Why won't the "block cookies and other website data" setting work on Safari 7.0.2?

Why doesn't the "block cookies and other website data" setting on Safari 7.0.2 work?  Everytime I try this setting, I still get cookies and other data that needs to be deleted from my computer.

This has been the case for sometime.
There is no effective way to block these cookies.
Try this, may help.
Safari > Preferences > Security > Cookies and other website data:
Press "Remove All Other Website Data:'
Do this twice.
Select "Reset Safari" from Safari drop down menu.
Select only "Reset all website data".
Click "Reset".

  • In Safari menu, under preferences, under privacy, in the window appears the statement: cookies and other website data. A multitude of names appear in the info window, some with extensions, some without, some in cache, some in storage. I don't want 'em.

    I don't want all those cookies being stored either in cache or storage, as reported in Safari menu under Preferences, under Privacy. I tell the system to delete them and they come right back. I want to know how to keep those things from peeking in on my traffic. Thank you.

    Sorry if this comes to late, I just now came across this thread.  I have rtorrent and rutorrent sunning successfully on my x64 Arch Linux install.
    Try putting the "SCGIMount /RPC2 127.0.0.1:5000" line in your httpd.conf file right after the LoadModule lines (it's line 124 for me).
    I seem to recall it not working when I put it at the end of the file.
    Best of Luck!

  • How do I get rid of 97] in Cookies and other website data

    When I open Preferences/Privacy and select "Details" under "Cookies and other website data" the first entry which pops up is
                 97] plug-ins
    If I highlight this entry and click remove, It is removed for perhaps 10 seconds, and then re-appears in the list.
    1- What is this?
    2- How do I get rid of it?
    This is clearly a prvacy issue, or Apple would not be listing it in this listing with the associated warning.

    If you still can't delete it, and you still want to, proceed as follows.
    Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now. If you skip this step, no one but you will be responsible for the consequences.
    Quit Safari if it’s running.
    Step 1
    Select /Applications/Safari in the Finder and open the Info window. There’s a checkbox in that window labeled “Open in 32-bit mode.” If that box is checked, uncheck it. Close the window.
    Hold down the option key and select Go > Library from the Finder menu bar (Lion) or open the Library subfolder of your home folder (pre-Lion). Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Caches/Metadata/Safari
    Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
    Leave the Finder window open. Try Safari again.
    Step 2
    If it still doesn’t work right, quit, go back to the Finder, and move the following file to the Desktop:
    Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    Then delete the following items (some may not exist):
    Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
    Cookies/Cookies.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
    PubSub/Database
    Safari
    Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. Select File > Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the old bookmarks file.
    Note: This step will remove your Safari Extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to restore them, do so one at a time, testing after each to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
    If you don’t like the results of step 2, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place. You don’t need to restore the files you deleted in step 1.
    Ok... completed step1 with no change.
    went on to "part of "step 2...
    I kept the Bookmarks.plist, but then deleted the assortment of safari related Caches and Cookies
    Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
    Cookies/Cookies.plist
    (I found several entries in Cache, but forgot to write down which ones I deleted ... sorry.)
    did not delete any of the preferences or the last two entries in your list above.
    Tried again and "the perp" was still there. "Remove all" on the Details tab did not change things...
    However, there were now only 2 entries -- the 97] AND my bank's entry (Chase)!
    Going back to the main privacy tab and clicking "Remove all Website Data" this time DID remove the last two entries.
    =====
    Now when I open the details tab, (I run my own webserver as my home page) Safari showed ONLY the cache entry for my server, no cookies.
    However, I then noticed something quite intersting.
    I left the details tab open and pulled to the side (the joy of having a 27 inch iMac) and naviaged to Apple.com
    and then to support and then logged in to here.
    As I was doing this. the Details window first showed, "Apple.com" .. Cache, Cookies, Local Storage
    but then virtually immediately poped up entries:
    doubleclick.net ... Cache
    edgekey.net ... Cache
    google.com ... Cookies
    Very interesting, both from the point of view that "details" was showing me what was happening in "real time."
    And the fact that, even with zero external ads, the web site, Apple.com, was inserting entries in the cache for doubleclick.net and edgekey.net. I can "almost" understand the "google.com" cookie, ecept for the fact that the search engine selected in the tool bar is "bing."... as I said "interesting."
    With this new "insight" on the Details screen, It may be possible to determine WHERE this 97] actually came from. However, I would still like an explanation of what it actually is.... since the "]" (right square bracket) character is evidently a "special character" for search engines -- google, Yaho and Bing all treat it the same way -- they ignor it.... even when the entire 3 character string is quoted -- "97]" -- the pages returned all are for entries with only 97 in them.

  • Preferences Privacy Cookies and other website data

    I'm having a problem. The number of "websites stored cookies or other data" keeps jumping around! First it shows 116, then jumps to 24, then jumps to 116, 117, then 15, then back to 24 again. Other numbers have been shown in a cycle, too. When I click on "details" the lists jumps around too. First listing many sites, then a few, then many again and so on. This is continuous. I tried "Remove All Website Data", but no luck. Any ideas? I've never had this problem before.

    This seems to be caused by having pages making frequent updates to their cookies or local storage. You can tell the domain of the pages that are doing so by opening the Library/Safari/Local Storage folder in your home folder in Finder and sorting by date modified. In my case, both Facebook and Twitter pages were updating quite often. Once I closed them, the number settled down -- it continued to move up and down fairly frequently (presumably because some open pages were still adding/deleting cookies or local storage), but never reset or showed a much lower number.

  • I have a second generation ipod touch, why won't the ios 5 and ios 4.3 work on ipod touch 2g?

    I have a second generation ipod touch, why won't the ios 5 and ios 4.3 work on ipod touch 2g?

    Wel your "answer" provides not only a bad comparison, but is disingenuous at its heart!
    Apple sold a product (8GB iPod Touch) that one could have assumed to be 3rd generation at the time of purchase (because that was what all the other models of iPod Touch were at the time). Then when ios 4.3 came out, we who purchased one of these units found out that the 8GB Touch was really a 2nd generation model, and it would not ever be updated beyond ios 4.2.1 (8C148). Since the version (4.2.1) is BUGGY, it would be in the best interest of Apple to at least provide a bug-fix update release for these units. It is not like we are asking for all the new features of ios 4.3, just fix the BUGS, please, Apple!

  • Facebook, hotmail and other sites are not working on safari?

    If you look at the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads. It appears you are not the only two having this problem.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Why won't the user name and password for my podcast save when I click "Remember this password?"

    I have to enter the podcast log in information every time I update my podcast even though I click the box to remember the password.

    You should have received a small booklet with the router that contains that information. however, when the Verizon tech installs the router, he/she usually logs into the router during the installation, and the router requires the password to be changed at first login. So there are two answers:
    1) If nobody has logged into the router, or you have used the reset button to reset the router, the login should be : admin and password
    2) If the tech did log in, they normally change the password to: password1
    If you can't get in then reset the router using the reset button and use option 1.
    Note: Actiontec routers include a "security" feature (a big joke!!!) that when you type the password two or three bullets appear for each key pressed. Just ignore that crap and type the password the way it should be.

  • Why won't the App, iTunes and iBooks stores load on iPad?

    Every time I tap on iTunes, App and iBooks stores on my iPad, it hows all the spaces where images should be but the spinning grey icon dosnt go away and just does that (see below). I've tried quitting the app in multitasking and doing a full restore, nothing works.

    I wish I had something else that you could try, but the only thing that I can suggest now is to go throught this website suggestions ... Can't connect to the iTunes Store.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    This is the very basic stuff in the first article, but it can link you to a bunch of other websites that get much deeper into the issue. It seems like you have to have certain ports open in order to access the Apple Stores. I'm not sure if that's your issue or not, but there is a plethora of things to read and try.
    Maybe somebody else has another idea.

  • Why won't the mail app and the gmail website sync?

    If i delete sometihg in mail it will not dlete on gmail . How do i get it to sync

    Sorry about the lack of information.
    Yep, mailbox behaviour is sent to "store sent messages on the server".  This is happening, though, other primary IMAP accounts.  And yes, it's been since Mountain Lion.  Sometimes the messages show under the account, other times they don't.  There is no sense to the randomness of it.  Is there a way to "reset" all of my mail accounts without losing all of my stored mail?

  • How are valid-from and valid-to dates set in TRPROD table in APO during CIF

    First question:
    How are the valid-from and valid-to dates set in the APO TRPROD table?
    For example, if I activate a transportaion lane model on March 1, 2008, will the valid-from and valid-to in TRPROD be 20080301 and 99991231?
    Or are these dates defined in the model itself? Or in APO config somewhere?
    Next question:
    Suppose I rerun the model on May 1 2008 to add some records that didn't get added in the March 1 run.  But suppose I want to back-date the valid-from of these records to March 1, rather than use May 1 as the valid-from.
    Can this be done?
    Or is the valid-from always the date of the CIF that creates the TRPROD records?
    Please advise. 
    Thanks

    Hi Srinivas -
    Thanks very much for replying so quickly, but your response didn't answer the questions.
    Let me try again.
    1)
    If I run a CIF on March 1 2008 based on a model that will generate APO TLane data, will the TRPROD valid-from and valid-to get automatically set to 20080301 and 99991231?
    2) 
    If the answer to this question is yes, then is it also true that if I run a new set of records in on May 1, 2008 (no duplications with the original set), then the valid-from and valid-to dates will be 20080501 and 99991231.
    3)
    But if (1) and (2) are both true (if you answer them both "yes", then suppose I want the May 1 record set to have valid-from dates of March 1 (for example, if the May 1 record set includes records that didn't get included in the March 1 set due to an error in selection criteria).  How do I get the valid-from to be March 1 when I run the CIF on May 1?
    On the other hand, if (1) and (2) are NOT true, then how DO the two dates get set during a CIF ????
    Thanks

    Doesn't any bring up the fact that Apple has so many customers with problems that the refuse to help unless you pay them cash? They update you and screw you over and then offer no useful troubleshooting scenarioius to help their millions of customers. It is because they want millions of our dollars. I hate Apple.
