Flash Player broken in Safari 6, Mountain Lion

I cannot get FlashPlayer to work in Safari, even after trying  all approaches I found in this forum.

Although FlashPlayer is installed, when I go to a Flash page Safari tells me FlashPlayer is not installed and asks me to install it.

Safari extensions are activated, other extensions (like Evernote Web Clipper) show up. Other extension are working fine.

FlashPlayer is working on Chrome.


This is what I have tried so far:

Reinstalled newest version of Flashplayer (10.8.800.94)

-not working-

Uninstalled Flashplayer using the Adobe uninstall routine.

Reinstalled newest version of Flashplayer (10.8.800.94)

-not working-

Uninstalled Flashplayer using the Adobe uninstall routine.

Run disk permission repair in Disk Unitility

Reinstalled newest version of Flashplayer (10.8.800.94)

-not working-

Manually removed flashplayer files from Library/Internet Plugins.

Reinstalled newest version of Flashplayer (10.8.800.94)

-not working-

This is really annoying. Can anyone help?

System:

MacBook Pro Retina 2.9Mhz i7, 8GB RAM

Mac OSX 10.8.4

Safari 6.0.5

Download the offline installer here: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_player_11_osx.d...

If it won't download directly, right click and "Save as" DO NOT mount the DMG or run the installer yet!

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins

Trash the Flash Player.plugin file from there

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe

Trash the Flash Player folder (the whole folder)

Empty the trash

Reboot

Mount the DMG and run the installer.

BEFORE opening any Flash content in Safari, open Safari>Preferences, and check the Security tab to make sure "Allow all other plugins" is checked.

Thanks a lot. Works now. Apparently the different installer and maybe the reboot did the trick. ("Allow all other plug-ins" had be checked before.)
