Many thanks!

• Clicked on [Activate]
• Opened with same data which was previously rejected.
• Clicked on [Change License]
• It took me back to the window I had previously been dealing with and clicked on [Register] ....and got Thanks!
• Now, I see [Change License]. Do I click on that???

Hang on...let me go back to your email

If you would like to do so, I would be ok with doing a zoom session and letting you view what I am doing. I do this weekly with seniors I help with Apple device problems.

@SweetP
Which is why, I presume, you sent me the download link but you can see that didn't work either.

@SweetP
• Got your email
• Clicked on Download and got the Cookie.dmg
• Quit Cookies which was running
• Installed the downloaded version by [Replace] the current version on my Mac
• Launched Cookie
• Went to [Purchase Cookie] and it opened to [Whoops! We all make mistakes] once again
• Clicked on [Change License]
• Deleted the License that was entered there and cut and pasted the license you emailed me [Register] and again...[Whoops! We all make mistakes]
• BTW, the license in your email was exactly the same as the license I had saved and using to upgrade to v 7.

• Restarted the computer.
• Opened Cookie, then Cookie Preferences, then License
• Clicked on [Restore Purchases]
• Clicked on [Sign in with your Apple ID]
• About 2 seconds later, I am back at [Sign in with your Apple ID]
• Launched App Store where I was already logged in and logged out.
• Signed into the App Store again using the same Apple ID I used when Cookie requested [Sign in with your Apple ID] and successfully signed in.
• Went back to [Restore Purchases] again, and again I am back at [Sign in with your Apple ID]
• Deleted the Cookie.app
• Restarted in Safe Mode
• Did a reinstall of Cookie
• Opened Cookie, then Cookie Preferences, BUT THIS TIME I clicked on Purchase Cookie, NOT Preferences
• I entered my case sensitive User Name and my Cookie 7 license (using cut and paste so I would not make any mistakes), clicked on Register and got [Whoops! We all make mistakes]
• Did a normal, not Safe Mode restart
• Launched Cookie.app, went to Purchase Cookie and got completely different results from those I got when I started in Safe Mode. I.e., there is no choice to enter my User Name and my Cookie 7 license; I am back to the "circular hell" of [Restore Purchases] again.
• Quit and relaunched Cookie. It opened to the Websites/Unwanted Data/Removal Options/etc. window with [Purchase Cookie] in the upper right hand corner.
• Clicked on [Purchase Cookie] and once again got the [Whoops! We all make mistakes]
• Clicked on [Change License] and entered the correct name and license for Cookie 7 [Register] .
• Guess what? [Whoops! We all make mistakes] yet again.

Another hour of my life wasted. Any more suggestions as to how to get Cookie 7 installed and working on that 2015 MB Pro where Cookies 6 was humming along nicely?

At home I have a 2002 iMac, a 2019 and a 2015 MB Pro.
I have been a Cookie user since 2017 and have run Cookies on all three machines.
Recently, on my iMac, I paid for the update to Cookies 7 and it has been running just fine on that computer.
When I went to the SweetP site on my 2015 MB Pro, and updated to v. 7, when I go to Cookie > Preferences > License, if I click on [Restore Purchase] I am asked to sign in with my Apple ID, which I do and following which nothing happens.
Would appreciate some guidance.

I have been a Cookie user since Oct 5, 2019 and I don't rate the courtesy of a reply from the management?

What's the deal on updating from v 5 to v 6?
Is there a charge for updating from v 5 to v6 and if so how much?
Do you get a break if you are updating from v 5 and not a new purchaser of Cookie 6?
Thanks.

Used the computer for about an hour, put it to sleep, and about 10' later it awoke with the Cookie <Allow> window foremost and once again, had to click through over a dozen <Allow> windows.
In total frustration I used App Cleaner to delete Cookie, then used FindAnyFile to find any remnants and deleted them too.
Just downloaded the 14-day trial from the SweetPProducts.com site.
I'll report back on what happens.

17 hours and no response.
When I woke the iMac this morning, I once again had to hit the <Alllow> button for Cookie roughly two dozen times before Cookie finally settled down.

Russell, what would be your reaction to using FindAnyFile to locate and delete all traces of Cookie, except Cookie's preferences file, then d/l and install a fresh copy of Cookie?

I have not been running Safari in private browsing mode, but do occasionally run Firefox and the newly downloaded Iridium browsers in privacy mode.

I just used all three browsers to visit a half dozen sites in non-privacy mode.
I used FindMyFile to search for Cookies.binaryCookies and it found 24 such files on my iMac. Here's a link to a screenshot of those results:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/6hkc28e64y8nejo/cookies .jpg?dl=0
I just opened Cookie from the Applications folder and got the <cookie needs to access/Allow> window.
After clicking on two of these, the main Cookie window opened.
Got the Allow window again, four times, then the Cookie main window opened.
As soon as I chose Remove Tracking cookies from the main Cookie window, again, got the small Allow window again and had to click on it 4 times and finally the tracking cookies were removed .
When I went to Dropbox to add the screenshot I noted above, once again, the Allow window appeared.
I do use freemacsoft's AppCleaner when I delete Applications, but I have never used it to delete Cookie.

On my 2015 iMac running Catalina 10.15.2 and Cookie v6.0.9, Cookie is driving me crazy.
This morning, when I woke my iMac, I got the window noting at the top "Cookie needs to access this path to continue. Click allow to continue."
I clicked <Allow> over 20 times (I counted) and finally had to open Activity Monitor to force quit it.
I tried to open Cookie again; again same thing. Had to use AM to force quit.
Did a restart; exactly the same behavior.
BTW when the "Cookie needs to access this path to continue. Click allow to continue." window is active, I cannot use anything else on the iMac. I have to force quit Cookie in order to get any work done.
The only thing I have added to the iMac recently is the browser Iridium.
What do folks suggest?

I would very much like to see the developer respond to this question.

I had a devil of a time updating to Mojave, had to (on the advice of 3 Apple engineers) give up on using Migration Assistant to move file/folders/settings from High Sierra and had to do it by hand, thus losing all the preferences I had set up for Cookie and am having to learn the ins and outs of Cookie all over again.
