(defun C:zoomall (/ layouts num)
  (setq layouts (layoutlist)); list all paperspace layouts in the drawing
  (setq num 0); zero counter
  (repeat (length layouts); Repeats the plot command on all layouts
    (command "_.zoom"
	     "_a" ;; Specify corner of window, enter a scale factor (nX or nXP), or
[All/Center/Dynamic/Extents/Previous/Scale/Window/Object] <real time>:_e
    );; end _.zoom
    (setq num (1+ num)); Increment counter
  ); end repeat
); end function

You need to get into each Layout before Zooming in it.  [The way you have it, it just Zooms All as many times as there are Layouts, but always in whatever space you happen to start in.]  One way is as done in the attached, though that contains commands for Zooming to the Limits or to the Extents, one or the other of which may give different results than Zoom All, depending on the relationship between drawn content and the Limits.  You could add a ZAAL command to do a Zoom All in each, if you like.

You're welcome.  I added a command to Zoom All in All Layouts [ZAAL] to the updated attached version.
