How do I change letters for proper video controls eg I currently get displayed a "f" for play.

I'm getting letters instead of normal video play control symbols eg f for play, t for full screen, d for volume symbol etc. I need the symbols! Otherwise I'll be uninstalling firefox and installing internet explorer.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

I just followed your initial instructions about allowing firefox to choose its own fonts. It seems that has solved the problem. Thank you.

Hi, can't see any option that specifies the answer that solved my problem. But I marked it as helpful if that's what is meant.
