I'm in DW8 I have had no problems up until today. Yesterday I made some style
sheets and saved in a new site root folder. Today I opened DW8 to do some
maintenance on an existing project, when I added content to a new page I saved
and DW8 asks the page is not saved inside the root would you like to save there
now? If I choose yes DW just goes to the drive the site is on, if I manually go
to the folder where I need to save it won't allow me in (its not greyed) but I
cannot save any pages in ANY of my existing site root folders. Anybody please
, I'm dead if I can't fix this. I'm in OS X

Pick a site. Tell us what the path is to the local root folder in your site
definition.

Hi Murry, I forgot to tell you that about 3 hours ago I had a blackout and all
my DW files are on a seperate drive. I believer the permissions may have gotten
screwed up, let me repair or look into that first, what a day from hell!

Could be the problem....

OK volume had slight problem but disk utility fixed. I still have the DW8 problem, what do I do now?

Are those folders read/write enabled?

site - industrialstrength (200GB: industrialstrength)

I'm able to make changes to pages already in the site using save but if I open a new document and try to save it to any site DW8 will not open the root.....strange?

Sounds like the site definitions are goofed up.

Try this -

In Site Manager for one of these sites, EXPORT the definition. Then REMOVE
the site. Then IMPORT the definition you just exported. Does that ?

Found out it is the disk, I made a new site on another drive and it is DW is
working now I have to hope when I copy the sites to the other drive those prefs
are not goofed, now I find out my brother d loded trial versions of Flash and
DW cs3 on the same drive that has the problem, lemme uninstall those and then
look into it more thx I'll let you know what happened
