Stylized text not appearing correctly on webpages

I'm currently trying to diagnose an issue with my Firefox. Ever since I upgraded to macOS Sequoia on my MacBook Pro, certain stylized/formatted texts in Firefox have not been showing up correctly in the browser. I've attached an example below from YouTube. The part of the stylized title text that says "Playlist" is messed up on the YouTube page, but it's correctly rendered in the tab bar. Pasting the YouTube video title into the search bar renders the text correctly in the search bar, but not in the actual search window or results page. I'm also seeing this issue on Instagram, Twitter, etc., so it isn't just a problem with YouTube/Google. The text renders correctly in Chrome and Safari, so I don't think it's necessarily a problem with my computer.

Here's what I've tried so far to diagnose/fix the issue:

  • Quitting Firefox and restarting my computer: didn't work
  • Opening Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode: the text remains messed up
  • Deleting prefs.js from my profile folder: my Firefox stops working and no pages load, not even the New Tab page
  • Firefox Refresh: also did not work
  • Creating a fresh Firefox profile: the new profile renders the text correctly, but signing into my Firefox account on the profile causes the issue to come up again
  • Uninstalling Firefox completely, reinstalling: the text renders, but once again signing into my account causes the issue to reemerge
  • Opening Firefox on my old computer (also MacBook Pro) while signed into my Firefox account: for some reason, the stylized text renders correctly on this computer

I'm at a dead end right now, and would appreciate any help. I could always just create a new profile and forget about it, but this has been driving me crazy for the past few hours. I really don't want to configure all my extensions and browser settings from the beginning, and I hope that I can keep using my original account.

Anyone have any idea what could be going wrong? Thank you!

Hello! Several days ago I had to make a new Win10 computer account and being that when my FireFox reinstalled all my settings from my FireFox Account after signing in I noticed the small search bar at the top where you could use a different search engine was missing. I have been racking my brain to figure how to get it back. Could someone be so kind as to let me know how do I get the small search bar back at the top. Thank you.

Respectfully, Don

I WANT DOES LINK GONE FROM MY URL so i can put links that i want to be in there and FF 130 address bar being populated by only the links i want to be there and stay that way! and one more thing i want to get rid of that ugly search with google thing because i don't even use google,further more once all of a sudden in FF 130 MY BROWSER IS MANAGED BY MY ORGANIZATION ? That was never there before this update ,so with all that has been said and screenshot as proof i beg you and plea on your kindness and knowledge to give me guidance how to fix this URL thing first,then how to remove THIS BROWSER IS MANAGED BY YOUR ORGANIZATION and last but not least how to block further FF updates because every new update is worse then the next and just keep pushing the whole browser down the drain ! Thank you very much for your kind,unselfish,professional and knowledgeable support in fixing up this mess

How to sign-in to use the "remember me for 90 days on this device" as I get asked to do the 2-step each time?

Since Firefox seems to offer respite from 2-step security each time when using the same laptop, what do I have to do to benefit from it. Each time I tap the box to remember this connection but I still get asked to do the extra step.

I just switched my favourite browser from Chrome to Firefox on advice from an Apple Store advisor trying to use less memory. All the IDs and passwords came over, but logging in to known URLs seems not to just happen on their own, and I have to enter them fresh each time along with 2-step security.

I have a 13-inch MacAir 2018, with Somona 14.6.1 MacOs using Firefox 130.0.1.

By the way, I had previously switched to Chrome from Safari that remembered all logins and 2-step security but took a "year and a day" for logins.

Thanks!

Hello. So, first I have to apologize because I have no idea of the technical names related with browsers so I am going to do my best to explain my issue. I have Firefox pined on my taskbar and when I move my mouse pointer on it, it used to show me all my open tabs in a way that I could see all pages in "miniature". Now, and I don't know why, it shows only a list of the names of those pages. How can I change that? I am sending a screenshot to better expose my issue. Thank you!

Hello,

After a few days I noticed that the option "open with" on the downloads dialog is always grayed out (see the attached picture).

If I go on the settings and tell the browser to not ask and open directly the file, it opens without any problem... (actually it shows an advertisement saying it is an executable file, but when I dismiss it, it opens)

Here are my system setup: Nom: Firefox Version: 130.0.1 Identifiant de compilation: 20240913135723 ID de distribution: mozilla-deb Canal de mise à jour: release Agent utilisateur: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0 Système d’exploitation: Linux 6.1.0-25-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.106-3 (2024-08-26) Thème du système d’exploitation: Breeze / Adwaita Binaire de l’application: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin

Does anybody else is having this issue? Any ideas on how can I fix it?

Thanks in advance for all your help,

Best regards, Marc

I have tried everything ... mime video/ogg doesn't work at all. I started my old Angular application in which i had my camera feed shown (it was working like year or two ago).

So i tried to fix it, first it seemed it just need "muted" and "autoplay" set as parameters in <video> HTML tag. But then it just did not worked at all.

Detailed description: So i have tried use [CanPlayType] With params : "video/ogg" - it returned empty string so it is not supported However when i check your documentation here [Ogg containers] it says it is supported ...

I included picture with working stream and this is a tag i used:

(+ in angular i added mentioned muted and autoplay + load() and play() )

I have tried to transcode to this formats too Theora video and Vorbis audio in Ogg container

   <source src="video.ogv" type="video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"">

Theora video and Speex audio in Ogg container

   <source src="video.ogv" type="video/ogg; codecs="theora, speex"">

Based on this documentation https://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-html5-20090423/video.html#attr-source-src

And use them in video tag param. like : type="video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"" or type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"' did not work.

(This was one that i used before and always:

--sout '#transcode{vcodec="theo",venc=theora{quality=3},vb="",scale="0.25"} :standard{mux=ogg,access=http,dst=":8753"}' 

that worked before)

Then i tried look up some example of code to just see it doesnt work at all (example of guide with not working video/ogg : https://tekeye.uk/html/html5-video-test-page See/search for "3: HTML5 Ogg Video Test" )

Please refer me to bug report or issue report i can provide any additional information.

(PS. this submit page dont have preview ... why ?)
