Hii all. I stuggle with problem of incorrectly working Flash Player a long time. My Firefox don't detect Adobe flash plugin. I did all according to this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keep-flash-up-to-date-and-troubleshoot-problems#w_updating-flash. Flash plugin don't emerge also in Add-ons --> Plugin. After meanted above unsuccesfully attentions to install firefox, I copied mozilla/plugins from /usr/lib to /usr/lib32 and to /usr/lib64, copied /usr/share/kde4/services/Adobe\ \Flash\ \Player to /usr/share/xfce4 and set anywhere my username by owner instead ROOT. This is not solved my problem :(

Debian 7 x86-64, xfce, Firefox 35.0, flash_player_11_linux.x86_64

Sorry this won't help much. Just posting to encourage you to keep trying by confirming Adobe Flash player may be used with Firefox on Debian.

I am posting from Ubuntu, that will allow Flash Player no problem.

I did until very recently have the Adobe Flash Player working on Debian but at the moment Debian itself needs reinstalling, as it is not working, although that is not one of my priorities.

I don't recall any particular problems with the install.

Thank for reply! Unfortunately, this article doesn't helped me, i read it few months ago. Flashplugin-nonfree from Synaptic occur some problem too, when i use Firefox not in ROOT mode it often crash. It work stable in root mode.

Note that you need a 32 bit Shockwave Flash plugin for a 32 bit Firefox version. So if you have a 32 bit version and not a 64 bit Firefox version then check that.
