DAVID210 I've had major issues running Safari Cookies on my MacBook Pro intel on 10.5.8 - thanks to a comment from the developer I tried getting rid of SafariStand 4.0L168 and I finally got SC back! Still don't understand why the latest version of SafariStand for Leopard didn't play nice with SC on Intel but worked fine on my 10.5.8 PPC machine? Doesnt really matter in the end - Safari Cookies is much more valuable. Thanks for a great cookie manager!

LOUNGE DELUXE Again when updating from within Safari I get this error message: "Update Error! An error occurred while extracting the archive. Please try again later.". I think SafariCookies is a terrific 'plugin' and I can't imagine my computer life without it, and I don't mind downloading the update and installing it manually, but what's the point of an integrated update function when it doesn't work? SC is freeware so I'm not blaming the dev in any way, I'm just expressing my wish for a fix of this error.

BOLLYWOOD which version were you updating from?
(Version 1.3.1) | |
| Oct 31 2009 |
LOUNGE DELUXE Version 1.2 (I send you an email about it on October 18), but it happened again when going from 1.3 to 1.3.1.

LOUNGE DELUXE After restarting Safari in 64-bit mode instead of 32-bit SC updates fine within Safari, so problem solved. Would be a good thing if the dev makes a note of this on his website and the info section on MU.

PAULMREIZ Just a mere technicality, but isn't the statement "Cookie manager integrates directly into Safari" misleading now that SIMBL is a requirement? Safari Cookies used to be my cookie manager of choice before Snow Leopard and the SIMBL requirement.

BOLLYWOOD Apart from building a background process that sits around waiting for Safari to open. SIMBL is the only way to get this working. in fact SIMBL is already doing exactly that..... Glims, and 1Password have their own background processes running. So the more Plugins you have installed, the more background daemons your computer is going to need. Seeing as how, a lot of other plugins are utilising the 'sniffing' SIMBL is doing, it makes sense to use it. And, to be honest, i would like to have as few processes running as possible.

don't blame the devs..... complain to Apple, and ask for an officially supported plugin architecture!

PAULMREIZ Not pointing blame or even questioning your logic and use of SIMBL. Just pointing out that this is not a "direct" Safari cookie manager any more, and that you should consider changing the description.

BOLLYWOOD what other plugins do you have installed? SafariStand, PithHelmet.....etc....
(Version 1.3) | |

RORO01 The only SIMBL plugin I have is SafariSource. I also have Glims,

BOLLYWOOD Someone emailed me a while back, and we discovered SafariSource to be the culprit.... I guess you'll have to choose which is more useful, till SafariSource is updated.

RORO01 That's correct. Many thanks!

DAVID210 I'm not using SafariSource. Runs fine on PPC with 10.5.8 but crashes Safari on Intel with 10.5.8. Running Glims on both machines as well.

BOLLYWOOD do you have Logitech Control Center installed?
(Version 1.3.1) | |
| Oct 29 2009 |
DAVID210 Logitech Control Center is not installed. But SafariStand is installed (also on PPC, but works fine there), as well as Thurly.

BOLLYWOOD Im not 100% sure, but I think there may be a conflict with SafariStand, do you have the latest version of SafariStand?
(Version 1.3.1) | |
| Oct 29 2009 |
DAVID210 Running SafariStand 4.0L168 on both MacBook Pro Intel 10.5.8 and on PPC G5 10.5.8 - no problem with Safari Cookies on PPC, but big issues on Intel.

ADRIANBOLT It lists two cookies for fsbsoftware.com. The oddity is that I can clear the cache, history, and cookies, quit Safari and restart, but without visiting any websites the fsbsoftware.com cookies reappear. They're more pernicious than google's! I've mentioned it to sweetproductions, but any ideas and comments would be gratefully received.

BOLLYWOOD you probably have SafariBlock installed, and it sounds as though its phoning home, to check for updates.
(Version 1.2.1) | |
| Oct 21 2009 |
ADRIANBOLT You're right. Thanks! SafariBlock is at http://code.google.com/p/safariblock/ which doesn't mention fsbsoftware.com. And fsbsoftware.com makes no mention of SafariBlock so I hadn't connected the two. Thanks again for solving the puzzle.

MACHEADCASE Thanks for your reply. I solved it! I found on your web site an older version, the one I used before installing the update, Safari Cookies 0.8.2 and made sure it was installed in the InputManagers folder. I dragged to the trash the newer Safari Cookies that was in /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins to the trash, restarted Safari and it showed up. *Phew!* I had tried this before and still don't know why this time it worked. And the other plugins I use are Saft, GlimmerBlocker, Glims, 1Password, Safari AdBlock and SafariBlock. As you can see, I hate ads. :-D So I'm only going to upgrade Safari Cookies once I install Snow Leopard, I'm not touching this one before that.

MACHEADCASE Forgot to add in my previous post/comment: the SIMBL version I am using is v0.8.2 (Leopard). Thank you for any help on this matter.

MACHEADCASE So I updated to Safari Cookies 1.2.1 (previous install was 0.82, I think) because I got a notification from inside Safari that there was a newer version. I got an error from the installer so I decided to quit Safari and install it manually. I used the uninstaller and then before updating, I read the "Read Me" saying I needed to install the 64-bit SIMBL version (latest version I saw was SIMBL-0.9.7a on the developer's web site) but this version is for Snow Leopard only. I tried installing Safari Cookies 1.2.1 anyway since it comes with the Leopard version of SIMBL, 0.8.2 as well as the SIMBL 0.9.6c Snow Leopard version. But now it doesn't work anymore. Safari does not see it. I looked in the Input Managers folder (path: /Library/InputManagers) and there is nothing there except the SIMBL folder and the other Safari plugins I use like 1Password, Glims, etc. However Safari Cookies 1.2.1 does show up in /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins just like SafariStand but neither work, they don't appear when I use Safari like they never were installed. I uninstalled and reinstalled Safari Cookies 3 times to no avail. I can't seem to backtrack and reinstall the previous Safari Cookies version either. I really liked this plugin and wish to find a way to get it to work again, this is very frustrating. Just to make sure, I even restarted my iMac but still no joy. Is there anything else I can try to get it back? iMac Intel Core 2 Duo (early 2009) 3.06 GHz Safari 4.0.3 (5531.9)

LOUNGE DELUXE I also got an error when updating from within Safari ("an error occurred when extracting the archive"). I send the dev an email about it with a screenshot of the error message, and hopefully he'll have the time to fix this issue. But at the moment it's simply not working.

FRACER Safari Cookies 1.2 works not on PPC 10.5.8 and SIMBL 0.8 - crashs Safari. Same issue with version 1.13. Maybe only for Intel Macs? Back to Safari Cookies 0.8.
