 * I have just downloaded your theme PinBin and opened the file.
    It opened in dreamweaver
   but no theme has appeared. Do I need a different program to work on PinBin? How
   do I start modifying the theme? Then connect it to my website? Please help! p.
   s. I’m using a Mac

 * Themes work only on a WordPress installation – do you have WordPress installed
   on your computer or a server?

 * WordPress doesn’t use Dreamweaver – it’s mostly done via any browser.
 * You can’t easily connect or sync your local computer WordPress to a live server
   WordPress site – so if you create a site on your local computer, you have to 
   move the site to the server. See:

 * Like WPyogi already mentioned is is not possible to do anything with Dreamweaver
   unless you don’t have a proper WordPress setup.
 * You might want to look into:

 * And setup local development environment using MAMP for Mac.
