I have microsoft office downloaded on my mac, but it is only in one account. How do i make it in all the accounts?

There are two Applications folders for programs in OS X. Putting programs in the main applications folder (the one you usually see in the left hand column in finder) will enable every account user to access that program. Each user account also has its own applications folder for programs specific to that user. Any programs dropped into the users applications folder cannot be accessed by other users unless the Admin account specifically gives them priviledges to do so.
Reply:Make sure your installed applications are in the Applications folder. If they are, they'll be accessible on other accounts.
