FF26 - Facebook-Youtube and cookies
Hi,
setting "delete cache and cookies at FF shoutdown" for many years, until FF25, when re-opening FF I was already logged in in all forums, FB, YT.... fine!
after upgrading to FF26 I discovered a very big issue, EVEN IF I set to NOT delete cache and cookie!!
I have to login into facebook (not a big issue: simply relog in and refresh the tabs, but annoying thing) and into youtube too. This is a big issue, because closing FF26 (only FF26, with new profile too!) all my Personal settings on youtube are lost!! So I open FF, I have to lose one minute to switch to the right country, to switch to the correct player size (expanded window "my default"), to switch to "dont show annotations on the videos".... a very crazy behaviour. closing FF26 > all yt settings are lost!
How to do to get the previous behaviour? i.e. to remain logged in into facebook and, most important, that my YT personal settings are saved as with ff25?
thanks a lot. regards.

Details like websites remembering you (log you in automatically) are stored in a cookie, so you need to keep this cookie.
Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Keep until: I close Firefox
Create a cookie 'allow' exception for cookies that you would like to keep.

Hi cor-el,
thank you for your reply and sorry the delay. its strange but I not receive the mail notification for your answer, with other 3d I become the notifications. sorry. now I leave this tab open in firefox, refreshing the tab from time to time ;)
ok, this evening I will try to put (not only google.com) but youtube.com + facebook.com too in the Allow window of Exceptions.
(its strange that until FF25 --with the "new" yt -google+ service) it was enough to add google.com as cookie exception, remaining correctly logged in after firefox shoutdown, and I did not need to customize again and again all my yt personal settings like login, video window size, Annotations, country preferred...)
I will try your suggestion this evening and then I reply to you. At the moment I warmly thank you.

Thanks in advance for your help!
1) @cor-el: no, I allowed the exceptions cookie: the same behaviour. Login required. All personal setting lost in youtube :(
2) @Waka_Flocka_Flame here the log that you required. thanks in advance for investigating. No idea what went wrong after upgrading to FF26. Surely FB and YT/g+ cookies are involved, no idea what changed during the change ff25 (and all previous version!) > to ff26. thanks for helping. regards.
LOG (I guess that this log is the same as in ff25):

why I dont receive email notifications from your site? in the past I received all your notifications. I did not click on "Stop email Updates".
here the url with login for youtube. In the past I was able to see here my subscriptions.
while on FB, the box "Remain logged in" becomes unflagged at FF startup.
with the exception of the correct Session restore (!) and your forum (!! still logged in after reboot too!!), the behaviour is (fast) the same as when i checked in the past the box "delete browsing history" to let the file sessionstore.js to become smaller in size. its strange.... at least youtube should work well when I re-open FF, because the customization process is too long for me, to be performed every time a open FF. thanks for investigation. should I file a bug on bugzilla?

Firefox has more privacy and anonymity options than other browsers. Check your privacy settings and cookie behavior very closely and make sure you are not using the private browsing function or the do not tracking
Hi, I setted as allowed google.com and youtube.com. even i UNcheck Delete cache and cookie!!! I dont understand because from ff8 until ff25 all went fine , I was always logged in when opening the browser, when I updated to ff26 I need 2 minutes at browser restart to get my personal setting in youtube. Yt (very annoying) and facebook, While this forum is ok, I remain looged in even if I close ff. Very mysterious...
