Okay; nothing wrong; peachy keen.
It very infrequently means 'not okay' or 'I'm secretly having a bad day' or 'something is wrong, but I'm trying to hide/ignore it'.
Good Example:
"Hey, man, how are you doing?"
"I'm all right."
"Good."
"Hey, do you want to go get some ice cream and play some Sega Genesis games?"
"That sounds all right to me, my friend."
Bad Example:
"How's it going?"
"All right."
"Just all right?"
Here, it implies the first speaker used 'all right' in an incorrect sense, which is not likely the case.
Which may be followed by:
"Not 'great' or 'spectacular'?"
This response assumes the day has to be extraordinary or noteworthy. It implies the second speaker feels it's up to them to spice up the first speaker's life, wants to rope them into some time-wasting activity, or just has a terrible sense of humor.

Said at the end of a statement to indicate you want to make sure what you just said is understood. It can also mean that you want the subject in question closed or dropped.
"Kenny, because you do not have liability insurance,you may only wear your baseball cap and winter jacket. Nothing impressive. All right?" said the claims examiner.

I know, know what's on your mind
And I know it gets tough sometimes
But you can give it one more try to find a reason why
You should pick it up, ooh, and try it again
'Cause it's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might work out fine this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out
'Cause it's not too late for that, too late for me
I know I've been hurt before
And I know I really shouldn't give any more
But this time, this time things seem just a little different
And when I look in your eyes, you know I can see that it's true
And I hear you say it's
All right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might work out fine this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out
'Cause it's not too late for that, too late for love
Just when you feel helpless
Nothing left to say
Love will find us, the past behind us
Then we're on our way
Ooh, yeah
Time and time again I see, people so unsure like me
We all know it gets hard sometimes
But you can give it one more try
Find another reason why you should pick it up
Ooh, why you should kick it up, ooh, try it again
'Cause it's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might work out fine this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, think we're gonna make it
Think it might work out fine this time
It's all right, I think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, I think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, I think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out this time
It's all right, I think we're gonna make it
Think it might just work out...
