Q: not enough disk permissions for adobe flash update
I've been to Apple Genius bar for this problem not too long ago. Problem resolved--genius guy says to run AdMedic....that was affecting my permissions or something. Come around again for another update and same problem. Ran AdMedic with no issues appearing. What do I do? This is a recent problem of mine and Adobe updates.
MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):

and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. It is highly recommended that you carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser. More advice here:
