Opening Help file blocks Dreamweaver 8.0.1

Whenever I try to open the files using Dreamweaver, it stops the program. I get the box error "Dreamweaver 8 has encountered a problem and needs to close." I uninstalled DW8 and reinstalled from the disk, and still, it crashes when I try to open the help file.

I know that the help file is there, because I can navigate to the help folder and open the file to help in this way, but I can't just open the help file in Dreamweaver using the drop down menus.

Sincerely,
GreenMartian

Windows Professional x 64 bit SP2

  • Impossible (to open HTML files in Dreamweaver re)

    Hello

    I am running CS5 on a Macintosh computer. Recently, I created a HTML file and when I went to reopen, Dreamweaver told me that the file is not found.

    I tried to open the file in Dreamweaver, I tried to open it the icon of the file and I tried to move the file and open a new location and nothing has worked.

    Any ideas/help would be very appreciated. I'm also fairly new to dreamweaver, if I miss something quite simple.

  • Toolbar in Dreamweaver suddenly disappeared and I can't open the files with Dreamweaver

    I use Dreamweaver CS5. I use it almost everyday and have for several years.

    Suddenly, when I opened Dreamweaver, the elements of the toolbar (file, Windows tools) are not displayed, and when I try to open a file using Dreamweaver from the Finder, nothing past is. The application seems to open but nothing does not appear or work.

    A few days ago I had to restore everything from Time Machine after a hardware solution from Apple. Dreamweaver has worked well for a few hours, and then it happened...

    I just uninstalled and reinstalled Dreamweaver - no difference.

    Does someone understand what could be the problem? Maybe a few small adjustments, extension or file?

  • How to stop opening php file in Dreamweaver

    Hello

    I've never used Dreamweaver and I don't use it at the moment, but after installing Xampp on my PC, the php files will open in Dreamweaver. The pages are empty then even can not be changed.  Is there a way I can stop these files open in Dreamweaver?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Dreamweaver cannot open files if it is not installed.  Be sure to check the Applications folder on a Mac or Windows programs.  You can also run the Adobe Clean Script to remove all the remains of Adobe programs on your computer.

    http://www.Adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

    You can also right-click on a file in Windows or on Mac and choose the associated program and change all the files.  By default, these files will be opened in a text editor, unless an HTML editor is around.

  • How can I prevent running a php script Dreamweaver when I open the file?

    I have a .php script that writes to a file. Example:

    $fileout = "schedule.txt;

    $fname = fopen ($fileout, 'w');

    ... and later he writes the data in $fileout.

    When I open the file in Dreamweaver, php code is executed. This means, the $fileout is created, written to, etc. This also occurs when the file is saved.

    I want only that to run when I said to (for example, an excerpt in Chrome).

    CS5. PHP MySQL server model. Windows 7. WAMP.

    You will need to wrap the script in a conditional statement and create a trigger that will set the condition on the move.

  • PCOC File: Open trying to use ANY OTHER APPLICATION to open the file

    Hello

    I'm on Dreamweaver CC and when I go to open a file it tried to use my CS5, CS5.5 CS6 and finally the versions of Dreamweaver CS4 to open the file (.cfm). I uninstalled ALL the files and now, when in Dreamweaver CC I go to file: it opens automatically open Apple numbers, tries to open the file.

    Anyone know how to open a file with Dreamweaver and get Dreamweaver to open it actually?

    Thanks in advance,

    I have 3 files in my directory... When I run the code I can open a file and read it... but the while loop get blocked after the first iteration... can someone me help or give some indications

    try {}

    fconnRead.close ();
    } catch (Exception e) {}
    System.out.println (try ());
    }

    }

    }

    You can recode this treatment so that it uses only:

    e.nextElement ())

    Once a loop iteration.

    Directly at the start saying something like:

    String fileName = e.nextElement ());

    and use fileName everywhere in your loop.

    Also be aware that printStackTrace() will do nothing in your situation, it only works if you catch Throwable.  So make sure you something output all your catches exception and also have a catch (Throwable t) to catch the things you miss, as follows:

    {} catch (Throwable t)

    t.printStackTrace ();

    System.out.println ("Eception exception:" + t.toString ());

    }

    I think your code is thrown an exception and you don't see it.

  • my laptop does not open any file I download from the hyperlink! Help, please!?

    Please help me? !!!  I think I accidentally deleted a driver needed to open downloaded files.  My laptop HP Pavilion 7000 has will not open any file that download.  I click on the hyperlink on the Web page that I want to download and the item is displayed to download and appears ("download completed").  It appears at the top of the download list.  When I click with the left button on the point and click Open or save the file, the mouse animated backgr appears momentarily and then nothing.  Nothing happens.  It won't show me page I want to see!  I tried all possible combinations.  Open the file with the software choice.  Sometimes it will open if I click Open with msworks but in gibberish.  Augh!  I've tried everything.  I closed my firewall thought that might block downloads. I deleted openoffice.org and re-installed.  I ran spysweeper, anti-virus, anti-malware...  I did a system restore... I'm at my wits end!

  • I uninstalled Dreamweaver CS5.5 and reinstalled and now I can not find or open my files websoite.

    When I installed first my Dreamweaver CS5.5, I took a class and using my instructor (4 years ago). When I tried to open and update my site yesterday (as I do every year for my small business) I got a message from Java Update I did.  Then, I got a message to uninstall and reinstall Dreamweaver I've done.  Now I can open the app, but I can not open my Web site files.  I see them on the menu, but they do not open.  I am on a Mac with os x Yosemite.  I think it has something to do with the managed sites, but after trying several things, I did more than a mess of things and I can not always open my files.  My site is still running on the remote server, but I can't do the updates that I need for my Web site for 2016. I wish there was someone in the Milwaukee area, that I could go to help me with this or someone who can guide me through it over the phone.

    Go to Site > new Site or manage Sites.

    Click your site definition.

    Click on the pencil icon to edit it.

    Click the servers tab.  See screenshot.

    You can apply the default file association in windows. Follow http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-vista/change-which-programs-windows-uses-by-def ault

    Also, you can try adding in DW preferences.

    1) go to preferences< file="">

    2) click the icon "+" on the left column and add the extension you need.

    3) click on the icon "+" in the right column and add the editor like Dreamweaver. Find the Dreamweaver.exe file installed in "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC.

    4) click the main brand and click OK.

    (5) close DW and relaunch.

    I hope this helps
