I am new to Dreamweaver. I have a website hosted with GoDaddy and all the FTP access information. I had my site previously created by a friend in Dreamweaver. He recently sent me the files so I could manage the site myself, however when I entered the information into the remote info section under manage sites it tells me the host cannot be found and a connection cannot be made. I've checked with GoDaddy that the information is correct and I can access my FTP login online. I've tried several ways to enter the information and I get the same message every time. Anyone know what I could possibly be doing wrong?

I have not used Dreamweaver but I have had similar problems with MS Front page. Seems that some FTP servers dont like these inbuilt FTP clients.
You might like to have a look a FileZilla. A free GNU FTP client that was specificaaly designed for uploading web sites to servers. It is far more flexible and gives you more options in maintaining your web site.

Stuart,
Thanks for the info. I will look into it. I'm only confused because the person who created my site did it in Dreamweaver and it worked just fine for him, and obviously something I'm doing is incorrect.
