I just 'upgraded' (if you consider DW CC an upgrade) from CS6 to CC, and am having problems with .cfm files.
I have followed all the instructions to get DW CC to open and edit .cfm files..... and it does this just fine. I have also installed the server behaviours and databases panel extension.
However heres the BIG problem: when I want to upload a .cfm file to a server, I am no longer getting a prompt to upload dependent files! It prompts me fine if I upload a .html file, but not .cfm.
I mostly work with .cfm files and make changes to CSS files regularly. Whenever I upload a .cfm it is essential that DW also uploads the dependent files associated with it.
Please how can I fix this issues? I have gone into preferences and all the boxes are checked correctly to prompt for dependent files when putting/getting. I'm so stuck I'm thinking about cancelling my CC products and going back to CS6.

Same problem with ASP and ASPX files. I suspect it's because these features are deprecated.
There are also issues with updating library items and templates to ASP and APSX files. I've wasted an entire morning trying to get templates to update and in the end just had to update each page manually by opening each file and reapplying the templates.
For our studio, Dreamweaver is rapidly going from being a useful, time-saving part of our worklfow to being a complete waste of time if the client site is ASP or ASPX.
I think Adobe have severely underestimated how many CFM, ASP and ASPX website front ends are maintained with Dreamweaver.

I am also having this problem. Such a shame, I have been using Dreamweaver since MX. Is there no fix to this? Our non-profit site is running both Coldfusion *and* classic ASP pages so this is a double whammy.

Switch to a decent IDE like Sublime Text (which has good CF and I am sure ASP support) and is a million times faster than CFBuilder or DW. Just my opinion though.
