Flash Player For Multiple Users On Same Computer

While surfing. I got a message to update Flash Player. When I
did, issues began to occur for other users on my home computer. The
adminstrator could view web pages with Flash content, but no other
users could, including other adminstrators on the computer. After
looking at support documents, I uninstalled the flashplayer - then,
reinstalled using a different administrator id. Now, that id can
view Flash and no others can. I have tried changing screensavers as
suggested in another support document, but no luck. How do I get
Flash to work for all users?

It might be a permission problem in the Flash Player install folder. Try a clean install on the original machine.
If that does not resolve your problem, can you tell what Windows version & edition you are using?
Also check the permissions of all files in
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
C:\Windows\Syswow64\Macromed\Flash

Problems installing flash player for all users on a computer (domain)

Hi all,
I've had a quick search but have unfortunately not found any answers.
I've just setup a new image using WDS to install 55 new Dell computers. Flash player was installed as part of this image, the problem i'm getting is that if I log in as a domain administrator I can run flash fine with no problems, however if I log in as a domain user, and try to visit any site that requires flash, i can't seem to view any flash content.
When logged in as the domain user and navigate to control panel I can see the "Flash player settings" option and when I view installed software I an see that flash player 11 is installed.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be? - Do you require admin rights to view flash files?
Any help would be extremely grateful!
Thanks.
Matt

Sharing library for multiple users on same computer

I have 2 non-administrator accounts and an administrator account on one Mac. (G5 running Tiger). I have tried various ways of sharing songs between all of these accounts. What I am trying to do is have the 3 accounts show the same songs when they open iTunes. I want to be able to add songs to any of the individual accounts, and have it show up in all 3. I do not want to make 3 copies of each song. I can't seem to get this to work. I had this working before I upgraded to itunes 9. Now no matter what I do, can't get it to work. Can someone let me know how I can set this up?

Use tweakUI, google on it to get it and install it.

For multiple users on a computer, will Firefox Sync synchronize all the users on a computer or only the one logged on?

For multiple users on a computer, will Firefox Sync synchronize all the users on a computer or only the one logged on? For instance my spouse and I will share a laptop and I want to sync my Firefox when I log on there also but do not want to sync her data.

How to restrict login for multiple users having same Role

Our Web Application is deployed on Tomcat 5.5
The requirement is ?
There are roles in application like "operator", "admin"?
There are multiple users created for each of the above role.
When one user of "operator" role is logged in, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, if user did not log out & application gets close, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, it should not allow to login for multiple requests of same user
(using another browser instance...)
Is it possible using session object?
But, using session object, it will create separate objects for different users,
So here I will not be able to restrict session object creation rolewise.
Also, how to retrieve these multiple session objects created for different users on server?
If anyone is having the solution please reply as soon as possible,
Thank you.

To tell you the truth, this is a stupid requirement. It must be an extremely fragile application.
In any case, you will have to write your stuff for that. Probably a filter that on login, logout, and session expiration checks, makes, or removes entries in a DB (using a synchronized resource to prevent race conditions) or possibly even simply in an application context object.

Triggering a sub work flow for multiple users at same time.

I have a scenario in which I have created sub workflow as an activity for approval process. This sub work flow should be triggered for multiple users at the same time and their decison is independent of each other.
This is like creating multipe instance of the same sub work flow and then the sub work flow runs indepedently as a new work flow for each of the approver and the process is completeded for approver independently.
How can this be achieved?

Tyr to do like this,
1. First include the subworkflow in the main workflow template.
2. Now include standard Block Step in the main workflow template.
3. In the block select the block type as ParForEach.
4. Before doing the 3rd point make sure that all the agents for whom you want whom you want to initiate the workflow, populate them in a Multiline conatiner element.
5. Once completing 3rd and 4th points open the block step under the tab ParallelProcessing assign the multiline container element name in the for e;g if the multi line container element name is COSTCENTER then do the binding like below. the conatiner element COSTCENTERLINE is created by default once you include the multi line conatiner element under parller processing tab.
&COSTCENTER[&_WF_PARFOREACH_INDEX&]& --------> &_COSTCENTER_LINE&
Now assign the agent of the subworkflow as COSTCENTERLINE , imean if suppose you have 3 entries in the internal table then three separate and for three different agents the workflow is instantiated.

Multiple users on same Computer - Licensing for this product.....

We are using a Mac Pro with Creative Suite 4 - Design Premium and have 2 active users on the computer. We recently discovered that if user "A" has an Adobe Program running and user "B" attempts to run an Adobe Program at the same time we get an error code "150:30 - The licensing for this product has stopped working and needs to restart." We are then forced to re-start the whole computer.
This is super annoying! Does anyone know what is going on? We would like to be able to seemlessly switch between users without having to close what the other one was working on.

It is as simple as going to File>New Catalog and fill in the name for the your daughter's catalog ... then navigate to where you woulke to save the catalog ... I believe the default location is in the logged in user's Pictures folder ...

How to use Keychain for multiple users on one computer?

I have a new Macbook Pro with Yosemite. I just moved over from PC for my work computer and the Keychain thing is killing me! I am a social media consultant so I manage multiple accounts for multiple clients. I need a way to log in and out as them on many different platforms. The reality is that I am the only user but I log in and out of different things as if this was a public computer with multiple users.
PC allowed me a drop-down option with each login. For example the email box could be clicked and then I could select the client email that I needed to fill in. The password would then auto-populate. Is there any setting I can change to make this happen on a Macbook? I have been logging in, deleting the info in Keychain, then logging in for the next client, delete...etc.
Most password managers don't work because of this same problem. Please don't recommend a password manager app unless it can handle logging in and out of (for example)10 different LinkedIn profiles.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Home sharing to Apple TV with multiple users on same computer

I have two different users on the same computer. To facilitate sharing their music and movies to eachother, they are each using Home Sharing with the same Apple ID. As long as both users remain logged in, this works with no problem. Except for Apple TV. The Apple TV can see each library, so they both show up in the list under Computers, but only one is accessible. It's either the first one that broadcast itself, or the first one that Apple TV connected to, I'm not sure which. But, once that's established, the second library will remain in the Computers list, but any attempt to connect to the library will fail. It appears there is a limitation that Apple TV can only connect to a single library per physical computer, even though it can tell there are multiple libraries there.
Does anyone have any idea how to work around this without consolidating the libraries? Being able to connect to multiple libraries is the goal, not consoludating them.

I don't have that set up anymore, but used to. I had no problems sharing from either library. Of course it may have changed since I used it, but wouldn't see why.

ICal sharing with multiple users on same computer

How can i set up iCal to share with multiple users on the same computer?

yes, BUT... you need a central repository for the master calendars, usually referred to a Calendar Server. If you are not using a Mac OS X Server on your private network, I think you can use web-based servers that use standard calendar protocol.

Auto update flash player for standard user without notification

Hello, I hope I don't ask an already answered question, I've searched around without finding precisely what I'm looking for, but if I've missed something please point me in the right direction.
I'd like to know if there is a way for flash player to be automatically updated while a standard user is connected (no admin rights) and without any notifications.
So far I configured the mms.cfg file (in c:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash for a win7 64bit) with those settings:
AutoUpdateDisable=0
AutoUpdateInterval=0
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging=1
(the autoUpdateInterval=0 is for testing, I plan to put a 7days delay
I plan to update all our clients with the latest version of flash player via sccm and add this file during the process.
Then I hope that I won't have to push any other updates (until I guess version 11.5 or maybe even 12...)
Will those settings will work as I intended?
As we'll use 32 bits browsers do I need to put this file also in c$\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash ?
If it wont work, is it doable?
thanks!

Hi ersatyle,
Thanks for clarifying.
will flash player be automatically updated while a standard user is connected (no admin rights) and without any notifications.
By pointing the Background Updater to an internal server, yes.
Are those settings will work as I intended?
The AutoUpdateInterval setting in the mms.cfg has no effect on the Background Updater. AutoUpdateInterval can only be used for the notification updater. If you're setting up background updates from an internal server, this property is best dropped from the mms.cfg to avoid confusion. The other settings will work as expected. Once you have your clients set up and tested, I also recommend dropping SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging, since this will reduce the size of the log file.
As we'll use 32 bits browsers do I need to put the mms.cfg file also in c$\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash, If it wont work, is it doable?
There is only one location for the mms.cfg. The same file is used for 32-bit and 64-bit browsers. From the administration guide, page 22:
mms.cfg file location:
Assuming a default Windows installation, Flash Player looks for the mms.cfg file in the following system directories:
•32-bit Windows - %WINDIR%\System32\Macromed\Flash
•64-bit Windows - %WINDIR%\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash
Note: The %WINDIR% location represents the Windows system directory, such as C:\WINDOWS.
I hope this answers your questions. Let us know if there's anything else.

Sharing Library with Multiple Users on SAME COMPUTER

My wife and I use Windows XP Pro. We imported all of our CDs to the iTunes on her user account. How do I access or import the library to the iTunes on my account? I want to avoid logging into her account to listen to the music.
The help index has info on sharing music for multiple computers on a network but I didn't see an answer for sharing music between multiple user accounts in XP on one computer. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Windows XP and authorizing multiple users on same computer

What is the best way to share songs and authorize multiple users (unique XP users on the same computer)?
Are all users on XP considered to be on unique authorized computerers?
Thank you.

Authorization is done on a per-OS basis; all users on one OS installation are considered to be on the same computer.

App updates for multiple users on same Mac with maverick

Background. I have a single iMac that I have been using since ~2007. It's a family computer and there are three(3) accounts/users on it. I am the administrator for them. The operating system has been kept up with each OS upgrade since its purchase. We are currently using Maverick.
Problem - In the past with all the other operating systems (pre-Maverick), when a application needed to be upgraded I could log into my account (administrator rights) and perform the necessary upgrade and it would propgate to ALL the users on this computer. However, since upgrading to Maverick I can no longer just upgrade on the administrators account (i.e. mine) and it propogate to the other users. I now have to log into each individual account (i.e my wifes and sons) and perform the upgrades to their account.
Question - Does anyone know if there is a way to allow the administrator to perform the single upgrade that propogates to others users in OS Maverick without having to log into each individual accounts and updating each account separately. Also does anyone know why OS Maverick no longer supports the capability like ALL previous OS's have in the past?
Thanks

Ok thanks. The apps that I'm referring to are: Pages, keynote, numbers, iMovie, and iPhoto. Each of these were originally purchased or came (iLife / iWork) with the machine when I purchased it. All of those apps are located for each user under HD/Applications folder. Each user does have a apple iD for itunes and itunes purchases for songs etc. but all applications are purchased by me the administrator and placed in the HD/Applications folder. So I'm not sure why I now (since upgrading) to Maverick need to go into each account and perform the updates to these apps. All previous OS updates never had this problem.
Does this now mean for each user that I perform the update my HD is getting multiple downloads and installs and increasing the amount of usage per application. For example if "pages" takes 1 Gb and I install it for each user will it now take a total of 3Gb for the 3 users?
Thanks for your help

How do you limit TOC navigation for multiple users on one computer?

If you have 5 Adobe Captivate 5.5. Projects linked together to play consecutively how can you set up a TOC so that each new user starts from the beginning and can only go back to slides that the new user has viewed? We have the TOC set to Enable Navigation, Navigate Visited Slides Only, and View Status Flag. This is a required training video that will be taken by many users. We need them to be able to go back to the sections that they already viewed but not be able to see the sections that others have already watched. In other words, we don't want them to be able to advance ahead to the sections that the previous test takers have viewed.
Message was edited by: DOLOnlineTrainers
Problems:
•     Remove the TOC and they have no navigation abilities to see something they may have missed
•     Keep it in and the viewer can advance to parts they have not viewed as the previous user set the ability
•     Put a back button in and they can only go back one at a time and have no ability to get back to where they were if they keep hitting back other than watch over
•     Tried the clear button in TOC under status flag which clears the status flags yet it only works on one section at a time and does not clear all linked projects
•     Is there something we are missing? Tried reading blogs and really can’t pinpoint problem

To get each user to have a different experience when viewing the content, you need to have some way for each user to be uniquely identified, otherwise the browser has no way of knowing that THIS is not the same person that was looking at the content an hour ago. The way this is normally achieved is by getting users to log in as a different profile.
There's no EASY way I can think of to achieve what you want WITHOUT users having different profiles. You would need to get some custom HTML programming done by someone that basically mimicked separate browser sessions under the same login. It's theoretically possible, but I've never been required to do anything like this.
