Dreamweaver Get and Put problem

I am using DreamWeaver 4, and for some reason, I am unable to click Get, Put, or anything else between manage sites and reports. I test the ftp it says, "DreamWeaver connected to your web server successfully."
Any ideas what it could be?

just to clarify, you're using dreamweaver 4 by macromedia or dreamweaver CS4 by adobe?

I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 by Adobe

The only way I can replicate what you're describing is to be in "Testing server" mode, or "Repository view" mode.

If that's what you're doing, just switch to "Local view" or "Remote view".

precisely what I was aiming for. The options dM is speaking of are in the same area as where you get and put files. It's a drop-down menu in the "Files" tab of your "Files" panel.
