I've tried putting libflashplayer in just about every directory and still FF won't see any plugins?
FF runs ok but does not find any plugins on a 64 bit Linux system. I put the libflashplayer.so in /lib64 as well as /usr/lib64 and /usr/firefox and /usr/firefox/components. FF version is 6.0.2.

If you have a 32 bit Firefox version then you need to place the plugins or symlink in a location for 32 plugins.
Also make sure that you have 32 versions of all plugins.
Try /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
The link provided by cor-el is valable information on locating the directories FF was using. In my case I had to use the Program manager in order to remove the older flash plugins. Then do the "find / -name libflashplayer" and clean up the system by deleting them. Then I installed the new flash player from the net. The new installer put the plugin into /usr/lib/flash-plugins/ and /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/. Not correct for me, so I copied it to /firefox/plugins which is where my FF is located. Now all is fine.
Thanks for the help. The link from above was:
