Flash only works for one user

Using IE7. I have three users on my computer. All
have Administrator level access. Flash only works for one of them.
When attempting to play a video on YouTube for example it says "You
either have JavaScrip turned off or an old version of Adobe Flash
Player."
JS is turned on and the current version of Flash Player is
installed.
So does anyone know what is going on here?
Thanks

I was able to fix my problem of Flash only working on user
account. I did the following two steps to correct the problem:
1. First uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX
control by following the instructions stated in
tn_14157.
2. Second Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission
issues that prevent the Flash Player installation by following the
instructions stated in
fb1634cb.
Following the above two steps, fixed my problem of only
having Flash run on only one user account. Now it runs on all four
user accounts.
As a side note: The Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control
would not run in user accounts with Limited access. But when I set
the permission of the user account to administrative, then Flash
would work.
Regards,
Bob

Flash Player works for one user only

Running IE7 under Vista. Have one other user on laptop with Vista. I am the Administrator.Since downloading latest version of Flash Player it will work on my log in but not when the other user is logs in.
No error message. Simply all Active X items appear as box with a red X. Have checked the Security settings for both users on IE appear the same.
Tried Adobe Support chat service but all they could do was direct me to a Forum.
Any help will be appreciated.

This has come up multiple times over the last few months. There has been a solution posted somewhere in this forum, but I don't remember what it was.
Try searching the forum for "limited user" or such; hopefully you will find it.

Audio only working for one user at a time - flash is the cause

but what is the solution?
OSX 10.6.8
flash player 10,3,183,10
If one user is listening to something via some kind of web (flash) media player, and the other user logs on, then this 'new' user is unable to listen to anything at all - all audio is blocked - not just web stuff
I know flash is the cause as I can go to task manager and kill the other person's flash plug in and the sound comes on instantly
I've tried reinstalling but no joy
How can I fix this?

I've reinstalled flash and checked that I have the latest version but this is getting ridiculous
Everytime I want to use skype or itunes or iplayer, I have to log in as the other user, close down all their web browsers, then go back to my account to get it to work, much to the annoyance of the other user.
Flash now: 11.1.102.55
OSX: 10.6.8

Flash not working for one user, but not another on this CPU

Hi,
For user A on my computer most video will play in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. But video at nfl.com will not play. The ads will play but not the actual feature.
I just found out that the videos on nfl.com will work for user B. I have rerun the Adobe Flash 10.1 installer in user A's account several times with no luck.
Are there permissions or libraries I should trash to try to restore this capability?
thanks,
Steve

HI,
For user A on my computer
Try uninstalling the current copy of Flash, reinstall new, then repair permissions.
Uninstall Flash
Install the most recent version of Flash here.
Now repair permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
You may also need to delete the Flash cache. Instructions here.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11672709&#11672709
If that doesn't help, install the v10.6.4 Combo Update It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.4.

Time Capsule only works for one device at a time, how to make it capable to be used for multiple devices at times

Time Capsule only works for one device at a time, how to make it capable to be used for multiple devices at times.
Please help to set it up, thanks in advance

You need to give more info..
Firstly only works for what.. networking.. backup.. wireless. You need more nouns.. more adjectives... describe what you want and what fails.. then we can figure out why.
Most likely you have bridged it when it should be in router mode..
Most likely you are using Lion or ML which has the airport utility bridge the TC by default.
Change it to working as a router. That might help.
If you press reset button it will default back to router btw.
If you are on Lion.. use a real utility. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1547

Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - not working for one user - working for another

Hi,
I recently have an issue with Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - NOT working for one user - working for another.
Windows 7 updates recently installed ???
By checking the device properties on the user that works - "Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad 13/10/2011 Version 15.3.29.0"
When the other user logs on, the touchpad works for a few seconds, then a displays a black square with a red diagonal line through it, then the touchpad won't respond. Trying to use the keypad to navigate to system diagnosics or anything to find further info is useless....

Hey eagle_no11,
Thank you for joining the HP Support Community!
I will do my best in assisting to hopefully get the TouchPad to work on the second user profile.
What I would like to start off with, is to restore the original Synaptics drivers onto the profile that is not working correctly. I have included the document Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7).
Once you have installed the original drivers, you will need to complete all updates from both HP, as well as Windows. For these updates, if you open the HP Support Assistant, and select Maintain, you should see an option for updating.
Please let me know how these steps do work out for you.
Have a great day!

Account search functinality is not working for one user in portal

Hi friends,
We have configured E.P 7.0 with CRM 5.0 and configured CRM PCUI business package.
We have a role called <b>accounts and products</b> in portal. So accounts can be searched in this role.
Now our severity issue is for one of the super user,for ex su1, accounts search is not working in portal but the same is working in CRM GUI.
for example if we search for an account 233445(or any other account) in portal its showing no data found but if we search with the same criteria data is displaying CRM GUI.
We have checked with other 2 super ids. Both ends portal and gui search is working fine.
Am unable to figure out whats the cause of the issue as search is not working only for one user su1 .
we have checked by restarting the server also to clear the memory cache.But still search is not working in portal.
Could anyone of u please advice ASAP as this is severity issue.
Thanks & Regards
Sireesha.

Hi srinivas,
I have checked both the users credentials,permissions,groups in the GUI and also in the portal.
Both of the users profiles are assigned as same.
Could you please advice is there any other way to check it out?

Sireesha.

Outgoing server works for one user not for other

Hi,
I just made a second user in Leopard. When logged in as the original user, the outgoing mail server works fine in Mail. When logged in as the new user, the outgoing mail server shows as 'offline' in Mail. In both cases the outgoing server is the same one.
As the new user i can only receive mail and not send any. I am pretty sure the account settings on both mail accounts r identical(Authentication, SSL etc.) (except for user specific identification of course)
Any advice/idea on what is wrong and what i can do to make the outgoing server work for both users?
Thx,
Brick

Yes I am certain the authentication is correct. When trying to send a message out Mail gives a message saying my "SMTP server does not support authentication".
When i open Mail preferences. The outgoing server is indicated as Offline.

Safari works for one user but not another on same computer

MacBook with multiple user accounts. Safari (and Firefox) work fine for one user but are unable to open web pages when the other user is logged in. The error in Safar is "Safari can't open the page "http://xxxxxxxxx/" because it could not connect to the server "/xxxxxxx/" . DNS is working for this user. I am able to ping any number of sites from Terminal. Network Preference pane is configured to not require any proxy. This is a case of it was working but now it's not.
Can anybody help with this? I know I can fix this by simply creating another user and transfering the affected user's data to the new account but I would rather not. TIA

HI Bob,
You can test your settings by clicking the big "Test My DNS" button at <https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy>. If you see "Poor" on any of the tests, don't use that domain name server! Remove it from Apple Menu => System Preferences =>Network =>DNS Servers or similar location in your router if you've got a 'home network'. If all you have is "poor" DNS servers in your list, call your ISP and insist that they give you the address of a name server which is protected against the recently exposed DNS cache-poisoning threat.
Also, open System Preferences/Network. Click the DNS tab. Add these numbers in the DNS Servers box.

Adobe flash wont work for general users in Citrix

I have a Citrix Xenapp 5 farm 2008 32 bit and I am trying to get Adobe flash 10 player working for general users. It works fine for admins though not when logging a citrix session as a general user (if I give that user admin rights it is fine). I have used the full edition of the installer with different versions and they all dont work for users.
I ensured that ie security was turned off for both users and computers.
gave read access to some registry enteries.
gave everyone group write access to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed.
I am using the citrix receiver.
it is not being streamed.
I excluded the group policies for the test user and still same issue.
I have tried different versions of flash and nothing has worked. I disabled the gpos for the user and still the same issue. the RSOP didn't have anything that stood out. there was nothing in the event log which gave any errors about it.
Seems to be a permissions issue somewhere.
Any ideas appreciated.

What is your operating system & version?
What is your browser & version?
What means "not working" - what exactly happens when you try?

Flash Player Works for Some Users, Not Others

I have recently upgraded my home computers to Windows 7 (64 bit). My kids all have standard user accounts. I have installed Adobe Flash Player as an administrator. It works for me (administrator) and some of my kids (standard accounts) but not for all of my kids. As far as I can tell, the kids' accounts are identical, so I can't figure out why some of them can use Flash Player and some cannot on the same computers.
For the accounts where Flash Player does not work, we get a prompt to install the latest version (which, of course, is already installed). Even when I try to reinstall it (using my administrator password), the problem is not resolved. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Player, with no success.
I use both Windows Parental Controls and Windows Family Safety for my kids' accounts. All four kids have the same settings. I tried turning these off temporarily to see if that would make a difference but it did not.
I am baffled. Help!

Hi, very confusing, I agree. Here is a link to a thread that the poster found success.http://forums.adobe.com/message/2476140#2476140 (BruceTR)

Also, the link for the live one safety scan by Microsoft: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm

Premiere Pro CS6 stopped working, for one user profile

So Premiere Pro CS6 wouldn't open today. Opened fine yesterday, and the days before that. The program didn't crash yesterday or close improperly. I just get the logo splash screen, but I don't see the usual text stream of applications starting up on it. After a long time I get a Windows message saying it can't open the program.
- I used Bridge to update to the latest version. No help.
- I made sure Quicktime was updated.
- I cleared the preferences by moving the whole My Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\6.0 folder somewhere else (as a backup). Next time I tried starting the program it created a new \6.0 folder but that's as far as it went.
- I deleted AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro. Starting the program recreated the folder, made a Trace Database file but only put two entries in it:
DynamicLink 1 5
FE.WinInit.LocPlugins 1 5
And then it stops there. No other files created.
- Tried starting the program holding the Shift Key, and again with the Alt key, and again with both. No change.
- Rebooted after every change.
I tried logging out as the video user account and logging in with my personal account, and then Premier Pro opened just fine.
Problem is, I need it to work on the video user account because it was created specifically for our video editing PC. Our company logins also tie into our email and other programs. This one was created specifically so more than one person could share Premiere Pro settings and resources, and there was a battle with our IT to get it because they despise generic accounts.
I've seen other threads here mentioning startup problems but the solutions listed there don't work for me. Manually trashing the \6.0 folder didn't help. I don't have a .pref file or Preferences folder other than the \6.0 one. I haven't made any changes to the PC. The video drivers must be OK or it wouldn't start under the other user account. How do I fix this one?

This was Microsoft patch week... did you install Windows updates?
•What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
•What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
•Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
•For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
•-you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself

Workflow no longer works for one user

I have a state machine workflow that I built and deployed over a year ago. The workflow has run without issue until a few weeks ago, when one user complained that the workflow wasn't processing his approval.
This user has been an approver since the workflow was first deployed. He was able to successfully approve as recently as last month. I have tested frequently with this user, and the issue is consistent. Once he completes the task he is assigned, the workflow
doesn't seem to see that the task has changed. If any other approver completes the task (including myself) the workflow runs without issue. I even had the user login on a different computer, and he still encountered this issue. I also had him test this workflow
on our staging environment, and on that server he doesn't encounter the issue and the workflow runs successfully, so this issue only occurs on our production environment.
I don't feel there is a problem with the workflow due to the length of time it has worked successfully, and due to the fact that all of the other approvers (there are many) cannot reproduce the issue. My gut tells me it is a permission issue, but I have
verified the user still has owner rights to the site, and that he has not had any name changes or other updates to his AD account. However, this issue is only occurring on production, and I am not aware of any changes made to permissions on this site. Has
anyone else experienced this behavior?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the workflow cannot work fine when the user completed the tasks.
I recommend to check if the user has permission on the task list the workflow uses.
Open the workflow in SharePoint Designer and check the task list the workflow used in Workflow settings page of the corresponding workflow, then go to the List Permissions of the task list in the browser and click Check Permissions button in the ribbon to
check if the user has permission on the task list.
Thanks,
Victoria
