User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:69.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/69.0

Steps to reproduce:

Since update to last version, sometimes I cannot type the letter "Q" (minor), as I cannot type, I cannot show example.

This is not always but ONLY in Firefox (other Apps no problem).

Actual results:

If I would know?

Expected results:

Typing letters, should result in letters being typed.

I could copy it here… :)

Hi 2761c4f2:

Thanks for submitting this bug to us. I've tried to reproduce it using Firefox Nightly 71.0a1 (64.bit - 2019/09/13) and Firefox Release 69.0 (64-bit) on macOS Mojave 10.14.4 and I wasn't able to reproduce it.

I've wrote an email full of q's, searched on google.com for q's and youtube videos and I was always able to write the letter "q" without any issue.

Does this issue occur with a fresh profile? You can find the steps here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Managing-profiles#w_starting-the-profile-manager

Can you please download Firefox Nightly from here: https://nightly.mozilla.org/ and retest the problem and see if the issue still occurs there as well?

If the bug still happens, please leave a comment and I will try to reproduce it again.

Thanks!

Sebastian

sorry didn't have time so far... I will test it this week-end (new profile and nightly version) but I'm still having the problem being unable to write "Q" (small letter)… :/

Currently on 76.0.1 and this issue is still reproducible for me. It only happens after you've worked with Firefox for quite some while, may be days. Currently affected by this bug again and have to paste lowercase "q" into this input field in order to write the text. This is quite annoying. Interestingly, this affects only the HTML part of the browser, I can enter "q" in the address bar or search input field for example.

Workaround: Restart Firefox. After that it usually works until the bug hits you again :-(

Could someone with appropriate permission reopen this bug?

You can keep this bug closed as it is issue with the pwdhash add-on: https://github.com/pwdhash/pwdhash-webextension/issues/10. If you deactivate the add-on, you can enter the lowercase q. Just figured that out as things did not become better after Firefox restarts.
