The bottom line is that flash for Linux is no longer supported beyond what you already have installed. It's a pain in the asphalt but you will just have to muddle through with what's available. I watched a flash video just a few minutes ago and I had to tell Firefox to use what it already had. It just doesn't seem to remember from start to the next start that you want it to use what flash plugin it has installed. There is no fix. There will be no fix. [ unless someone can crack flash and write a whole new plugin from scratch. ] At some point you may never be able to watch a flash video again in Linux. We will just have to learn to live without it.
FWIW, my granddaughter complained that Firefox on her Ubuntu 14.04 laptop was throwing the flash version warning. This was just last night. So I pulled an update, which fixed the problem without even rebooting the box. I don't know what Ubuntu did with flash, but it seems to work.
