If you can’t access Preferences, then you need to do a full reset of Cookie.

Quit Cookie first.

You can restore your settings,
by first making a copy of all the files in this folder:
~/Library/Containers/com.sweetpproductions.CookieApp/Data/Library/Application Support/CookieApp

Then delete this folder:
~/Library/Containers/com.sweetpproductions.CookieApp

Restart cookie,
Quickly skip through the setup.
Quit Cookie,
And replace the files you copied earlier.

Then you should be able to restart Cookie with all your browser settings and favorites.
You still need to go into Preferences and update any settings you had customised (start at login, hide dock icon etc…)

Perfect!
I’ll take a look at my implementation and see why it’s not syncing straight away

@romain said in iCloud functionality?:

If it helps, I grepped the list of folders in ~/Library/Mobile Documents/, but I could not find anything related to "sweet", "session" or "restore". There should be a folder related to SessionRestore, right?
not on my computer at least.

this is strange,
I just re-enabled iCloud sync on my install, and some sessions I had months back when I last enabled it synced right in.

try toggling the setting off (in SessionRestore), then back on. and then restart SessionRestore to force the sync.
do this first in the primary install, then try the same thing for the install you want to sync too

Is SessionRestore listed and checked in:
System Preferences > Apple ID > iCloud Drive > Options

Do you have iCloud Drive enabled on both Macs?

the easiest way is to enable iCloud sync

No problem

You have hidden files showing in your finder. You can hide them with my free desktop utility app:

@pixelarte can you post a screenshot with invisible and the desktop

Are you using some utility which shows hidden files?
