    How do I configure DW to open and load a file?

    LDMartin1959 Community Member

      I have DreamWeaver CS5 running on a Mac. Whenever I double-click to open a DreamWeaver compatible file (such as an HTML file), if DW is not already open, DW launches but does not load the file. Once DW is launced, I can double-click the file and it will load. How do I configure DW to open and load a file together?

       

      DW: v11 b 4993

      OS X: 10.7.4 (11E53)

          HTML files are normally configured to open in a browser. The default on a Mac is to open the file in Safari.

           

          You can right-click the filename in the Mac Finder, and select Open With > Dreamweaver CS5 from the context menu.

           

          Alternatively, select an HTML file in Mac Finder, and press Cmd+I to open the Info panel. In the Open With section, select Dreamweaver CS5 as the default program, and click the Change All button.
