Tried so many times. Faithfully followed this advice:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#x86_64

But can't get it to work!

I get as far as extracting - then get this!

You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "file:///usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins"

All I want is flash to work. Please help.

Use the flash-aid add-on for firefox written by one of the ubuntu forum members, lovinglinux. It is a "must-have"!

Even if you prefer chrome or chromium, that add-on for firefox will give you a flash installation that works in the three browsers, and is particularly good at sorting out problems with flash on 64 bit systems
