When I type in something with "fi" in the formula bar, the cursor can't go between the "f" and the "i". When moving the cursor with arrow keys, the cursor remains on one side or the other of the "fi" when it should be in the middle. Sometimes this means you select more letters than it appears if you click and drag then copy and paste text from the formula bar.
This is presumably a Calc problem (formula bar?), thus component set to Spreadsheet. It sounds like a ligature substitution issue (f+i->fi), but I am unable to reproduce the problem under GNU/Linux using v4.3.2.2. Possibly a MacOS build or MacOS font issue. Summary edited for clarity. Please confirm that my adjustment of the component and summary are accurate. What font are the problem entries set in? Status set to NEEDINFO. Please set back to UNCONFIRMED once the requested information is provided. Thanks.
The font used was the default font, Liberation Sans. This was in Calc.
Confirming, pretty annoying that, seems like an automatic ligature is created LO 4322 OSX 10.9.5

Worksforme in Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 7dc6c9af4ba313f054331f5130470d83d875bc16 master daily build As I don't know which piece of code changed, or whether it will be backported, setting as resolved worksforme
@js54434 : please try a latest daily dev build. If it still doesn't work for you with a fresh user profile, re-open.
I just tried the last development build I could find for OS X 10.7, Version: 4.3.3.0.0+ Build ID: 50eac342603ca08d808f53dc9a32bb9d1dfba372 and the problem still exists.
4333 is not a dev build, but the future 433 release.

If those master builds don't work with 10.7, then I'm afraid you are stuck with your problem and it will never be resolved, unless by chance someone finds the code code and agrees to backport it to a stable version that runs on 10.7

In fact, latest nightly dev build is here http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/MacOSX-10.9-x86_64@53/2014-10-14_02.40.20/master_nightlies~2014-10-14_02.40.20_LibreOfficeDev_4.4.0.0.alpha0_MacOS_x86-64.dmg

In any event, I'm glad the problem seems to be fixed in future versions.
