Can someone PLEASE tell me how to allow cookies on Safari on my MacBook Pro?


I've gone to Settings and "Block Cookies" isn't enabled so I don't know what else to do?


I assess shopping websites for work and it's *so* frustrating when I get the "Allow cookies?" on every single website I open, every single time!


MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.2

You're not doing anything wrong: Enable cookies in Safari on Mac - Apple Support


If a website alleges you need to enable cookies, and you did not disable them, then the website is mistakenly identifying that as the cause while the actual reason is something else. In that case If Safari on Mac doesn't open a webpage or isn’t working as expected - Apple Support may be applicable.


Be sure to methodically follow all those steps, even those that may appear to be inapplicable or trivial. For example you wrote that you need to assess shopping websites for work. A work-related VPN, remote device management (MDM), or something else particular to a network managed by a corporation or institution can prevent all sorts of websites from working.
