iCloud Notes shows only black squares instead of open circles

more options

I see this as a performance problem, and one that I'd hoped would be solved by now, since others brought it up in an Apple Forum.

When using iCloud Notes, the list always used to have empty circles/radio buttons to click on when done. They have all become black squares instead. Apparently this happened, according to a poster, with version 131.0. If so, it is still a problem with version 132.0.2, which I currently have.

Please see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255794426?sortBy=rank where this appears in the Apple Forum.

Hi, thank you for mentioning this. It's difficult to track down because the squares are part of an HTML canvas -- which is similar to an image constructed by a script in the page -- rather than a discrete HTML element that Firefox styles directly.

There is a bug report on file for this problem: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1923304.

I think the next step would be for someone to run a MozRegression to track down a specific change in Firefox that was responsible for this. If that doesn't yield a definitive result, it's possible that Apple made a change and that also needs to be rolled back before Firefox can become compatible again.

Thanks.

At least you are aware of it. But until it is resolved, Notes users cannot mark items completed. All we can do is to delete the item; or at least, that's what I do, if I haven't marked it done on my iPhone or iPad.

But perhaps when someone runs the MozRegression they will discover the problem; or on the other hand, it could be an Apple thing too. Apple does fly under a different flag, so to speak, and does not like, IMO, to be particularly useful to those not using the IOS platform.
