Thanks Steve! I know this is over a year old but it works beautifully with 2.2.1 firmware. Damn it was starting to annoy me and that Safari Cookie Fix in Cydia kept coming up half-installed (it’s a known issue) but this is one less package to install. Bookmarked!

Thanks!

This works on 2.0.1 also…I had the same problem!

I found another solution that should be suitable to people not having jailbreaked iPhone, and therefore not able to ssh into it.

The culprit file is corrrupted into your backup, so no matter how many time you restore your iphone, it will be restored as-is, and wrong.

The solution is to delete it from your iphone backup before restoring :

Open a terminal window, and type :

grep â€œLibrary/Cookies/Cookies.plistâ€? ~/Library/Application\ Support/MobileSync/Backup/*/*

If you have one backup, as most people do, you should have only one line as a result. delete this file from the mentioned directory, and restore again.

Thank you so much! This was so damn annoying! I was really hoping I wouldn’t have to resort to another wipe!

is it likely that this is also the case for the cache? or is that working fine?

OWA doesn’t work like Facebook or other sites. Even in Firefox on a laptop, it never remembers it.

I’m having tough time with setting the Cookie of an Exchange OWA web page to remember my password, it does remember my email but not my password :-(

I did exactly as you without succcess… any thoughts?
