Why do I keep getting a message saying: "Firefox.app wants to use the font "Bodonti SvtyTwo ITC TT Book" on the volume "Backup" ?
Underneath this alert it says: "This font is not installed. Allow Firefox.app to use this font?"
How can it use this font when it is not installed? Why does it have to keep asking me no matter how many times I push Allow or Don't Allow?
Chosen solution
Move all User fonts in Font Book to Computer fonts:
Font Book > Preferences > Default Install Location : Computer
Select all User fonts and move them to Computer fonts and in Computer, remove all duplicate fonts

Thanks, cor-el. I've opened Firefox a few times now and have not seen that annoying message. :-)
You're welcome and thanks for confirming that the instructions worked.
