This did the trick. Why I can't remove plugins via the tools menu, but can remove add-ons, seems wrong.

Thanks,
Paolo

    Folks,
      I have 2 systems running FC22.  Both are at the latest updates.
    On one system firefox shows I have flash version 11.2.202.521
    installed.  This is the latest version available from Adobe.  On
    the other system firefox tells me I have an out of date version of
    flash 11.2.202.508. This is, however, wrong.  I have 11.2.202.521
    installed. I have verified this by downloading the latest flash
    tar file from Adobe and doing an md5sum on the one from the tar
    file and the one installed in
    /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so. They both have the same
    checksum.  The link in ~/.mozilla/plugins points to
    /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so so the correct version
    should be pulled in.  I tried removing the link in the
    ~/.mozilla/plugins directory and re-starting firefox, but it still
    shows I have 11.2.202.508 installed.  Even after I restore the
    link and restart firefox it still shows I have 508 installed.

    How do I get firefox to pickup the correct version of flash?

    Any help is appreciated.



Close Firefox, edit ~/.mozilla/firefox/profiledir*/pluginreg.dat

Remove all content in [PLUGINS] section, starting from "libflashplayer.so" to "FutureSplash Player"

Start Firefox.
