I still get cookies even when I select "never" under preferences, why?

Using Safari, when I select "never" under preferences, I still recieve many cookies. I understand that if I am signed in to yahoo for example, the cookie will be replaced. However, if I am not signed in, but just connected to the net, I still get these cookies.
If anybody can give me a little insight, that would be just great
Thanks

Many sites have come up with all sorts of ways around the cookie blocks in web browsers, tricks such as Flash cookies, "evercookies" and others. Those can be saved on your system even if you have a browser set to supposedly to block cookies. As with spam and junkmail-filter developers, it's sort of a war between the web sites and the people developing cookie blocks/filters. And note that you don't need to be signed into a site to get a cookie; all you need do is load any web page from the site and it may attempt to put one or more cookies on your browser.
You may want to look into a more sophisticated cookie cleaner from a third-party developer. I use Cookies from SweetP Productions and it seems to clean out unwanted cookies quite well, but there are other similar products available.

When I print pictures from my IMAC to my Hp C8180 they are grainy, even when I select the Best Quality- Why can't I get good quality printing from Imac ?

When I print pictures from my IMAC to my Hp C8180 they are grainy, even when I select the Best Quality- Why can't I get good quality printing from Imac ? Use the same printer with a PC and printed the same picture files- they are printed with high quality- Why can't the IMAC do the same?

Does this involve iPhoto for the Mac?
How exactly are you printing these photos?

Why does Safari still accept cookies, even when I put Block Cookies "Always"

Why does Safari still accept cookies, even when I put Block Cookies "Always",? There are always a list of every website with cookies. Is that just a record of what could've been accepted or its a bogus feature that still accepts regardless of what feature is on?

Apple has rolled over users since OS X 10.6.8 when this issue first appeared.
If you want a browser that actually CARES about it's users, then install Firefox, it's the only one that does.

Now getting Google cookies even when "always block" is chosen

Since the last update, I now get Google cookies even when "always block" might be chosen in preferences. I realize I might still get cache under that setting, but I should not get anyone's cookie. I keep fewer than 20 essential cookies and always delete all other cookies I can get from visiting sites. (would you believe one site I visited dumped over 60 cache and cookies on me just by visiting a single home page?)
Is Google doing evil things and bypassing no cookie preferences yet AGAIN?

Safari allows 3rd party cookies and all cookies even when prefernces are set to "never allow" with Mac os 10.6.8

safari ALWAYS allows 3rd party cookies and all cookies even when set to "block cookies: always" and "from 3rd party and advertisers." I have removed the website data, emptied the cache, reset safari, erased the history and it STILL dumps cookies. (For example, if I go to the usgov weather website only I end up with 11 cookies, the top one being "addthis.com" listed as cashed in local storage. But didn't I just empty the cache... multiple times??? Is my Safari application "broken" or "corrupt." Can the application be renewed so that it actually does what it is commanded to do?

Not using any extensions, Andy.
Allowed a guest account and tested that. Lots of cache/cookies showed up for my "guest" that on face value, appeared 3rd party: the familiar "addthis.com" cache and others including a facebook cache and I did not, nor have ever, participated in facebook. But it could be that the "trusted" site my virtual guest visited had a relationship with facebook such that my COMPUTER "friended" facebook even though my guest and I most certainly would have declined the invitation :-) But what I really don't get is why washington post cookies keep showing up every single time. Isn't that the absolute definition of 3rd party cookies?!
forgive my rant.
On the other hand, when I logged out as guest, all data was automatically deleted, and when I relogged in as guest, it appeared that all the data, including cached data, had indeed been deleted. But when I relogged in as myself, the same old garbage reappeared in the cache and cookie bin. The fact is, there appears to be no such thing as truly and completely emptying ones cache, resetting ones browser, or deleting ones cookies. They are here to stay.
(And, oh yes, I have tried logging out, turning off and on the computer right after performing emptying tasks, etc.)

Anyone have the problem I'm having with the Safari collecting cookies even when I'm not on a website? I cleaned everything out and checked several times. Each time cookies were added that I've never seen with my older version of Safari. I have the block third parties and advertisers but I don't think it works. Here's a sample of what is popping up: 247realmedia.com, 2mdn.net addthis.com, admeld.com, adsafeprotected.com, adsonar.com, bit.ly, bluekai.com, bluelithium.com, bluetoad.com bondware.com.......... over 100 things without a clue where they are coming from. Especially since I'm not on any webpage! How do I report a bug? Is there a way to fix this?

Live off the grid and have your freedom or tell everyone your business and let them mold you, there is no "in between", try as you may they just come up with new stuff to watch you, through your web cam, via the hidden microphone and even can turn on some cell phones microphones too.

I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please help.

This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
And here is a great video tutorial on how to use the converter.

Why do I get "Publish Failed" when I select F4V with fixed frame rate?

I have created several projects from scratch in Captivate 5. My publishing functionality seems to be increasingly impaired. I have rebooted and uninstalled + reinstalled Captivate 5.
In the beginning I got this message when I was publishing a specific project with the media option F4V with fixed frame rate, but now I am getting it on all my projects regardless of my publishing selections.
I am running on Windows 7, and I think it is Windows that is suggesting that I 'debug' the program. Clicking 'Debug' takes me to a dialog box where I can choose between Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008, none of which seem to be a good solution.
Here is a print of my publishing options:

Chinmay Baid,
Thank you for your reply - over the past few days I have been able to
narrow the problem down a little more.
When working with Captivate 5, I am able to work with and open any
published file until I turn that file into a Zip file. Upon unZipping,
the file becomes unusable by my computer and by my LMS (Cornerstone).
I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS5 and I am able to run any SWF file
on my machine if the file has never been zipped. I am using Captivate 5
in administrator mode. Somehow, the zip process is making the files
unusable, and my LMS requires that files be zipped before they can be
uploaded.
Thank you for any advice or help you may be able to offer.

Hi,
Can you please give the following details :
Can you please check and tell the Flash player version
(plugin,activex,standalone) installed on your machine?
Also, are you able to play the standalone SWF on your machine?
Did you launch Adobe Captivate 5 in administrator mode?
Above information might be helpful for further investigation.

Prelude will ingest only the files that you have selected (checked the box next to) in the Ingest Dialog. Can you provide more information or screen shots of what you Ingest Dialog looks like BEFORE you ingest and what your Project Panel looks like AFTER you ingest?
