Cookie doesn't see Firefox cookies when Firefox is open
-
Firefox 63 beta 12
macOS Mojave 10.14.1 betaWhen Firefox is open, Cookie doesn't see any of Firefox's cookies (it shows as Firefox having 0 unique cookies). As soon as I close Firefox, Cookie is able to see all cookies and cleanup properly. Previously, Cookie had no issue with showing cookies while Firefox was open; this seems to be a change in how Firefox handles cookies, but I'm unsure when exactly this change occurred.

did you see this thread:

Yup, I double checked my settings and have it set to "Keep until they expire"
It seems as though there was a change in how Firefox handles cookies in Firefox 63. I tested it using a clean install of FF Developer Edition: with FF Dev Edition 62 installed, Cookie has no problem seeing cookies while FF is open. As soon as I upgrade to 63, Cookie can only see cookies when FF is closed.

the latest beta should now work:

not working for me, Cookie 5.9.2 and Firefox 63.0. Cookie displays only favorite cookies, the other ones are not shown. Firefox has a lot of them, but Cookie does not show or delete them. After diabling favorites and reenabling them, no cookies from Firefox are shown at all.

I have the settings just this way. I deleted the cookies from within FF, shut it down, restarted it and logged in to different sites. No cookies show up in Cookie.
Restarting Cookie doesn't help either.BTW, every time I start Cookie it tells me I should enable Full Disk Access, which I have done. I am running Cookie 5.9.2 and FF 63.0

@P-J strange,
do you have Firefox installed in your Applications folder?
are you using custom profiles?Also, is Cookie in your Applications folder?
make sure to delete the Cookie5.dmg file also - this can cause theFull Disk Accessissues you are seeing. -
@SweetP no profiles, all in the standard locations. I had the Cookie5 app (App Store version) still in the trash and the Cookie5.dmg in Downloads, I cleaned that up.
Now it looks better, I am seing more cookies and databases now. So it seem to be working after that cleanup. -
@SweetP after letting both browser and Cookie running for a couple of hours, Cookie stops displaying the non-favorite cookies, it just shows a handful of favorites.
But there are a lot of cookies showing in the browser. So I do not get the info about these in Cookie and I cannot delete them.
