not showing up in 'about:plugins'

Just a shot-in-the-dark:  Is your browser a
32-bit or 64-bit version?  I know you said you had
64-bit F12, but both browser types will run on it, and you
need to use the proper type of plugin.

Also, are you running pluginwrapper?  It's
usually installed and turned-on by default on 64-bit systems
with 64-bit browsers.  It was on mine.  I disabled
it.  No 32-bit plugins to wrap.

My firefox is the 64-bit version.
I have in /usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper several files,so how
do I
know that it is running and how do I disable it.

An 'about:plugins' in Firefox first revealed it to me. 'yum info nspluginwrapper' verified that it was installed. Since I didn't need it, I just did a 'yum remove nspluginwrapper.' But that's the brute force way. In Firefox's menu: Tools->Add-ons; click Addons; click desired plugin, then 'Disable.'
