Comment: Hi We have an imac with some users setup, I have also enabled root user login. When I upgraded quictime to quicktime pro and also added more slick transition in imovie in root user, the other users does not have them. Is it possible to do that without logging in to each users and installing it again, I thought the root user login does that. Ken

Check your installer logs to be sure. p

Reply: (edit)Hi They are ending in the individual users library folder. There seems to be no option to change path during the installation. Ken

Reply: (edit)See if manually moving the files over to the system-wide Library folder helps at all. p
