When ever I go to youtube I get this message "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. " and most videos will not play. I click on the link underneath saying "Download it from Adobe."

It takes me to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ where It says the following:

Version 12.0.0.77

Your system: Windows 64-bit , English, Firefox

I click to install and go through the install process.

When I try youtube I get the same message, problem remains.

I have checked javascript is enabled. I do have IE also on this computer and I noticed last time I tried this process it opened IE after finishing.

Many thanks for any help.

My system: Windows 8.1, firefox version 28.0

Note that both IE (ActiveX) and Google Chrome (Pepper) come with their own versions of Flash that are developed by Adobe in cooperation with the developers of those browsers to get the best performance.

Firefox uses a different (NPAPI) Flash plugin than IE (ActiveX), so make sure to install the Flash Player plugin for Firefox.
Your above posted list of installed plugins doesn't show the Flash plugin for Firefox.
