Hello. I noticed that snippets are missing from my search. I have a macbook where i also use firefox, but on my macbook the snippet box appears. Eventualy i found out if i disable javascript from firefox the snippets will appear but the webpage will be centered and very badly designed...

I'm going to leave two pictures explaining what im saying. One from my mac, one from my windows desktop.

Things i have done already:

Run firefox with no extensions Uninstall and install it again Format my pc ...

Please someone help me how to fix it. Thanks in advance. (Sorry for bad english)

Hi neves2k, your screenshots seem to be in two different languages. Is Google serving you results on different sites, or auto-detecting your preferred language differently in different installations of Firefox? That seems strange but maybe if you go to the language settings, you can get your preferred language results on both Mac and Windows?

They are both in same language. Portuguese

That's interesting that they use such different terms for "About" when giving you the estimated result count, and have different Login button text. ??

I don't have an explanation for why Google gives different results pages on Mac and Windows when it comes to that highlighted result. ??

Thank you for reporting back on that. Google serves results in mysterious ways!
