Cookie 6

Perfect!

For me, this problem was related to remnants of Cookie 5. Once I got rid of those, everything worked as promised.
FYI, this is what I had to do:

Drag Cookie 6 to AppCleaner. Reinstall Cookie 5, then drag Cookie 5 to AppCleaner Delete anything related to Cookie 5 that didn’t get uninstalled in Containers folder and Applications Scripts folder Empty the trash Reinstall Cookie 6 AVOID option to import Cookie 5 settings Allow Global File Access
Then the Enable Safari browser function worked and I’m able to get to the cookie window.

@jperegrine you may need to whitelist some of the RED tracking cookies for any sites you have trouble with.

expand the troublesome domain by click the triangle indicator right click any RED cookies and select Add to Whitelist

Awesome. Thank you!

Are you displaying all Data? or just cookies?
You may not actually have the local storage databases added as favorites - if you have the Cookies view loaded.

cold you post a screenshot of the allow window?
I wonder which window it is, you may be trying to give access to a path which doesn't exist - ie the flash folder, if you dont have flash installed could cause a loop like this.

make sure that the Automatic Removal haven't become paused. you can check by making sure the Start button in the main window is de-pressed

if you quit Cookie
then you can delete this folder:
~/Library/Containers/com.sweetpproductions.CookieApp

Thanks, Russell!
I did this and now the messages concerning Firefox don't show up so far. I just did a few quick tests but no more annoying permission-messages right now 🙂
"Global access" is ok for me - but it would be great if you can find a solution/fix for specific permissions. So I'm looking forward 6.0.5 🙂

CU,
Philipp

HSTS cookies tend to get restored via iCloud (or more likely some other mechanism)

Unfortunately not with Cookie

@SweetP Thanks for the putting this old duffer straight. I don't know when I turned safari/icloud on , must have been when setting up Catalina.

All the best

perfect,
Ill maybe release it today as v6.0.3

you just need to click the Allow button. Cookie 6 needs access to that entire folder
🙂

I just sent you 4 crash logs. I didn't notice there was a reply here, so sorry for my slow response.

@SweetP I didn't realize I had to register for this support forum to get Cookie upgrade offers. I have sent several emails to SweetP asking if there is a "coupon" for an upgrade price since I first saw an announcement without any response. In my emails I sent my earliest license key (2013) and my license key for version 5. Now that I've found this forum, could you send me the special upgrade price coupon?

When Apple finishes reviewing it...
I uploaded it at the same time as I released v6.0.1 on my store. In my experience, Apple seems to be doing a one month long review, and then moves to a normal 1 day review timeline. So I guess it still has a week to go before release...

V6.0.2 is actually almost ready for release too.
