Dreamweaver Question

    Howdo I make dreamweaver stop downloading all my files from my server when I connect?

    Basically, it's downloading everything from my sever to my c: drive on my computer. I do not want this, I just want to be able to upload things and open things that I need, rather then downloading all the files...


    Thanks

    Hi,

    Maybe you would like to try to remove all the login information to your ftp account access so it cannot connect to your server and eventually it will solve the problem you're facing right now.

    You could try removing the sites from Dreamweaver and using an FTP program to upload when you need?

    This will stop the problem you are having anyway. It's what I do!

    Open dreamweaver and click on "Site" then click on "Manage Sites". Choose the site it keep on uploading & downloading files from and click edit. Click the next button until you get to where it asks you for sharing site files. Click teh drop down adn choose "none". Save & close.

    Note: this will only work if you have made sites in your dreamweaver program.

    yeah it is an option in the profile you can shut off. sometimes it does annoying things, like creating large site caches. just uncheck the box for this option.
