Will face time work for all users on my Macbook

I want to purchase the FaceTime App for my MBP, but i want to be sure that it will work for all users on my MBP. My wife and I (much to my dislike) share my MBP and When i go out of town, I want to be able to use the FaceTime app to chat with her and my son. We use seperate App store accounts for our Iphones (3g and 4s) will this matter?
Thank you

You posted your MBP question to the "Intel iMac Forum." I would recommend reposting in either the Macbook Pro Forum or the Lion OS Forum.
Hope this helps

ADE suddenly quit working for all users on my Vista computer. What should I do?

Please help.
Adobe Digital Editions quit working for all users on my Wndows Vista computer after I tried several times to install a book that wouldn't install. The book is one of three I recently purchased even though the other two installed with no problem. Other books were already installed.
I uninstalled and re-installed ADE with the latest version and tried again after clearing out the "My Digital Editions" folders by moving the contents elsewhere. The same problem occurs with all users on my computer.
The program runs showing no books or bookshelves despite contents in the "My Digital Editions" folder. If I try to "Add to Library," the program shuts down and shows nothing- not even an error message when re-run. Even though I'm only able to create a bookshelf, no bookshelf appers when the program is re-run.
I even tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing my computer.
What should I do?

HI
Whilst your Apple ID (presumably the @mac.com) may have been the original and been linked to @me.com at the MobileMe period and then to iCloud (@icloud.com) you need to keep to the same Apple ID through out (the iMessages server seems to treat them as different IDs to some extent).
In the Finder use the Go Menu > Go to Folder and enter ~/Library/Preferences
Find and Drag to the Trash com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist
On the iPhone remove those emails that are not the Apple ID in use.
On Restarting the Mac version you will have to re-enter the Apple ID.
If you then restart again you should get the pop ups to say what the iPhone is using (linking the iPhone number to the Apple ID)
Once you enable Text Forwarding on the iPhone then the Mac Version should generate and show you the Code to then enter in the iPhone's dialogue box to pair the devices.
If each Contact is turning red as you try to Send and reporting that the Contact is "Not Registered with iMessages" then you have a different issue.
This is caused by a partial login to the iMessages server and it seems it is one of those that only contacting Apple Support and saying you have an Account issue with the iMessages server from your Mac can it get sorted. (make sure you say it is an Account issue)
Of course it is the iPhone that is actually sending the SMS messages so it does need to have Carrier service at this point.

New flash player not working for all users

I have Flash 10.0.22.87 installed on a freshly built Citrix 4.5 PS. When the administrator is signed in, everything works just fine. When my users sign in, they navigate to a webpage that requires flash and it either tells them that Flash is not installed or it prompts them to install (but does nothing when you tell it to).
Did flash player become profile specific with this new release? I have 10.0.12.36 and 9.0.115.0 on my other Citrix servers and they work without issue for all users. I've tried uninstalling with the utility I downloaded from adobe.com and re-installing with the offline activeX control. I've played with the security settings opening thing wide open and it still does not work. There is no different software between the problem server and the other Citrix servers other than this version of Flash.
Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance

I am experiencing the same problem on my LAN. Administrator account the app works fine, end users sign in with non admin accounts and it will not work.
I spent some time reading online and found the following instructions on the NET. I tried them and I thought it worked because I was able to log on as a non admin user test account and the flash player worked just fine.
Log in as Admin
2. Download the following zip file from here:
www.supportflash.com/reset_all.zip
3. Unzip this folder onto your desktop.
4. Drag both files ‘reset_min_all.cmd’ and
‘subinacl.exe’ to your
desktop.
5. Run the reset_min_all.cmd file.
6. It will open a DOS like terminal and start
running through registry
keys.
7. When it is finished it will say “press any key
to continue”.
8. At this point you can install the latest Flash
Player:
for Internet Explorer:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ts/documents/tn_19166/Install_F
lash_Player_9_ActiveX.zip
other browsers:
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
9. Check that Flash Player is working for the
Admin.
10. Check that Flash Player is working as the
other 2 users.
I hope this information helps. Feel free to reply
if you need further
assistance on the issue discussed here or file
a new case if you want to
report a new issue in the Support Portal:
I also found 6 different versions of Version 8 that supposedly does not require Admin priveleges but it does. Back to the drawing board.

Is face time available for all iphone 4 devices?

i have just bought an iphone 4 device and i found out that there is no facetime application on it. when i tried downloading applications from apple store for face time, i had a message saying " your device is not supported". so can this be true? can some devices only have this applications while others not?
Is there any means that i can solve the problem?
thanks for your reply

FaceTime is supported on all iPhone 4 devices. However, governments and mobile providers can restrict its use in certain parts of the world. For example, countries with state-owned or state-subsidized telecommunications companies, or countries that have strict laws regarding communication typically enforce restrictions (at various levels).
The iPhone has a database of the rules and regulations for different parts of the world and will disable FaceTime in regions where a user would be violating local laws or instructions impose by telecom rules. If you operate an iPhone 4 in these areas, it should obey the local rules, whatever they are.

Flash not working for all users XP

I had much trouble downloading and installing flash player.
Finally the install just worked but now the flash player only seems
to work for me. The other accounts on the PC cannot see flash
content. We are usig Windows XP home.

Try upgrading to admin (temporarily) for each account and reinstall Flash Player under each, then set them back to regular user accounts.

Exe created with Report Generation toolkit does not work for all users

I created a exicutable with the report generation toolkit and it only works with some of my users. I use microsoft 2007 and anyone that has microsoft 2007 my exe works well. Most of my users that have microsoft 2010 are able to use my program as well. However, there is one user with 2010 and Windows 2007 that cant get my program to work.
Any suggestions for troubleshooting this?
Thanks

The most likely issue is due to the fact that Microsoft changes the ActiveX object model of Office for each version of Office. The Report Generation Toolkit does a pretty good job of handling this, but it is not 100% effective. Search, for example on the "Set Cell Border" function and you will see what I mean. In these cases it's up to you to handle this issue. How you handle it really depends on your situation. For us to provide a more concrete answer you will need to provide further details, such as what toolkit function is "not working" (whatever that means), and who you "users" are. Is this an internal distribution? Are you selling this program? Is this code written for a project with a specific customer?

Quick time works for one user but not for another

I transferred my user info from my old computer to my son's newer computer. My old computer was running 10.3x and quicktime wasn't working. The genius bar folks couldn't figure out how to fix it. (All quicktime files come up with the logo with question mark.)
New computer (newer) is running 10.4. Stuff all transferred fine. Problem transferred too.
Old user signs in, quicktime works fine. I sign in, quicktime broken.
How do I figure this out?

Inside your hard drive, in the Users folder should be your user home folder (with your account name.) Within that folder is a folder called Library... open that and look for a QuickTime folder within, pull that QuickTime folder out to the Desktop. Do the same for Internet Plug-ins. Then, open Preferences and pull out com.apple.quicktime... (all of them) and the QuickTime Preferences file.
Then log out (Apple menu) and back in (or restart) and try again!

Office for mac not working for all users after migration

Recently purchased macbook retina display and used migration assistant to move everything over from a macbook pro 17" (late 2011). After the migration my login (admin rights) has no problem on the new macbook, but my wife login cannot use the Office for Mac without being asked to do an install.
Problem is, the version we have goes through the install and then asks to 'register' the product and the version is no longer supported so you cannot register, therefor the program will not run.
Am I missing something here? Everything still works on both of our sign in's on the old macbook pro, and on the new macbook retina, office works on my sign in only.
The original install was a download version, so there are no 'disks' to do a re-install.
Any suggestions?

How do I install an Add-on for all users

I wish to user the FoxFilter addon to prevent users from visit all websites, except a whitelist. This addon works fine. I just need the addon to work for all users on the computer. Not just the one the addon was installed for. Can this be done and if so, how?

This is very possible and you can do it in few very steps.
 1-First you have to download the xpi add-on file instead of installing it.
 2-Use the following command at the run prompt (type Windows + R): firefox -install-global-extension
 For example if your downloaded xpi add-on is on C:\Users\Simon\Downloads\
 Then you write firefox -install-global-extension C:\Users\Simon\Downloads
 Note : The addon will be normally available where every addon is. Keep in mind that only administrators can uninstall it.
Have a nice day
Sincerely,

How do I startup an application for all users at login?

I know about launchd, but I want an application to start whenver a user logs in and run as that user. launchd stuff seems to run as root.
I would prefer to set this up to work for all users, but if that can't be done, just for the current user. I have an installer package and Id like to run this command to set this up from a bash script.

I found this bit of code which is very similar to something else I found.
defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/loginwindow AutoLaunchedApplicationDictionary -array-add '{ "Path" = "/path/to/script"; "Hide" = "0"; }'
That doesn't work. Anyone at all, even for a single user, how do I script a command to get an application to start when a user logs in under 10.8?

How do I set Premiere preferences for all users - University lab machine?

I am setting up an editing suite for our University which has a "per machine" Creative Cloud licence. It is a PC installation. This machine will be used by a class of students who will log in with their own credentials. I need to set the preferences for Premiere (video output, workspace layout, default drives etc) so that it will be the same for all users logging in since we want a consistent setup for teaching purposes and dont want to have to help each student set up so that it shows correctly on the monitors. Is there a way of saving this setting as the default for every user?
The most important one is the preferences - Playback in order to set up the second monitor.

Thanks for the suggestion, Chris. I actually did not resolve the issue which is why i did not post an answer.
it turns out that my iphone seems to default to an incorrect User ID (it defaults to an @me account, which is not something that i have ever used).
even when i change the User ID in my settings for the iTunes store, it still appears when i attempt to get updates for my existing apps. however, it does seem to use the correct ID when i attempt to purchase new apps.
If someone actually had an answer to correct this, i would love to update my existing apps.
Thank you.

How do I install a Thunderbird add-on for all users? Putting the XPI file into Extensions folder didn't work.

I'm trying to install Enigmail 1.8.2 for all users. I thought I read somewhere that you don't need to unpack the XPI file.
Whilst writing this, I did some experimenting and found a solution, but it's messy (see below). Is there an easier way?
Fresh install of Thunderbird 31.6 on Windows 7 x64. Have observed the following:
1. If I install the extension for one user via the Add-Ons GUI (from the marketplace, not from a local file), it does work. The Appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Extensions folder is empty. Folder {847b3a00-7ab1-11d4-8f02-006008948af5} is created in Appdata\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\extensions\staged\ and moved from staged to extensions when TB is restarted.
2. If I download the XPI file from Enigmail site and copy it to Program Files(x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\Extensions folder, then Thunderbird's Extensions screen says "You don't have any add-ons of this type installed".
3a. If I rename the xpi to zip (e.g. enigmail-1.8.2-tb+sm.xpi.zip) then I can open it and see that the contents are similar to what was created at point (1). If I unzip the contents, then Thunderbird doesn't recognise the add-on, unless I rename the folder to the GUID above (which could be found in install.rdf or chrome.manifest, once you know what you're looking for).
Presumably I could also have done a per-user install, copied the folder from the profile, removed the extension, then pasted the copy into the program folder. That would save looking up the GUID but is only a little less fiddly.
3b. After renaming the folder and restarting TB, it gives me a new tab "Install Add-on" which says "Another program on your computer would like to modify Thunderbird with the following add-on: ... Location: C:\Program Files (x86)". Once I allow the add-on, it is listed in Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\extensions.ini.
Aside: Disabling the add-on simply removes the line from extensions.ini, so how does TB distinguish between an unapproved add-on and a disabled one? It seems to be in extensions.json.

Is Thunderbird already installed in the computers? If so, you could download the .xpi file and drag and drop it into the extensions window (after opening that) to install it in all the computers, following which you click the Install buttons when they become enabled, and you might have to restart Tbird afterwards.
