Firefox showing black screen after Mojave update (MBP '13 Non Touch Bar 2017)

After the Mojave update Firefox is not working. It shows a black screen on launch and nothing works. Even when I open the "about Firefox" pane the dialog box that appears is black. I've uninstalled and re-installed but in vain. I've even tried installed the beta and nightly versions, but same issue on those as well. My current Firefox version : 62.0.3.

hi mera

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities

just try to uninstall Firefox and download it again

To uninstall Firefox, follow these steps:

  1. Close Firefox (if Firefox is open): Click the Firefox menu at the top of the screen, then click Quit Firefox.
  2. Open the Applications folder in Finder.
  3. Drag the Firefox application to the Trash.

Your uninstall of Firefox is finished.

Cheers!

Thanks for the link but, according to the page the problem is unresolved, can't be reproduced and lastly, I have 5 Macs running Mojave with Firefox and Firefox Nightly and have no black screens to be found.

If you wanna full dark mode with Firefox without black screen, you must only write in the terminal:

defaults write org.mozilla.firefox NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance 1


see discussion posted by u/MaresDoOrgasm: https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/9jr2zy/how_to_enable_mojave_dark_mode_fo r_applications/


only change 0 to 1


Don't need logout


luck! <3
