I hope I'm just doing something stupid. I searched the forums first, but didn't find anything.

Whenever I click on the Preview button, I get the error "Visual Site Designer is already open". I use Chrome as the default browser, and gave it access it in Windows 7 firewall.

Did you get this resolved? I am having the same problem now.

Hi Babara, So if you click the preview button in the upper right hand side VSD gives you the error?
Did you try switching which browser is used to do the preview?:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Wonderful! I finally got it to preview in Firefox 4. I was using IE9. Thanks so much. You don't know how many hours I have tried different things. Finally, I can update my website.
