"QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR: DOM Exception 22: An attempt was made to add something to storage that exceeded the quota."

Apparently this is by design. When Safari (OS X or iOS) is in private browsing mode, it appears as though localStorage is available, but trying to call .setItem throws an exception.

suggests to call

localStorage.setItem("storage", ""); 
localStorage.removeItem("storage");
