    I've loaded Photoshop onto my computer but of the three user accounts I have it only seems to load to my User Account.

    How can I fix this so it loads to all acounts?

    You need to change some permissions in the All Users folder. There are several articles discussing the changes required: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/search...t&term="Photoshop"+installation for all users

    Anecdotaly, it is claimed that if you as Administrator, rather than a user with administrative priviliges, do the installation you will not be offered the choiceto install for all users. So if need be temporarily elevate a user to Admistrative-user type and do the install from that account.

    it's probably just not showing as a program goup in all users. if so, find the excutable by rclicking in and choosing properties in u'r logon. note the location of the .exe there.

    then logon to the other account and create a shortcut. use the location above to specify the .exe

    if this works, u can then rclick the 'start' button and choose 'explore'. locate the 'adobe' program group under u'r account and cut/paste it to 'all users' programs section.
