Can't install add-in for non-administrator

Hello all,
I'm having trouble getting the Adobe Connect add-in installed under a non-administrator user's account. I found a successful method of installing it in this thread, but that method is no longer working for me. As the forum in question is currently down, I'll paste the post below:
I know this is an old thread, but we recently had this issue. Our users do not have the ability to install software, and using admin credentials at the UAC prompt installed it in the admin's profile, instead of the user's.
Here's how we solved it and made it per computer on Vista SP2. All without turning UAC off.
1) Log in as an admin and install the Connect Add-In.
2) Browse to the plug-in directory; directory should contain 1 .exe and 1 .s. **Note, there is a space in ...\Flash Player\...**
C:\users\%your_admin_account%\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\connectaddin6x5\
3) Run the connectaddin6x5.exe file, which will create 2 .dll files. It will also launch a window, which is okay to close after the 2 .dll files have been created.
4) Copy "\www.macromedia.com\bin\connectaddin6x5\*.*" to a central location for easier access.
5) Copy "\www.macromedia.com\bin\connectaddin6x5\*.*" to c:\users\default\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\connectaddin6x5\*.*
**When any new user to the system logs in and their profile is generated, this will include the Connect Add-In plugin
6) For users who already have a profile, we created a simple .bat script to xcopy the directory structure and files created in Step 4 to "C:\Users\%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\"
7) Have the user run the script once and the plug in will be installed for the user.
8) Log in to/Refresh the meeting.
I hope this helps. If there's a better way to do this without disabling UAC, I'm interested. Or maybe an MSI to push with GPO. Or even a Setup.exe that can be run with User privileges. But with 10-15 users per computer and 100+ computers, this was our best solution.

The computer that I used this method on had the add-in working fine until a few days ago, when the add-in stopped being recognized. Repeating the process yielded no results. When installed as an administrator it works fine, and launching the browser under administrator credentials allows the add-in to run, but this is not an acceptable solution for the long-term.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Having the same problem has anyone come up with a fix yet?
Since the connect 9 update to our hosted account we can no longer use in the connect add-in for meetings. we lose all the screen sharing option that we once had working fine.

  • How can I install gutenprint drivers for my Epson Stylus Color 440?

    Good day all!
    I have and old and useful printer -Epson Stylus Color 440- and just bougth a cable for connecting it to USB port. Add a new print on its Print and Scan Preference Panel and it was recognized inmediatly, but I was told there was not any driver to that printer.
    Tried to set "Epson Stylus Color Series" on its driver but when I went to print, printer seemed to work but does not eject any ink. It seemed as if I were ran out of ink; its car moved over the places occupied by the photo and sounded as normal printing, but not a drop of ink. I checked on an older windows pc, and ink is full, printed normally. I also looked for its drivers on Epson pages, but it seems there are only available for previos Mac OSs, not for X.
    A son told me that in his Snow Leopard MacBook White there's a dirver called "Epson Stylus Color 440 gutenprint" on his Print and Scan Driver Menu; haven't tried to print from his MacBook yet, and as I searched, those are open drivers.
    I wonder if I can download and install that "Epson Stylus Color 440 gutenprint" from the web, of if there's a way to copy it from my son's Macbook, when he comes and check.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • TS3147 Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R2000 because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.

    Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R2000 because it is not currently available from the Software Update server???
    I am using mac osx 10.8 and now cant get print software for epson R2000 printer.

    After system update, my Epson Stylus SX 535WD was ''gone''. I tried in vain to add it as an IP printer (got the IP-address from the printer). The printer model is correctly recognized, software download starts -- but then  the "software ... is not currently available..."
    Resetting  the printing system did not help. Downloading Epson Printer Drivers v2.15.1 from  here
    did not help either, downloading Epson Printer Drivers.
    In the end, I re-installed the printer software from the original CDs. After that the printer showed up as a Bonjour Printer, and I could add it without problem.
    But note: although the printer is installed now and working properly, I still get the old error message (...software ..not available...) if I try to add the printer as an IP printer !?

    I am getting the identical error message for an HP Officejet 7200 series printer.
    First there is a message that software is available from Apple.  You click to get it.  Then it tells you that it is not currently available from the software update server.
    I am running OS 10.8.2.  Printer is on my home network (not USB).
    I went to the Apple Software Dowload site and re-downloaded the latest "HewlettPackard Printer Drivers" (v.2.12) and installed them (twice).  No dice.
    Anybody found a way around this problem?
    I solved all print related issues by avoiding HP, worst software I ever saw, this may not work for you though.

  • Can't install the software for the Canon MX870 series because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.

    I'm trying to setup my Canon MX870 USB ink jet printer plugged into my Airport Extreme's USB port.  However, I keep getting a message of; "Can't install the software for the Canon MX870 series because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."  And then I have to click cancel.
    The "Print & Scan" from System Preferences, can see the printer as it has the NAME: Canon MX870 series,  and the LOCATION: 'the name of my network',  and USE: MX870 series.  But after clicking "Add", it tries to install the software (I've already installed the latest drivers however on my Mac Pro) and that's when I get this message;
    "Can't install the software for the Canon MX870 series because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
    Any ideas, help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello Marty,
    It sounds like you are not able to add your Canon printer in System Preferences.  I found an article with steps you can take to resolve this:
    Resolution
    USB printers and Bonjour-enabled network printers
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.

  • How can i install / add Urdu as additional languag...

    how can i install / add Urdu as additional language in my nokia E63

    You will have to visit a Nokia care point to get additional languages installed, but I would call the care point you intend to visit first to hear if they can do it, and what it would cost you.
    This will be an extra service as you have bought a device intended for use some where else.
    You can find your nearest care point here:http://europe.nokia.com/support/repair-and-recycle/repair/care-points
    Give them a call and check out your options. Good luck!
