Note that a 32 bit Firefox version will require 32 bit versions of plugins, so make sure that you have the correct version.

Firefox also finds the Flash plugin for me as installed by the Flash installer rpm file

/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so As an alternative you can install the Flash plugin (place a symlink) in your home directory /home//.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

You can try to delete the pluginreg.dat file in the Firefox Profile Folder and maybe addons.sqlite as well to reset the plugin registry databases.

  • I am already tried with "Cross Browser Flash Detection in Javascript" link. My issue here is, i am getting using this code "navigator.mimeTypes["application/x-shockwave-flash"]" this returns an object which helps to identity the flash has installed or not. But issue is, it works with Chrome 29 and IE 8. But undefined returned with Firefox 30. – Dineshkumar Jun 09 '14 at 13:04
