Yesterday I ran an updater for Flash. Now I cannot view Flash content in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. I've uninstalled Flash and re-installed, yet the problem persists after restarts.
I'm on 10.9.2. Flash player is 13.0.0.182 (I think). Any ideas how to get this to work? Do I need to downgrade to an older version of Flash, and where would that be?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Everything dealing with Adobe Flash should be done on their website = Adobe Flash Player Software. Prior to installing their update, you should first uninstall all of the previous versions by using their Flash Player Uninstaller. Was this done?

Flash Player 13 may have some bugs. It might be really good idea to go back to 12...….77 for a week or so.
That can be found on the main Flash page, just look for the link for older versions:

pick the one I suggested above, and download it instead of 13. Whatever they did wrong should get fixed by next week.
Thank you Grant, I was able to uninstall the 13 and replace it with a 12 and that got my browsers working again. Obviously Adobe has some work to do on 13.
Yes, I uninstalled and reinstalled. I also did the Disk Permissions repair. It didn't help, but Grant's solution of reinstalling 12 was the solution. Thanks for responding, though. 🙂
Thank you for reporting back which solution worked for you. It will help other Mavericks users who are having the same issue.
Update released, worked for me:
