Using DW on different computers

This may have been answered at some point, but I can't seem to find it after searching the threads. I'm currently taking a beginning DW course.  I've been doing the exercises on my Imac desktop up till this point with no issues.  I also have a laptop with DW that has the same icloud account as the desktop, and all the files seem to stay current on both computers, except for the site definitions (I can't find them on the laptop when opening DW).  I would like to do some work on the laptop when on the go.  My question is: do I have to define the site again on the laptop in order to work on the same materials that I would on the desktop?  Or should I just avoid trying to do work on a specific site on different computers?

Access To Site Stopped?

I was minding my own business, taking care of some minor updates to my 100 DW sites, and all of a sudden, I couldn't see the sites anymore.    In the upper right-hand corner where my sites used to be displayed, I get:     Using file manager, I see the sites under  HomeImac2020 as directory Sites: :   I scrolled it but could not find anything related to the 100 sites I had for years.   That means I cannot access them or update them.   I am using an iMac with the latest OS and version 21.5 of DW..   I am puzzled!   ALSO, the "Manage Site" dialog box comes up empty!  It used to be full of the names of my sites.   I cannot get  DW to see HomeImas2020   Any help would be appreciated   http://lilesnet.com   Paul Liles [email address removed by Moderator - this is to stop spammers from hammering your inbox]

SCSS not creating css file

Enhance your CSS with preprocessors |I've been watching this video and trying following along. The narrator says that a CSS file is automatically created, but I'm not seeing it in my folder. I'm working with Dreamweaver CC 2018. What do I need to do to create a compiler? I just started learning SCSS this morning, however, I've written CSS for quite awhile. Do I need to have a CSS file set up?

Will Adobe fully update Dreamweaver, commit to developing it, sell it, or let it die a slow death?

I've been using Dreamweaver since it was a Macromedia product and, despite Adobe's best efforts, it is still the most fully featured and useable tool ina web designer/developer's toolbox. So why is Adobe behind with updating the software? All we get is minimal updates for security patches only, and no real innovation from Adobe since CS6 around a decade ago!Adobe likes to ignore the web design/developer comunity, a fact that is shown that Adobe Max hasn't mentioned the software at all for five years.Let's face it, you are milking the product whilst trying to kill it. And now your latest update (May 2025) causes so much frustration with sudden crashes for no reason makes me think you are trying even harder to force people away.So time to step up Adobe.  Are you killing it,  saving it, or going to commit to developing the top tool in web design/development (an area that is growing four times more over than Graphic Design according th the BoLS)?Time for answers...

Dreamweaver Drop Down Menu

Hello, This is my first time using Dreamweaver and everything seemed to be going well until I tried to add a drop down menu to my navigation bar. While the list items are being added, they appear beside the button they're supposed to be underneath of- like they're a part of the main navigation bar and not a drop down. I've tried everything I can think of to fix it, but every piece of CSS I try to add distorts the larger navigation bar while still not bringing the two menu options down. I've included a screenshot of my screen and how it appears in the preview, can anyone tell me where I went wrong?

How do I upload an edited page in Dreamweaver without re-uploading all the images? taking too long

How do I upload an edited page in Dreamweaver without re-uploading all the images? It's taking too long to upload a simple text edit. I don't remember it taking so long in older versions of the software. Is there an easy fix or setting? I am using the latest version (Mac).

Dreamweaver does not save files, but only 'save as'

All my files won't save just pressing "ctrl + s" nor physically going to menu FILE -> SAVE.Right now, only way I can save is by overriding with "Save As" on top of the same file.anyway to fix this issue?

Contact Form text area is limiting and the form wont center

Finally trying my hand at a contact form - https://pitchlab.net/contact/  before I dive into server side I need to make sure it works properly and there are two issues- minor but annoying: first issue is the textarea for "Message" is behaving like an input in that it is limiting the width you can type.. a text area should allow you to type all the way across.. and finally- the form div wont center - I used a parent container flexbox for the columns and a div wrapping the  form and it wont center..   my parent:.contact_flex_container {width:100%;height:100%;display: flex;justify-content:center;align-items: center;padding-top: 10vh;} my form div: .form_container{justify-content: center;} any help would be appreciated!

Custom Code Themes Can't be Edited

When I create a custom code theme via Edit->Preferences->Interface it doesn't appear in the box so I can't edit it. It does seem to exist somewhere though, because If I try to make another custom themee with the same name it tells me it already exits. Is there any way to make the theme appear so that I can actually use it?

Preventing the _notes folders from being created

IssueSome users, particularly those that utilize a version control system like Subversion or Git, do not want the _notes folders to be created by Dreamweaver.The _notes folders are created by Dreamweaver to maintain synchronization information and for Design Notes.Design Notes can be used to to keep track of extra information associated with your documents, such as comments on status of the document (e.g. "in draft" or "complete"). Design Notes can be also shared between users of the same site by checking the Enable Upload Design Notes For Sharing setting. Other than for sharing with other users, the _notes folders are only used by Dreamweaver in their local storage locations and do not need to be uploaded to your server.SolutionTo prevent the _notes folder from being created by Dreamweaver, disable the Maintain Synchronization Information and the Maintain Design Notes settings for your site.For more information, see these articles from the Dreamweaver documentation:"Connect to a remot

Code Complete not working after Mac Sequioa update

After installing verion 21.5 on a new Mac running Sequoia, the Code Hints or code completion does not work even with manual control-spacebar.   I  have the box checked to "Enable code hints" in Settings>Code HInts, and also tried linting changes. I read the brackets.json file needs a specific line of code  "codehint.Hints":{"javascript":true}.  which it does not have, but I cannot edit the file as it's read only. Earlier I had a notification appear about extensions available to edit, but I didn't insall any and it says "(no extentions availble)"  so not sure if that's part of it. Not sure what to do or how to recreate the brackets file.

Selecting Multiple Lines of Text in CC Using Shift

Just upgraded from Dw CS6 to CC. I used to select a group of text by clicking a line number, holding shift and then clicking another line number but this doesn't seem to be working in CC. I can't find in the MissingManual that this is a feature in CC either. Is this a feature they have removed? Such shame if so! You'd think it doesn't matte as you can drag the mouse still to select multiple lines of text, however the shift-only method is very handy when highlighting a specific line and the scrolling down over a page (or more) and then accurately selecting the next line. I quite like to set my own shortcuts for Dw. If this is a removed feature, is it available to create a shortcut for it? I've had a look but can't seem to see where this would be possible either. Thanks!

Is Adobe selling a 30 days license?

I found a company here in Italy selling used corporate licenses… is this legal?Also, they have a special low price for a license that expires after 30 days, I didn’t know that you could buy such a license from Adobe, is that true?

Dreamweaver ALWAYS crashes after I open the first file of the day.

Doesn't matter whether I'm at work (DELL) or at home (HP) on a different network. Happens ALL THE TIME.

Left menu not working right

Something has gone haywire with my website's menu. Compare:https://bassett.net with https://arleneeakle.com.Other than colors they used to work the same. On mine,... look at Replacement "Left Menu" until fixed... at the top. The resulting menu is what I used to have in the left sidebar, like the white/green menu in Arlene's sidebar. But now, I only see a tiny bit of it and most is "off screen". One day it was working fine, and the next it was broken. I noticed it about the same time my husband died and I'm just now having a bit of time to figure out what's wrong. I don't recall making any changes to the website around the time it broke but couldn't swear to it. Two other things about the same time. Like Arlene's right sidebar, I have an image that is at the top of the right menu that is missing. The other is that there is something making the top of the center panel indented. It's much more noticeable on https://www.bassett.net/pages/pets.shtml. Anybody see anything obvious?
