• local root folder selection problem in Vista

  A friend has faced a problem of Dreamweaver, I can't find any info on that. When you define a site, when he tries to define the local root folder in navigation by selecting, the local root folder is set a directory higher than he is chosen.

  I searched for info on the issue and cannot get what it is however when asking around, I had a few more people report the same problem.
  
  I'm not much of a Windows Guy so no matter which another considering issue elsewhere / have any suggestions for fixing it?

• selecting problem local root folder

  Hello world! I have DW CS4 on Vista and recently installed SP2. But I don't know where this problem started.

  I created a new site yesterday and then today had to transfer the folder to another site, because he won. And both times, I was unable to select the folder. It was not isolated to these two sites, however. It seems to happen with all sites, regardless of where the folder is located on my machine.

  Here's what happens: in the definition of local site, I click on folder icon to access my folder, find the folder I want, and then click the select"" button. But the file I selected does not appear in the path of the local root folder. It shows the previous folder. In other words, if the folder is at D:/websitefolder /, it will select only D: /. If the folder is, D:/folder1/websitefolder, it will select only D:/Folder1. I have to manually type in the name of the folder.

  What gives?

  It's a recent thing, probably related to the update of Vista SP2.  The solution?  Choose a folder below level where you want it to be! 8)

• Move a folder to one local root folder to another

  I used Dreamweaver CS4 to build my site, and I became basically familiar with how it works. Now I'm just starting to build a second site - and I met a disconcerting problem.

  I've defined the new site in the usual way and created the local root folder.

  I have a folder full of image files which is currently placed in the local root folder of my old site - I would put this in the local root folder of my new site.

  This may seem silly, but I can't find a way to move this one to the other local root folder Pictures folder. I thought it would be a simple drag & drop move, but it doesn't seem to be a way to do this. I moved the images folder on the desktop, from where it should be easy to drag the icon of the new local root folder in Dreamweaver and drop it in - but it does not work.

  Am I missing something obvious here...?

  You should be able to access your computer directory structure through the files Panel in Dreamweaver.

  Click on the drop down arrow next to the named site (open) in the top of the files Panel and navigate upwards in the rest of your computer. You can then Ctrl + C (copy) the file, again select the name of your site (the Green folders at the bottom of the directory, not in the structure of the computer) and Ctrl + V (paste) the folder where you want to. Content will come naturally with her.

  You could (alternating) copy and paste working within the structure of directories of the computer. Paste it in the new root folder and in Dreamweaver, refresh the view in the files Panel. The folder should appear fine.

  Note that I was not slipping and falling, even though it should work with the latest technique.

• change the local root folder

  Totally newbie here - Sorry for the question of dim-bulb.
  
  I have my current local root folder on my drive C. I bought a new external hard drive and transfer my local root folder to the new external hard drive. Easy peasy, right?
  
  I've copied the existing on my new external hard drive - local root folder then went to 'Set the Sites' and update this section that relates to my site. However, when I try to update, I get a window with the following message "warning: the selected folder does not the current site home page contain.» The site map can be built.
  
  I can't understand what I'm doing wrong. Someone out there who might be able to help? Thank you 1 million.

• How to remove unwanted files from the local root folder of the site?

  Hello

  I work with Dreamweaver CS4 on a Windows PC. I have finished my site but I have a lot of files in my local root folder that I don't want to upload to the server. These unwanted files are for most of the photos that I should not be used in my site. I do not understand how to download the site on the server using ftp and remote folder in Dreamweaver. I suppose that if I move the page html files to the remote folder that my photos will not be associated with these html files automatically. I used a Dreamweaver template during the construction of the site. I wish I had a folder with only the necessary files for the site (all html pages and a folder of images) to upload to the server. Is there an easy way to move all my pages and images associated with a folder or remove all unwanted files in the local root folder? As I see it now, I'll have to go through all my pages and write down each title of the photo and then go back and delete each unwanted file. This seems a lot of your time, so I thought that there must be an easier way, I hope.

  Any help or ideas will be of course very appreciated, thanks, dluthier

  I guess you mean 'work' files, not the images that you use in your Web site.

  If they are not related to all pages of your site, you are free to move by using your computer's file management tools. I can give you specific instructions, if you wish, but the short of it is that you do not keep them in the folder root of your site at all.

  In my way of working, I have a folder for each client that includes:

  • The correspondence of this client folder
  • Folder to 'Work'... the PNG images, etc., or of the images from the client
  • Record the site root

  When I get e-mail, I save the message in the appropriate folder of correspondence, I save the images etc in the folder of 'Work' to the customer and I only save images and other who have already been optimized in the Site folder, keep it as intact as possible.

  Even if the general warning must always use the files Panel to move files around, that applies to files which are linked and form part of the structure of your Site. Moving your files 'work' outside of the structure can be carried out safely in windows explore your PC.

  That said, if you need to download and there are files you want to download, or to move, you can 'hide' the in the files Panel by right-clicking on the file name and choosing 'Cloaking '.... "in the context menu that appears.

  To the point that the image files that are downloaded to the remote site will not 'automatically' be associated with your html files. That is right. Unless you have configured explicitly links or associations between files, images will not associate themselves!

  On the subject of 'automatic' way to do this, you can make a link to check on all of your local site. Window > results > Link Checker will bring up the appropriate window, which will give you the choice: broken links, external links and orphan files (this is the one you want). Use the green triangle tower at the left end of the Link Checker to set your auditor... Current Local Document or a set current site.

  If you want to make a checklist to ensure that you move them all, you can save the report by clicking on the small icon "Floppy" under the Green turn the triangle. Who will be on a file text and make up a dialog that you save the report, which will show the broken links, external links and orphaned files. After you move the files to your heart's content, rerun the link check and confirm that you moved the files you want to move. Make sure that you DON'T move files consciously... do not move the .htaccess files or .cgi files, etc.

  Who will save you from actually having to 'write' file names!

  You use Windows 7, right?

  There was a change in the Vista SP2 (which carried over to Win7) to the API that Dreamweaver uses to open this dialog box. Parent this translates to select the folder that you want to select.

  To work around this problem, type the full path to the correct folder, or select a folder in the folder 'project' on your desktop.

• Problem downloading file site and root of evil

  I have 2 domains.  One of them is running.  When I try to set up a 2nd, 2 hostile things happen.

  Preface: I have 2 areas listed, call them #1 and #2 domain.

  Field #1 works as it is supposed to.

  I'm trying to get the #2 domain up and running.  After the filing in site information of site management area #2, following the instructions of my host (which will not specifically help with DW), the site test successfully, but when I try to download index.html, I get a message that says... activity incomplete files, it says: "1 file (s) have not completed."  I have put something in place in a file I named sitesfolder.  The local site folder is achieved.  I created 2 pages on the site that link back to each other.  When I check using Preview in browser pages times discovers very well... and live view that they look right.   And, once again, to manage sites > successfully tests the domain server.

  : When I look at the record of local files, I can see the 2 pages showing that I built and connected to each other... but the server column root then it also shows files and property of the #1 field.  Certainly, the top bar shows that it is the #2 field.  I certainly don't understand it... or of course all of this.

  I would really appreciate the help.

  Thank you

  You use two definitions of separate sites with the same local root folder, or are these two completely separate sites?

  GS-01: defining a new site | Adobe TV

  Normally, this message appears after a successful server connectivity, test when you have a root folder missing or incorrect, defined for the remote server. It happens a lot with GoDaddy, they seem to be bad enough to lose your permissions.

  If you could post a screenshot of your remote server settings and your files window suddenly expanded, showing the two files the remote when you are connected to the server, it could help to avoid any error of site definition that is perhaps not obvious to you.

• DW can download the files from the root folder defined bad?

  Can download Dreamweaver inadvertently a file from a local root folder set to the wrong URL?

  I created and uploaded a website ( has) last Monday. This afternoon, I googled a second site, I set up a few months ago (site B). I found it ranked at the top of the page of Google, but Google fourth or fifth entry included the URL of the page 'Contact' of A site.

  I clicked the link and found the 'Contact' of site A page as it should. But when I clicked on the Google cache, I discovered that at one point the site and the Web site B 'Contact' pages (seem to) briefly occupied the same Web page Monday afternoon.

  I don't understand how this could have happened. I did not file for site B last week. I am certain that I didn't wrong download its files to the wrong site. And even if I had, not would be not the whole site - not just a page - have downloaded?

  I hope this question makes sense to someone. I of course do understand.

  Thank you.

  PS I'm using CS4 on a Mac...

  First off I want to ask have you actually checked on the host site to check the structure of the folders in each site? Are the two sites on the same host? Look and see if all of the pages where they are supposed to be.

• How to access the "Local Settings" folder in Vista.

In XP, you could access the local settings folder to manually delete the Temp and Temporary Internet files. I liked to do this because you have been assured that all deleted. But in Vista, all I get is access denied! And this applies to other as well protected system files. Is there a way to change the security settings for this folder?

  References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

  You have this problem on more than one machine is very telling. Update all the major
  drivers and BIOS. Also consider the antivirus/antispyware/security programs on the machine and
  those who have ALREADY been on because they can let problems causing remains. Especially check everything

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device

  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the

• Y at - it a fix for leak of VRAM in Windows Desktop? (Windows media Encoder and photo IE10 Viewer are the root of the problem)

  It seems that Windows media Encoder and photo IE10 Viewer are the root of the problem, and it is about the whole MS Platform in desktop for what anyone associated media.  As easy as it is to use another browser or image viewer I find I like the windows photo viewer ability to preview multiple images and IE10 and 11 are more now then fix everything that exists.

  The issue is having to restart or log out and back in just pass leak VRAM that can go up to 1400 MB and count. What said GPU - Z and ESTR.  The memory of the system seems to be in check most of the time.  Get off my GPU memory Windows.

  I mean leak even with the left running only windows desktop and essential tasks to keep it that way.  I have games that will never saturate 1.5 GB of video memory on my setup. Darn Far Cry 3 does not work.   I'm ranting, namely. At the same time being a little in-depth play play of this recurring problem.

  In case the VP and general manager or anyone else to Microsoft is approaching through it all here is the short version:
