Sam proposed the following answer:
Sorry that it failed.
Firefox was closed and you did restart it after installation?

You may try adobe-flashplugin like Lanza did here.

Again make sure only one flash app at a time.

If nothing helps and you're using compiz, try to deactivate it (visual effects=none) in 
system preferences -> appearance

In case to get some messages start firefox in a terminal.
Or check .xsession-errors in your /home/username directory.
Use the Help button for 'Report a problem' to generate and upload an Apport crash file in order to report a bug.
