I was also facing the problem with flash player. This worked for me

Step 1: Open terminal, and delete the hidden folder .mozilla in your
home folder. (/home/your user name/.mozilla)

Step 2: Uninstall all Flash and Firefox packages using Sysnaptic. Just
type: flash and firefox into the search text to find plugins which
installed in your computer.

Step 3: Install Flash player using Sysnaptic.

Step 4: Install firefox again.

Now, you can open your firefox and try again with some web site that
embed Flash inside.
Good luck

Arun
