Today, when I opened Firefox web browser and go to a site(s), I get a different appearance to what I am used to and I don't like it. I have downloaded the latest version of Firefox (91.0) but this has not helped. I use Firefox on a Mac. Any suggestions on how to revert to the previous appearance would be appreciated.

After I restarted my computer today (08/12/2021) I noticed that Firefox was not loading websites properly. They're still functioning, but the backgrounds aren't loading in right and that makes navigating them a little tedious (e.g: floating my mouse around where I think navigational buttons are until the hovertext pops up because the lack of backgrounds are hiding the buttons). It looks kind of what I'd imagine the outline of a website would before the background and images loaded in. I've tried disabling/resetting Firefox add-ons/extensions, refreshing Firefox, restarting Firefox, uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, I've even restarted my computer a couple times, but nothing seems to help. I've also tried seeing if it was a problem on the websites' end, but I've opened them on safari and it has no problem loading any of them. Has someone else experienced something like this?

Hi All,

Yesterday I received update 91.0 of Firefox...normally all goes good.

However, now when I open my setting, the background is black.

When I go to eg Tools > Download...also black.

I have checked all setting, and nothing points to a black theme.

Also my windows setting are correct and not pointing to a black theme.

I am kinda getting annoyed why nowadays all needs to be black themed, I and would like to see it the way it was, bright and not this depressing black.

Please can someone provide advice/instructions how to resolve this?

Many thanks in advance.

I've been using Firefox for years but I am stuck with this problem. Firefox just updated to version 91.0 (64-bit) and now webpages are not being rendered correctly as per the attached screenshot. It seems to be a selective CSS issue and it is across all pages.

I have tried restarting the computer, clearing the cache, and changing the theme. This is happening on two different Macs both running macOS v 11.4.

The first image shows the page in Firefox, and the second in Safari (and how it used to look in Firefox before version 91).

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

On some sites (e.g. Nottinghampost.com) left click does not open links/ pages. It shows that ti is a link (hand mouse pointer) but will only open with centre click in a new tab. I see that this is a problem that others have had in the past.

I have run Firefox in troubleshooting/ safe mode and problem still happens, so not an extension/ theme issue. I have rebooted the computer and I also always clear cookies/browsing history etc when I exit Firefox, that has not helped. The page links work properly in Chrome. I have also done a virus scan (Panda AV)

I am using current Firefox 91 on Win 10 Pro 64, recently updated but I believe the Firefox issue existed before update.

The issue has existed all this week and possibly longer.

Every time I check the box for "Ask to save logins and passwords for websites" and select my options, the next time I start Firefox the box is unchecked and it never "asks" like it should. To add further insult, even though the login and password from a previous log in has been saved, the Firefox saved log in does not work. What is happening?

Is there a way to determine where the add on saves files? I do not see any way to do this. My preference for "file saving" is "always ask" and I can't seem to add MP4 in the applications box. This is not a problem with Video Download Helper (3 colored circles). That add on allows one to select where things should be saved. Sometimes that add-on does not work but Video Downloader does.

Every background on every webpage is white. I have tried: - Safe Mode - Refreshing Firefox - Restarting my Macbook - Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox

None of these work and the issue isn't on any other app Even webpages which are set on dark background by default (say, Netflix, I'll add an example) are ovverriden with white. Several UI elements look broken now.

Firefox did an automatic update install, and now all windows are drastically affected. For example, my Google calendar, I can't differentiate the colors of each of the calendar. It's as if all the colors have been deleted. All lines are bold. All text has a white box behind the type. I can't figure out how to change it back. And now there's a folder on my desktop called Old Firefox Data. I appreciate the help, this has been my go-to browser forever but it's unusable at the moment.

All of the colors are gone from webpages in Firefox--I've attached two images of Outlook: One, largely in black-and-white, was taken on Firefox, and is how Firefox has looked for two days now; the other, the one that is colored properly, was taken on Google Chrome, and is how Outlook usually appears. Unread messages aren't showing up tinted blue on Firefox, either, but the words are showing up bolded, like they usually would.

All websites look like this. On websites that have an image background (i.e., Netflix), the image appears, but the links (Log In, Forgot Password, etc.) are all in white boxes. Also, some things just aren't showing up--for instance, at the bottom of this page, there's a box that says "Email me when someone answers this thread," and I can't see if I've checked it or not--the checkmark isn't showing up. The issue there isn't that I'm not clicking it--earlier, I uploaded a video to YouTube, and where it offers the options "Yes, this video is made for children," and "No, this video is not made for children," the checkmark didn't show up, but YouTube allowed me to post the video anyway, indicating that I had, in fact, checked the box.

I've tried restarting Firefox in Troubleshooting Mode, I've turned off all ad blockers and extensions, I've changed the theme, I've restarted Firefox, I've restarted my computer, and I've re-installed Firefox, and nothing is fixing the issue. The eye strain is so bad I can't use Firefox; I've been using Chrome.

Is there a way to return to the more slimmed-down tabs and menus design of before? Because the latest update has all my menus double-spaced, and they're so bloated now that it's really hard to find anything with half the information spread out to take double the space.

To fix this, I have tried other users' suggestions of disabling proton, which had worked previously but no longer seems to have any effect as of the latest update. I have also tried the "compact menus" workaround, but that doesn't affect the double-spacing within the drop-down menus themselves.

I have two Mac computers and have used Firefox for the last 20 years on them. With the 91 update, things look the same on my iMac Mojave but my Macbook Pro using High Sierra looks totally different and "blank."

In this first photo, this is what it used to look like and in the second photo, this is what it looks like now on my Macbook Pro. All the websites I go to are now blank looking as if they are missing parts. The weather channel is the same. It is very blank and bleak. How can I get back to the way it looked before the update? (I had version 90 before) Thank you, Martha

After FF 91 installed when I go to something like the Watch page on Facebook, there is no border around content to define it and as a result (?) on my videos the controls such as the Audio button is nearly invisible off to the side of the content. While I can see a symbol there is nothing to click on that is visible but clicking above the audio symbol on pure white will turn the audio for the video on. There is no slider visible. If I click on a video to make it larger there is not minimize button in the upper left like there used to be. This is entirely broken. I don't want to downgrade as it is my understanding I would have to create a new account and then try to resync my other devices. I will have to abandon FF if this isn't fixed or until I learn how to fix this. I tried turning strict privacy off to no avail and changing the them to no effect.
