That is the mystery that I cannot fathom. OK, let's make absolutely sure they're really not there in Cookie Manager. If so, I'm out of ideas. 1) When you launch the Cookie Manager, there should be a narrow column on the left with three things at the top: Cookies only Search domains Domain Right? Confirm that it's wide enough and tall enough to see its contents? 2) If this is what you see, then below that there should be a list of domains that have set cookies. Right? Or is the list blank? If the list is blank, CM thinks you have no stored cookies. 3) If the list is not blank, selecting any domain by clicking it should show its cookies in the wider pane on the right. Right? Confirm that it's wide enough and tall enough to see its contents? Note also that domains can sometimes set things on the "Preferences" tab that don't show up on the "Cookies" tab. Typically these are things like browser zoom factor. You might rule that out by pulling down "Preferences" on the left instead of "Cookies," but I really don't think that's your issue. Hi Paul, You hit the nail on the head. Each domain that I clicked on gave a bunch of cookies in the large right pane. That is very helpful, for now I can systematically delete any unwanted cookies. I am still perplexed as to why the cookies list no longer appears as a general list in the right pane , as it used to before getting SM 2.23. Because the newer implementation is far poorer than the old one. Horrible choice and unnecessary. Good idea to move to an sqlite database for management but totally unnecessary to screw the user interface. I cannot imagine anyone advocating that the new UI is better. -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net/ What is a free gift?

I can't remember which Seamonkey level first changed things but I think it was the one immediately after the level which was skipped after that server crash. @Mort - you upgraded recently from an older level? "older" in this case means a level several months old. In order to look at your cookies you need to: - Open the Cookie Manager (or Password Manager etc - it makes no difference). It calls itself the "Data Manager". - Look for the "Data Manager" - left, near the top. - Change the "All data types" button immediately below that text to "Cookies only". Thanks for asking the question - I only worked out how things now work when I started answering the question ;-) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: Remove cookies- no lnger in my cookie manager list

Presumably on two different machines with two different SM installations? I have my setting to accept all cookies. Until a few weeks ago, when I clicked on the cookie manager, a list of on-board cookies appeared,and I could then delete as I wished. Now, the cookie manager list is blank. The only change that I made was to upgrade to SM 2.23. Is there any way to make those on-board cookies appear in my cookie manager, so that I could delete the undesirable ones? If the list is blank, what reason do you have to think they are present? -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.
