[CookieSwap] Help

[Steven D Tine]

One other thing I forgot to mention is that you should NOT click on anything within the Yahoo mail interface after you swap and before typing in the main http://mail.yahoo.com URL.  If you do, you will see a Yahoo mail error.  It's not a big deal, but at that point the Yahoo mail interface is confused and you won't be able to see either account until you access that main URL.

Hello!
   It sounds like you might be asking about a feature that CookieSwap doesn't currently support.  At this point (and for the near-to-mid future), you can't have two windows/tabs open at the same time with each one logged into a different account.  Others have asked for this feature (and I'd love it as well), but I am no where near solving the technical complexities involved with that idea.  

  At this point, CookieSwap can enable you to read mail in one Yahoo account, and then easily swap to another Yahoo account without needing to log out and in as the new user.  Here are the basic steps:
Assuming your current CookieSwap profile is Profile1
Type in http://mail.yahoo.com and login.  Be sure to click the check box to have Yahoo "Remember my ID on this computer".Switch your CookieSwap profile (right-click on the "CookieSwap" item in status bar) to 'Profile2' Type in http://mail.yahoo.com again (or use a bookmark...notice Yahoo doesn't recognize you and asks for a
login?) and login with the second user.Now, if you switch CookieSwap profile back to 'Profile1' and type
in http://mail.yahoo.com again (or use a bookmark), you should see the inbox for the first Yahoo
user. Switch CookieSwap profile to 'Profile2' and access http://mail.yahoo.com, you should see the inbox for the second Yahoo user.So, as you can see, CookieSwap allows you to "swap" between the two accounts, but doesn't let you access both accounts at the exact same time.

Does that help?
