How do I install Flash 10 so that it will work in all user accounts?

I have added an account for an 8-year old boy to access DisneyXD, Nick, etc. The problem is that I can only get Flash to work from my account.
I am running Windows XP and IE Explorer 8.0. I've tried the following:
* Giving administrator privilege to the new account and installing from there.
* Applying for and obtaining a free license from Adobe that's suppose to enable me to allow access via shared folders.
* Made certain that all the flash-related files in my account's Documents and Settings directory tree are also in the new account's, and in the Shared Documents.
The behavior is:
* If I install it from my account, it works in my account. When I got to the new account and access a page requiring it, it doesn't see it and asks me to download/install/upgrade Flash. When I try, the installation fails with no explanation. (I followed the trouble shooting steps suggested at this failure.)
*If I remove it from my machine and try to install it first from the new account (still with administrator privilege) I get the same unexplained failure.
I'm certain that I am not the first to want to do this. What am I doning wrong?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Sharma,
Here's step by step what I did after your last post:
1) I re-installed Flash from my account.
2) I Deleted the other account, along with all files associated with it.
3) I created a new account with administrator privilege.
4) I logged off my account and logged onto the new account.
5) I started WINDOWS explorer and navigated to windows/system32/Macromed/Flash
6) I ran FlashUtil10c (See Screen Shot One)
7) Clicked "Install Now", program ran and I got a box that indicated it was 100% complete.
8) As I watched, FlashUtil10c, Flash10c.ocx and uninstall_activeX all three disappeared from the folder. (See Screen Shot 2)
9) Logged 0ff the newly created account and logged back into my account.
10) Tried to access a game that required flash and got the screen in Screen Shot 3.
11) Re-installed Flash from my account.
I'm right back where I started. This has got to be a common thing for people to do. Where am I going wrong? The installer I'm using is "Install_flash_player_10_active_x" that I downloaded from a site I got with my free license and about which Adobe declared: "You may not share the above link, share information with others, or publish the above link on websites, blogs, or by any other means that can be publicly accessed. "
I appreciate your help.

  • How do I install flash player from the home screen?

    I am operating Mac OSX.  I have flash player version 16.0.0.  I can't play any videos because my flash player is out of date.  I download the latest flash player and when I go to install it, it takes me here www.adobe.com.  There is no "Install flash player" prompt like there used to be.  There is a "Download Creative Cloud" prompt for a fee.  I go to the menu and there is no install flash player prompt.  I go to Adobe Flash Player in the lower right hand corner and it prompts me to download the flash player again but not to install it and then I end up right back to the Adobe home screen again where there is no install flash player prompt.  I search "install flash player" and it takes me to a prompt to download the flash player again which of course brings me back to the home screen where again, there is no install now prompt.  I've been at this for days, extremely frustrated.  How do I install flash player?

    Hi Alicia,
    If the browser is opening when you attempt to mount the DMG image, then somehow, the browser has been set as the default program to open DMG files.  You'll need to change this association for the DiskImageMounter.app file to be the default program to open the DMG file.  Please do the following:
    Select the installer DMG file and CTRL-click on the DMG file.If DiskImageMounter.app is available, select that and skip to step 4 below
    From the menu, select Open With > and then select Other...to open Finder
    In Finder, navigate to /System/Library/CoreServices, look for DiskImageMounter.app and select it
    At the bottom center of the Finder window, put a check in the box next to Always Open With
    Click Open in the bottom right of the Finder window
    This will mount the DMG file revealing the installer app.
    Double-click the installer app (Install Adobe Flash Player.app) to launch the installer dialog window.
    Follow prompts to install Flash Player

  • How do I install Flash Lite 3.1 to a Windows Mobile Device in Australia

    Hi All,
    I am just an end user not a developer. We have a mixture of devices (Palm Treo Pro, HTC Touch HD) that we want to run a Fash Version 8 website. How do we install Flash Lite OTA on these devices to view the flash content?
    We are in Australia.

    I had some success installing on a real Mobile 5 device [http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5344195]
    There is a link to a doc on the main download page, item 5 under How to Install. [http://java.sun.com/javame/downloads/sdk30ea.jsp] I used this for the real device, Treo 700w. Did not try it with an emulator.
    The support looks to be an emulator rather than a JVM per say. But then again I could be wrong on that. I too had poked around looking for a JVM, CrEme, J9, etc..
    I do have a commercial app installed on the Treo that uses IBM's J9, which is seems requires a contact with a sales person to get ahold of. I had hoped to find something that might clue me in on how to "hook up" my own J2ME app with the J9 installed by the commercial package. But I've pretty much decided to get a real J2ME handset rather than continue to waste my time hacking up something with WM. Now the question is which one makes a good reference platform?

    How can i install Flash Player in my iphone 4?

    This won't be possible.  Due to restrictions from Apple, plug-ins are not allowed in Safari on iOS.  Instead, all  flash based applications that choose to do so are distributed via the app store using Adobe AIR.  From an end users perspective, you won't know if you are using a native or flash based app.
