Software :: Multiple Instances Of Safari With Independent Cookie Databases?
Dec 4, 2008
Is there any way to bring up multiple instances of Safari, each one with a completely independent cookie database? I have several Gmail accounts, and I want to simultaneously log in to all of them in different browser windows. However, since Safari manages a central cookie database, I can't log into one of these Gmail accounts without signing out from another. With separate Safari instances that maintain separate cookie databases, I could simultaneously keep multiple Gmail windows open.

How do you run multiple instances in OS X? Like I'm using the Microsoft Remote Desktop Client and I want to connect to multiple machines at the same time, but I can't. It only opens once. In Windows XP, I can open multiple terminal sessions and multiple notepad windows at the same time.
Is there some key combination + mouse click to start a new instance?

I am used to having graphic files on my desktop, when editing one I would simply right-click and pick "open with" > Photoshop (which is always open in its own desktop in my computer). Now out of the blue, if I do that, it loads another instance of Photoshop, which is certainly what I don't want. I can have 2, 3, 4 Photoshops running at the same time and editing the same image!
I searched but all I could find is people wanting the opposite i.e. opening multiple instances of the same app.

When I delete "Cookies.plist" from User/Library/Cookies and replace it with a copy I made earlier, there are still cookies from recent websites I have visited (even if I quit Safari, empty trash and reboot). I would like to keep a few important cookes (bank brokerage acct, etc) in 'clean' cookie files that I use to replace the ones that get all junked up as I surf around the web. This would be much easier than going through the cookies one at a time and deleting the vast majority of them I don't want. I can't just use the 'delete all' option for the reason stated above. Drives me nuts that everybody wants to track where I've been.Â

Been having a terrible time since I decided to delete all my cookies. When I tried to log back into all my online accounts I found that despite choosing "remember me" or other similar choice, if I logged out of my computer or even if I quit Safari (or Safari quit on me which it does a lot these days) I had to log back in to the online account, as if the identity cookie did not take. Tonight I stumbled onto my Console Log which I found has line after line of the following: 2012-03-05 22:28:34.275 Safari[12743] Could not open cookie file "/Users/ryan/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist" for reading. I clicked on the cookie plist, had to input my log in password and the document that came up showed it had recorded nothing since 2/28 which was the day I deleted the cookies. Why would the cookie file suddenly not open?

A few days ago my email was hacked into which sent a spam email to all my contacts. I changed my password to that account, warned everyone in my contacts, and haven't had a problem with email since. However, I tried to do the 'delete all cookies' again and when I go to safari/preferences/privacy...there is nothing on that screen under that tab. Not even a question mark. I changed my history items to be removed every day from every week but don't think that would be the issue.Â

The issue I've been having is that Safari 5.1.7 (on Windows 7) does not treat cookies as a "Session" cookie if the expiry has not been set. The date mysteriously gets set to Jan 01 2001 .... To reproduce the issue - these are the setups I tried this onÂ
Setup
1) Created a mockup webpage that creates two cookies
COOKIE_WITH_EXPIRY (expiration set to July 01 2013)
COOKIE_WITHOUT_EXPIRY (no expiration set)
2) Hosted this on ApacheÂ
Behaviour on Windows 7 + Safari 5.1.7
COOKIE_WITH_EXPIRY - expiration date shown as July 01 2013
COOKIE_WITHOUT_EXPIRY - expiration date shown as Jan 01 2001Â
Behaviour on Mac OS X 10.7.4 + Safari 5.1.7
[code]...

I've been looking for a nice way to synchronize MySQL databases in a quick and easy way on the Mac, but so far I haven't found any good options.
Since I'm doing my development locally on both my iMac and my MacBook I'd like to be able to sync the site I'm working on with a click of a button.
There are very nice file syncing tools available (I'm currently using Synk Standard), but as far as MySQL syncing (two-way) goes the only one I've found is Navicat.
While Navicat works great they have for some reason not made it possible to access from the command line in the mac version, which means that I can't run the db sync automatically when I run the file sync.
I've tried UI scripting but it just won't work reliably (it clicks in the wrong places all of the time).
So do you know about any good MySQL syncing tools, that sync in both directions and are scriptable?

I just started using iTunes as my music database. For that reason I started to rip all my CDs. Much to my surprise iTunes doesn't find the metadata (for tagging) for a lot of my CDs. I know the data is on discogs and sometimes even on amazon. Is there a way to automatically retrieve the data from those alternative sources. Just like media monkey does? It is really annoying to manually tag all those CDs.

i was wondering if their is any way to use spaces independent of each monitor,
meaning that if space 1 was on monitor 1, and space 2 was on monitor 2, i could switch monitor 2 to space 3 while keeping monitor 1 on space 1.
i feel that this will be a better way to use spaces with multiple monitors, rather than many extended desktops.say you want internet work on one space, then different word documents on 2 other spaces. if you could switch between those documents while keeping the internet on the same space.i know that this can be sort of accomplished be setting apps to appear in every window, but that is a hack and annoying solution.this would be a great addition to 10.3 - more customization!

I am using two different routers to connect to the internet (obviously not at the same time). The thing is, each of them is set up differently and i need to change the settings manually each time i switch. For example, one of them needs me to manually type my ip etc... while the other needs the auto dchp setting. Is there a way to have these settings assigned to each network so i don't have to change them all the time? I'm really surprised that i couldn't find out how to do that in OSX (Leopard 10.5.8), while at the same time i can do that on my ipod touch....

Can I just remove one of the drives and what are the consequences of the removal. I would like to go from a mirrored raid to a carbon copy of the disk which would be updated weekly and use Time Machine in between.
Do I open up a can of worms - my suspicion is that if I want to do that I'll have to reformat the RAID with the loss of all data.
Any workaround short of making a copy, removing the raid and restoring the data?

I want to connect speakers and a headphone to my Imac at the same time.Since there is only one audio output in the imac, I need a audio splitter and I think I need a headphone splitter then?Now the problem is there is no volume control on my headphone and I want it at a different volume then my speakers, otherwise when I turn my speakers on and the headphones are still connected and I turn volume up loud it will ruin my headphone ( and I don't want my software volume almost down and my speaker control way up)Now I found this headphone splitter, but my question is, will the sound quality still be the same because I need the same sound quality.
I know it's a difficult story,

I was wondering if it was possible to tell Safari to look in multiple or different keychains for login credentials. I have x509 certificates that I want to put in a different keychain from the default "login" one, but when I surf to a webpage that requires that certificate, Safari doesn't seem to want to use it.

I know that you can change the iTunes icon in the application's folder, but the real icon still appears in different places in iTunes, for example if you try and delete a song.
Is it possible to change the icon everywhere?

Is it possible to have 2 instances of Itunes with one User?
I am a music producer/composer and am frequently given reference music to work with. Additionally, I often go through several revisions of the tracks I work on. I would like to have two versions of itunes I could open...one with my music collection, and another one with all of my work related tracks in it.

In Terminal, if I go to Preferences->Settings->Advanced, there's a pane that has literally hundreds of instances of setting configurations, numbered sequentially. Apparently, every time I start up Terminal by selecting a [something].terminal file, another one of these setting instances gets created.
Is there any way to prevent these from being created every time I start another Terminal session in this way?

I have been using Safari for a few years now, and the only problem I have with it is that I have never been able to have more than one page open at a time. On any PC, I have been using internet explorer and can have, for instance, an internet radio station playing as welll as being able to surf other pages without losing the radio station. On Safari, as soon as I have the radio station playing, if I then want to look at other pages, the radio station web-page has automatically switched itself off. I am sure it is just something to do with the settings, but I don't seem able to fathom out what settings I need to change.

This is the scenario...Â
1) Safari's window is running on Desktop A.
2) There is another Desktop B.Â
How do I start another Safari window on Desktop B?When I go to Desktop B and start another Safari window, it is opened on the Desktop A. I know I can move it then to Desktop B but that is an extra step.
