Hi..

I use Google Sheet a lot...
Normally, there's no problem.. But lately, something's wrong if i do works on my Mac

On Windows, when I click on a cell, i can directly type in it. And when I click Enter (Or arrow keys @ Tab), i can continuously typed in that cell.
But now on the Mac, I need to click 2 times (or press Return) to enter anything (clicking once and type, nothing happen). Same as after going to the next cell. I need to press Return, then I can only edit the cell.

The most annoying thing is, when I click any cell and move my cursor, it'll automatically highlight all the cells in between.

Not sure if this happens to all Mac or my machine only.

Safari only for Apple enhanced sites. It tends to break compatibility with other sites. Chrome perfect for Google enhanced sites. Edge also ok on Google sites.

I only used Safari for banking. The rest used Edge.

I mostly used Chrome on Windows, but tried to use Safari on Mac.
I don't have any major problem, but for now, it's that weird google sheet thing.

Just tested a blank sheet. Click cell, type, no problem. On macOS Monterey and Safari.

Ya strange. I rarely use Sheets so can’t say why. Maybe some extensions interfering.

I checked. Currently there's no extension installed for Safari.
But i noticed that if i try to use it on a new separate profile, there's no problem..
So, currently it only affect my current profile or Safari...
