Hi all Techy folks...


I have an old installation of Dreamweaver 4 resides @ C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 4\Dreamweaver.exe


I have now downloaded Dreamweaver CS6 Trial Version. resides C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\Dreamweaver.exe

Which seems to be working fine.


However in I highlight any .HTML file and use 'open with' Dramweaver it is opening in Dreamweaver 4.


If I use select program and navigate to the CS6 address.. I get an extra DW 4 icon and it opens with Dreamweaver 4


If I rename the Dreamweaver.exe from C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 4\

and then use select program and navigate to the CS6 address. no icon is created so cannot open the file.


CSS files 'open with' option opens fine with CS6. That is because .CSS file association is set to CS6.


I cannot set HTM & HLML associations to CS6 as they need to open in a Browser when clicked.


I do not want to uninstal DW4 just yet and not sure if that would solve the problem..


Any ideas Please..

I'm stuck with Dreamweaver but I have a different question:


When I upload a page, it asks if I want to upload dependent files i.e. pictures.


These go up reasonably swiftly and then invariably the upload jams on the last graphic and the connection is lost


Is it just shitty Dreamweaver or the ordure that is Virgin causing the phenomenon?

Ditch Dreamweaver and code in a text editor like Notepad++. It's easier to get into than you think, and you'd make far more efficient pages...


Failing that at a pinch I'd try uninstalling DW4, or perhaps both then reinstalling only DW6. That might hopefully clean out any file assocations.

Just spent 10 mins typing that I do use notepad++ for PHP @ C++

and the reason I need Dreamweaver as apposed to Frontpage..


Then EDF crashed. I need to type in notepad and cut and paste if typing long posts.

EDF always times out at about 8-10 mins. if I do not post message.


Really Annoying.

Hello Mr Fox, I think you'll need to enter the registry and adjust the file associations.



HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and change the (Default) from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1"


Not for the faint hearted! R/C

Thanks R/C


Yes I'm Ok around the Registry...


It was Dreamweaver and not Photoshop that was screwed but same basic path.

Not (64Bit) in my case..


All sorted out now..


Cheers again.

I know I'm repeating myself but...


Dreamweaver: When I upload a page, it asks if I want to upload dependent files i.e. pictures.


These go up reasonably swiftly and then invariably the upload jams on the last graphic and the connection is lost

Hi stevo..


Not too sure what you are actually doing.


Are you talking about FTP to web hosting when you say upload.

It could be anti-virus preventing completion of upload.


Possible a Buffer problem. Time-out ??

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
