I have flashplayer in the path .mozilla/extensions/(folder containing flash) i get an error with a yellow x when trying to do anything with flashplayer, and when i check flash extensions from my browser, it says the current (3.something) version of flash is installed. yet when i try to play pokemon tower defense 2 or use pixlr, i get the error no flashplayer found on the yellow X background, and it lists many paths. how do i change the path?

i just uninstalled freshplayer, but this did nothing if thats important.

The Flash Player from Adobe is a Plugin and not a Extension.

You may be able to install the NPAPI Flash Player Plugin in your package manager. You should however uninstall the old Flash 13.0 you appear to have.

Or you can get it from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Since I am the only user I tend to use the tar.gz archive as I just extract the libflashplayer .so from it and place it in /home/username/.mozilla/plugins/

Note the plugins folder is not there by default so you need to create it.

The downside with the manual method is you have to update manually.

If Firefox was still running when you do this then either restart Firefox or in the Location (address) bar type about:plugins so Firefox will scan for the updated Flash Player Plugin.
