I'm using Firefox 55 beta (the same happened with older versions) and when I force the multiprocess setting browser.tabs.remote.force-enable to true (I suppose it is disabled by default because of addons) some pages doesn't work saying that I've the cookies disabled. Messages like this: "Cookies are disabled. Cannot access mid-tier with this setting. Please configure your browser to accept cookies."

I tried to start in safe-mode (without addons) but the same happens. With Firefox Nightly (not needed to set browser.tabs.remote.force-enable) it works.

Ideas?

Are you set up to accept 3rd party cookies? Are you Not running Firefox in Privacy Mode?

Tried these tips but it don't work. If these pages work when multiprocess is disabled I suppose these settings are not the problem.
