Yes, downgrading to V9.1.0 has been previously confirmed to resolve a CrossOver Cookies issue with at least one Method.

After this - I started getting the Error 15057 using the AC/StarAlliance method - other methods still work (note the JL method has never worked).
The two issues are unrelated. For the former, is it possible that you installed the KVS Tool into a different CrossOver 'Bottle' and/or different directory or deleted some of its files?

You may wish to make backup copies of the KVS Tool configuration files, in case it happens again:

Please refer CrossOver support to WinInet Error 12057 (ERROR_WINHTTP_SECURE_CERT_REV_FAILED).

It is possible that they use a type of an SSL certificate that CrossOver cannot properly handle, however, it would still be an issue with CrossOver itself.

It is not a user error -- it's a problem with CrossOver/WINE.

There are no plans for a separate Mac version at this time.

You may wish to consider using Parallels Desktop/VMWare Fusion/VirtualBox for Mac, which is the only way to ensure 100% compatibility -- perhaps you have an old PC machine lying around with a Windows 2000/XP license that you could transfer?
