Hi there,

I am using the current version of Firefox on Mac Os 13.1. When I try to copy a formatted text (e.g. from Pages to Google Docs in FF), the browser deletes all formatting. It is plain text again.

I don't have this problem with any other browser like Safari.

I have already tried troubleshoot mode and to refresh my profile. Unfortunately I still have the same problem.

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance and all the best!

Steps to replicate and screenshots comparing Firefox with other browsers would be helpful. You don't show what your pasting to. I was able to copy formatted text from one doc to another. see screenshot

Below you'll find an example. I copy/pasted from TextEdit to Docs here, but the problem stays the same in Pages or Notes to any text in Firefox),

Uninstall any third-party applications that take over copy and paste functions. Scan for viruses or malware. Close all other applications and processes. Test copy and paste in safe mode. Clear the clipboard. Use the Keyboard troubleshooter tool.

I did all the above mentioned ... still no success. Works fine with Safari or Chrome. Do I have to give up FF?
