This Firefox / Flash problem has me curious.
I've never had a problem with flash in firefox, except for being not 
easy to install.
But that's a security issue I believe.
But once up and running I have never had difficulties you write about.
I've had to install the combination probably 30 times over the past few 
years on several computers.
I have used F3 right through to F12 on fairly standard clones.
