What is Wrong with Firefox fonts.

Attached is the same web page on Safari and Firefox. This is on a Mac running OS 10.15.7.

This problem has gradually been getting worse over the last month or so. I don't want to run safari... I don't like safari...! Please help, I am not software literate and so incapable of delving into all the hidden layers of code.

My homepage is Google. When i open it on my desktop (win7) the cursor is automatically in the search bar on that webpage. As i want it to be. My number one function when opening firefox is to search google so that is where i want to start. NOT in the address bar ever.

On my laptop (upgraded to win10) it is in the address bar.

I installed the exact same profile from my desktop to laptop.

I have run it in troubleshoot mode and the issue went away. So i disabled all addons and custom themes but issue still persisted.

I turned off hardware acceleration, no change.

What else could troubleshooting be turning off?

Why does the exact profile work on desktop but not laptop ?

This is specific to one website, but it is both new and unique to Firefox. https://playclassic.games/games/turn-based-strategy-dos-games-online/play-sid-meiers-colonization-online/play/

Prior to the last two <Firefox> updates (too many, too frequently!), no problem. Both keyboard and mouse were recognized. Since then, only the mouse, although everything's fine when I use Chrome.

Yes, I'm on the latest version, and have cleared caches and rebooted ... after every new version.

Failed to import CSV file generated by Brave

So I read on Reddit the intentions of Google with Chrome and adblocker add-ons, and I was worried because Brave (my Android browser until today) is based on Chromium as well. I've always been a Firefox user on desktop, and now on mobile as well since the dev team fixed the rendering errors of Firefox on Android. Ok so here goes my question: I've installed Brave on desktop (Linux) since I want my saved mobile login data on Firefox as well. So I exported a plaintext (unencrypted) *.csv file from Brave desktop and I am unable to import it onto Firefox (also on desktop).

I'm aware of the about:config key to be able to import CSV files to Firefox password manager, and is set to True. But the file does not import at all, so I opened the Browser Console and this is the logger output when I try to import the CSV file(screenshot also available):

``` eval() and eval-like uses are not allowed in the Parent Process or in System Contexts (Blocked usage in “chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js”) d3.js:2040:16

call to Function() blocked by CSP d3.js:2040

   parse chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2040
   parseRows chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2088
   parse chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2038
   importFromCSV resource://gre/modules/LoginCSVImport.jsm:161
   InterpretGeneratorResume self-hosted:1458
   AsyncFunctionNext self-hosted:668

``` Then I looked into a CSV file generated by Firefox and it has the password hashed, so how do I need to proceed?

Is there any tool to convert the CSV contents?


Really, I want to use Firefox on all my devices but this change (for good) came from nowhere...

Hope someone has had this issue and can help me.

I got the message : "The address wasn’t understood Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (javascript) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context. You might need to install other software to open this address.". What to do ? (the same does not happen with Edge, for the same URL, in this case my personal account on the French ministry of finance...)

If i open the Passwordmanager firefox askes my masterpassword. After entering it correctly the list shown is empty. exporting to file doesn't export. It shows where to export and the filename but nothing is saved.

Logins still work using autofill so the data is still stored somewhere.

On the web browser the tool bars have grown to fill half the screen. Book marks i was able to control but can find no solution for the others. I cant use fire fox like this. Opera and many others did this in the past and we all came over to fire fox because you were one of the few who didnt take half the screen from us. Is there a solution

other than full screen?

Hello,

I'm currently trying to log-in on Postman application. This aplication when log-in button is pressed a tab on firefox is open with the postman site log-in. The trouble comes when trying to re-open the tab on another container. It breaks the log-in. To resolve this I would be interesting to some way to choose an specific or default container for new or incoming tabs.

Windows 11 Pro 64bit, v.22000. All of a sudden, Firefox goes haywire. Latest is I cannot turn on Open previous windows and tabs in version 104.0.2. The checkbox is simply grayed-out. WHY??? I didn't make any changes - these problems just started on their own. Also, none of my passwords for various websites are automatically available anymore.
