Update to Cookie v5.5: cannot be run

[SweetP]

The Aap Store version is now available

[wills22]

I've installed 5.5.2 from the App Store but it's not working.

When I launch it, I need to reenter my password for the App Store.

No icon appears in the Task Bar or Dock.

The process appears for a few seconds in Activity Manager, then disappears.

No crash logs at ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports

Please help!

Thanks...

Also, I don't see "the 'Subscribe to this thread' link towards the bottom of the page"–is there something I'm missing?

[SweetP]

My apologies.
I have a fix waiting in review with Apple now.

In the meantime you should be able to delete this folder to reset Cookie:
~/Library/Containers/com.sweetpproductions.Cookie5

Thanks for the prompt reply, Russell!

Will this delete all my saved Cookie settings (i.e. websites)?

[SweetP]

unfortunately yes it will...
...but you can be more selective and just delete the preferences file:
~/Library/Containers/com.sweetpproductions.Cookie5/Data/Library/Preferences/com.sweetpproductions.Cookie5.plist

That didn't work, Russell. It launched, but as soon as I checked the box for the browser, it quit. Then when I relaunched the app, the same thing happened. Any idea when you'll have a fix? Thanks, Will

v5.5.3 should fix this. i uploaded to Apple last week before Easter, but they rejected it for a strange reason. And its now caught up in the holiday backlog i guess.

[wills22]

Okay, thanks!

Ive changed what Apple didn't like, and have added a few other small fixes and rue-loaded as v5.5.4.

it should be available tomorrow.
