I am having the same issues concerning speed. Large take a long time to open or switching between sites. Also when I drag files to the remote server, it sometimes will delete the file or tell me I have a permissons issue. No issues in CS5. This has been a very diappointing upgrade.

Processor  2 x 2.4 Intel Core I7

Memory  16GB 1333 MHz DDR3

Graphics  AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB

Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)

I am having the same problem. The file seems to start to open and the file tab starts to form but then hangs for up to 10minutes. For the first 20 times this happened I would open the file in another program and copy and paste the code in to a new document but this was a little tedious. Now I have learnt you just have to wait and so I go away and make a coffee (or write this comment on the forum) and by the time I get back it is done.

The only pattern I can see is that they were files that predate CS6 and are .asp.

Is there going to be an update that fixes this?

Best wishes,

Oliver

The speed is still a big issue. I installed the updater for 12.01 and all my issues except speed went away. Today I am having the same put issues as before. It says that it put the files. yet it actually deleted the file on the remote server. Very frustrating

I'm running the 5842 build (ostensibly 12.01), and the first HTML file to open after launch is still ridiculously slow, around 2 minutes. That is just for HTML files, with no associated website. Subsequent HTML files open as quickly as expected.

Does it really take months to fix this stuff?

Did anyone ever resolve this issue?  I am having the same problem.  Switching between sites and opening files in CS6 takes forever!

I usually go on breaks too when I open Dreamweaver C6.... another annoying feature is no html tool bars and all the deprecated tags are removed intentionally.... it just so happens there are some sites we manage that do not want us to charge them to change the format of their sites.... almost all the html is missing. there are not even <h1> tags, or <p> tags...didnt know those were deprecated... if you plan on buying this version....keep your CS4 so you can edit older sites....very disappointed in Adobe. They rushed this to market to suck more cash out of your pocket.... incomplete program ...worst one they put out in years.

The tags are not missing from the page they are missing from the Dreamweaver tool bars... and they are not available to select or add in the favorite/custom toolbar either.
It is like a scaled down version of CS4 but with some new features...in CS4 there was a text tab that had html tags... the text tab is missing... no html tags... I am using a PC for this application. Maybe Mac works different????

Ok, Good spot for them but when you have the editor in full screen it is nice to use the toolbars on top... the text too bar is gone and you cant add the tags to the favorites tool bar either.see this video to see what I am talking about...

I've been strugling with this issue for  a long time.

I've found that Dreamweaver takes  about 2 minutes to open  CSS files with @import url for  font face.

for example:

@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oswald:400,300);

i've never had problem with  big files but if i place this line into my 20k css file,  it takes for ever to load.

if i  remove it, it opens  fast  as usual.

Please don't tell me  that it could be a  Google problem  thatis loading slow  because it's not.

the font file isnt  big enough either.

Of course i have deativated the "load things from external urls" setting.

any ideas on how could this be  fixed withoput changing my work style ?

Thank you very much  for your time and thoughts Nancy!

i would like you to help me  finding the option  you mention here:

i could not find it in my spanish  dreamweaver (i never meant to have a spanish  dreamweaver  but it happened), tried to  find an option  similar to "display Styles"

in my particular case i always work in code view, i always code CSS in code view. Never use / nevwe will use design view. I wish a  way to  get DW  to NEVER try to connect to the external source because i  will never want to  see the work on DW itself.

btw... The options  1 and 3  semms to me pretty uncoonfortable because they mean a lot of extra work.

Thank you very much for your time! Very  apreciated.

For the record,  option 2 does not work. Since the problem happens  when opening the  css file directly.

I work  with  hundreds of sites and i have to be  constantly and wildly opening and modifying many of them , many times a day.  so option  1 is completely out of the  posibilities  for me .

Perhaps these  solutions  could  help other  people that works with less sites and don't mind adding extra steps to their workflow.

i think  there must be a 4th option  to add:

4.- go and make a cofee while DW opens the file.
