Live Preview is not working for me

webineer Apr 11, 2014 2:27 PM

Live Preview is not working for me. I've read many other forums and tried everything and I still get the same issue that everyone else has mentioned. I'm on Chrome Version 34.0.1847.116 m . I have multiple user profiles with Chrome so not sure if that makes a difference.

Adobe Edge team, for a lightweight browser that should be easy to use, this does not make it easy. Hopefully you can implement a fix soon that works for all cases as I was really looking forward to trying this out and I'm unable to.

The next release of Edge Code will have significant improvements to the reliability of launching Live Preview. We're hoping it will be available soon.

Btw, what OS are you on? If you're on Windows, is Chrome installed for a single user or for all users?

I am having issues as well.

Running through the intro tutorials - Just the basic HTML tutorial files. When initiating live preview, I restarted Chrome as prompted for debugging, After restart the preview page loads fine a single time, works for about 10 seconds or so and then disconnects. I cannot get it to reconnect without restarting the program, but the same thing happens.

Live Preview Error: Unable to Load Development Page

The live preview icon remains orange - as if connected, but no changes write to the preview window in HTML or CSS.
Ive seen the other threads, but none of those items seem to fix my issue.

Anything I can do here besides wait for update? Love the basic product - the editing features are awesome, but until live preview + reliable FTP is set, I'll probably stick with current coding solutions.

Running an Imac OSX 10.9.2
Chrome 34.0.1847.116

Hi,

Unfortunately, there was a breaking API change in Chrome 34 that affects Live Preview that might cause your issues.
In the meantime you can use Brackets (http://brackets.io) to see if it works for you with Chrome 34. EdgeCode is based on Brackets and provides the same features as Edge Code.

Hope that helps,
Ingo

Excellent- Preview seems to work just fine in Brackets - Thanks for the tip.

So, I can get the live preview to work in Chrome 34. Mac OX 10.9.

However, I get a latent error window that appears and says the Live Preview cannot load. However, the Live Preview is still working. Does anyone know if there's something just not configured correctly?

A new version of Edge Code CC is available that fixes this problem.
