PowerPoint add-in is not working when installed for All Users using msi installer.

Hi All,
I have created PowerPoint add-in using c#-vsto. I have created msi installer to install this add-in with following two options:
1. Just me
2. Everyone
However, add-in is not working properly (Events and custom task panes are not working). 
I have created registry key as below
1. for "Everyone" : HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\Powerpoint\Addins\MyAdd-in
2. for Just me : HKPU\Software\Microsoft\Office\Powerpoint\Addins\MyAdd-in
But when I set InstallAllUsersVisible property to False (When add-in is installed only for current user ), then add-in works fine for current user.
Please let me know if anything is missing!!!
Thanks

Hi,
This is the forum to discuss questions and feedback for Microsoft Office, the issue is more related to develop the add-in, you'd better post your question to the MSDN forum for VSTO
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=vsto&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

  • Preference Panes - Install for all users, after the fact?

    Is there any way to get an already installed Pref Pane to install for all other users once it has been installed for the main account? I am hoping for a way that doesn't require uninstalling the current Pref Pane and reinstalling, some have settings I don;t wan't to lose for the main account.

    Thanks for the reply.
    The app (Bamboo Dock) has installed in the root applications folder. When I'm logged in as the administrator I can see the proper icon in the apps folder and run it. however, when I log on as my son I can see the app but the icon is the default icon with the A and the pencil on and the app won't run.
    I didn't have a choice where to install and the app did not ask me if I wanted to install for all users.
    I was wondering if I could run the installer app from the terminal with sudo, then I would be giving the installer app the authority to write the receipt? I don't know if this would work or how to do it if it would.

  • Install for all users

    Hope this is the correct forum for this question...
    I have just purchased a Bamboo tablet and installed the accompanying software on my iMac as an Administrator.
    I can use the installed application no problem. However, my Son, who has a standard account, cannot access the installed app. I tried reinstalling it while signed on as him but then the install failed because it could not write a receipt.
    Any ideas how I can get this app to install correctly? Can I install it from terminal using sudo while logged in as my son?
    Thanks,
    Stuart

  • Single Webstart install for all users on a PC?

    Is it possible to do a single install of a Web Start application for all users on a Windows PC? Currently, it appears that each user would have to do the installation.

    I have the same requirement as mikemil. I have read the documentation as dietz333 suggested!
    What have I done:
    - created all the required server side stuff for JNLP
    - created the client side properties.config file referencing the server side system deplyoment.properties via a url
    - this server side deployment.properties contains the property:
    deployment.system.cachedir=c:\\temp\\ws-system-cache
    With that I can do on a client:
    javaws -system <my-jnlp-url>
    All works as expected. Everything gets downloaded and cached in the specified c:\temp\ws-system-cache!
    When I try to "start" <my-jnlp-url> from a browser (ie) it will be stored within the user cache! So, I have to change file association for the JNLPFile type to contain the "-system" option. With that it also works with links in the browser.
    My questions/comments:
    - this requires "some" administrative effort on the client side. Is there a less administrative solution?
    - since there is only a "system" specific location for the deployment.config all Java WS applications ever started will go into this system cache. Wright?

  • How to make custom icc color profile work as default for all users?

    Hi!
    I've calibrated two monitors for the machine running Mavericks OS X. I've managed to move these custom icc color profiles to ColorSync folder in HDD Library, so that that they are available for all the users. However, I cannot figure out how to make these icc profiles work as default profiles for all users and not only the one I used to calibrate monitors.
    Is there a specific place I have to put custom icc profile to make it system default?
    Thank you!

    If you put the profiles in the root /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder, then each user needs to select them in their account. There isn't a way to apply them globally so each account automatically comes up that way.

  • Configure "Always hide forms document message bar" and "Do not show edit warnings" for all users?

    We need to do a mass deployment of Adobe Reader XI 11.0.3 with "Always hide forms document message bar" preference setting automatically set for every user so they do not have to go through the menu and set it manually.
    Is there a way to configure this for all users with the customization wizard or another method?
    We also need to do the same for "Do not show edit warnings"
    If these are registry keys, which registry keys set these options?

    Try http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/PrefRef/Windows/DocumentStatus.html?zoom _highlight=message#idkeyname_1_5647.
    If that doesn't work and there's a configuration item in the preferences UI, do this:
    Get regshot.
    Close everything but Acrobat/Reader.
    Take a reg shot.
    Configure the setting via the UI.
    Tak another reg shot.
    Compare the two.
    That process will give you your answer.
    If there is no corresponding pref in the UI, then you probably can't do it.

  • Itunes Not Working When Installing New Version

    I installed the newest version of itunes today. I was a bit afraid that it wouldn't work, because the last time I installed Itunes 5, it stopped working. But 3 days later, Itunes started to work again.
    Well, the same thing happened this time and it's not working.
    I tried uninstalling quicktime and 're-installing/repairing' itunes, but that's not working.
    I haven't uninstalled itunes because I don't know what will happen with my purchased music. So, if I did uninstall itunes and later on try to install itunes again, what would happen with my purchased music?
    And any suggestions as to how I can get itunes working?
    Thanks.

    hi thegoodfight!
    And yes, I do have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on this PC.
    ... thought so. every now and then the NIS 2005 itunes "error-message-free" launch suppression problems would clear up overnight of their own accord.
    lets give the trusty Lorraine M technique a whirl. (it's the most reliable technique i've seen with regard to fixing the NIS 2005 things.)
    Lorraine M: NIS/itunes problem rectified
    if no joy with that, we'll try working through another few possibilities with the error-message-free launch suppression problems.

  • Vast Apple Conspiracy! (iPod Not Working When Formatted for Windows)

    Alright, I know this isn't the place to make the claim of an Apple conspiracy, but as a mac user who proudly has an apple sticker on his car who has experienced the events below first hand - I feel there is only one explanation one can come to.
    VAST APPLE CONSPIRACY!
    Alright, my friend has a 30GB 5G iPod and runs windows. I own a MacBook that has OSX 10.4.7 and Windows. He has had problems in the past with his computer, but never with his iPod until the 1.2 update rolled out with iTunes 7. Now after one move of the cursor or change of menu the screen turns into a bunch of pixels reminiscent of a television set to static. Only it makes no noise and never moves, it just sits with the backlight on until it dies, or until you hold the menu and center buttons, then it restarts and does the same thing.
    So being the good nerdy friend that I am I offer to take it home and reformat it on my Mac then on Windows to see if maybe that helps (thinking something is up with his computer again). It starts out promising enough, because I was able to reformat it for Macintosh load on music, videos and games play them all and shut it down properly.
    So I switch to Windows XP and reformat it for Windows in iTunes 7 and the same problem starts up again!
    Now aside from a vast Apple conspiracy, does anyone have any suggestions, perhaps others are experiencing this problem? Keep in mind the iPod worked fine when formatted for Mac and it is highly unlikely two Windows computers have the exact same flaw (especially on mine that goes almost unused and has virus and spyware protection).

    Ummm
    the APPLE software is less than a month old. I am sure it was tested extensively on APPLE computers before release. Due to apple's configurations there are only a few systems it had to be tested on.
    Now on windows... how many of thousands of geeks out there build their own machines with different graphics, audio, usb pci cards etc etc... Impossible for apple to test it out as extensively on win xp...
    I imagine in 2 - 3 months we will have itunes 7.0.2 or 7.0.3 that addresses many of the issues windows users are having. That's how it was with itunes 6, this is not a new phenomenon by any means.

  • Bluetooth keyboard not working when prompted for wifi splash screen io7

    I just upgraded to IO7 on my ipad and I use the apple bluetooth keyboard. However, when the WiFi splash screen appear to login using say Cisco's login the keyboard does not work. Meaning it does not accept keystrokes. Because the keyboard is paired there is no way to show the normal onscreen keyboard unless you unpair.
    My work around has been to dismiss the splash screen and open up safari then try to hit a website which then produces the splash screen within the browser. Then I'm able to use the keyboard again. Anyone had the same issue and is there a work around as this is highly annoying.

    Thank for showing interest in my situation and trying to answer, however yes...
    FROM ABOVE: "Attempting to repair the keyboard accomplished nothing, however I did learn that when prompted to enter the bluetooth 4 digit code for pairing the keyboard was able to send the 4 numerical digits and striking the return key did succesfully pair the keyboard to the iPad again."
    I'm going to try "Forgetting the Device", turning off the Bluetooth Keyboard, Turning off the iPad 2 iOS7, Turning the iPad 2 iOS7 back on, Turning the Bluetooth Keyboard back on, then setting it up via the Bluetooth menu again. Doubt turning off the iPad will accomplish much, but it will be good to have it scratched off the list.

  • Logic Additional Content not installing for all users

    I've got a MAC installed on an Active Directory domain.  If I log in as the local administrator account, Logic runs fine, but if I log in as any network users, it loops around the 'downloading content' loop for ever.  I've downloaded the .pkg files separately but when I go to run them, it prompts me for credentials and whatever I use, it just crashes out.  Any ideas how to progress this?
    Thx

    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

    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. 

  • Firefox won't install for all users in Windows 8.1; only installs for administrator

    Since moving to Windows 8.1, I have been unable to install Firefox for multiple users on this laptop. Firefox installs only for the Administrator (me), and does not appear on any other user account. When I try installing from one of the other user accounts (after entering my administrator password), it simply won't install.

    Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

  • Problem with "Group By" in Views - Not Displaying the Same for All Users

    We have an Announcements List with its only View being set up to group by a metadata category field. We've done this many times on other kinds of lists and never had a problem. But with this list, about half the users can see only the ungrouped
    set of announcements, whereas others actually see the items within their groups.
    Those with "View" rights only can't see the grouped items - but that appears to be a coincidence as I promoted them to the same rights as others who can see them correctly, and that did NOT solve the problem. Everyone is using the exact same browser.
    Note: the users who do NOT see the groupings see only a single category entry that displays only the name of the category list (but not the names of the actual categories within the category list). All the announcements are grouped under that one
    entry for those users. This display looks exactly like it would if the categories had been left blank when the original announcements were created. But the categories are NOT blank, and the rest of the users can see them just fine, and the announcements display
    within their appropriate groups.
    I can't find anything in the View, the List Settings, or the User Permissions to explain this. What could be causing it, and how can I fix it?

    Browser settings are controlled by central IT and are all identical. 
    The only difference I can detect is the second set of users (that don't see the category options) have only Read rights, whereas those with Contribute (or above) rights can see the categories. It doesn't make
    sense that permissions would affect this, but I can't come up with any other differences.
    Microsoft will not allow me to upload images. it says I can't upload images until they have verified my account, but there is no clue as to how, if or when that might happen. If you can tell me how to fix that, I can provide samples.

  • Are installed apps installed for all users? ...

    Moving to a new Mac Mini from Windows 7, kind of an OS X noob here.  ;-)
    I created several accounts for all 5 of us in the family. Logged in as myself I installed Google Chrome, accepting the defaults. I see it in my account, but not in the others.
    Is that normal behavior? Do I have to install it separately foer each user account? What's the best way to handle this?
    Thanks very much in advance,
    Chris

    If you install the application in the Applications folder at the top level directory of your hard drive it will be available to all users. If a user installs it in the Applications folder inside their user directory it will be available to onlly that user.

  • Many add-ons do not work when upgraded to Firefox 3.6.10 on mac

    After upgrading to v3.6.10, my Firefox kept on crashing when I attempted to open the app. I had thought that it could be a particular wrong move to install a recently-added new plug-in iMacros to the browser.
    However, after around 8 attempts at reinstallation with individual plugins/add-ons (eg. Xmarks, etc), Firefox was unable to startup. From my attempts, I believe it might be some error with the new version that might clash with the other plugins that were previously installed.
    I hope some solution can help solve this problem as I would like to try out the new 3.6.10, but since I don't have the previous installer, I have to resort to using a back-dated 3.5.5 version of Firefox.

    Glad to hear I am not alone in this. Same time frame too. But at 11 pm on 15.10 equally suddenly firefox started working again, and now seems fine.
    Errr?
    (glad I have Safari to fall back on)
    The aspxerrorpath has disappeared from the header.
    Hey, Firefox, what is going on ?
