What happened to the FTP To remote server in Dreamweaver 2121?

My Dreamweaver has lost the arrows on the top of hte file list  (in Developer work space) that triggers uploading the selected files to the remote server.       I dont remember doing anything to hide them.      How do I re-enable the FTP function?   

When I  look at the site definitions,   the Remote server is still defined and Dreamweaver can still connect ok,  but I am unable to find how to send my files to the remote server.  

 

Any ideas what I've done? 

 

Cheers

    Is the Defined Site Name selected from the dropdown menu in the Files window, or is it showing "Desktop" and a list of directories (that you may have opened to your site folder) under it?

     

    For comparison, I have selected "Test Site of Justice" in the first screen shot, and left the second on "Desktop". Without a site name selected in the Files window, you won't have the ability to upload/download...

    Keyboard shortcut Ctr + Shift + U uploads open file to server.

    Failing that, try Restore Preferences.
