Security manager cant handle more than one connection etc

I have two connection's defined in my Database Explorer. I assumed that when I invoke the Security Manager it will be for the selected connection, but its always the top connection. I also tried to open "properties" of a connection or a table. Nothing happens. However when I right-click on any table I can select "edit privileges".

You might be using an old version of dbForge Studio for MySQL. We recommend you to upgrade it to the latest one which us v5.0.63:

You're probably invoking the 'Properties' window that only reflects properties of currently selected item in Database Explorer or Table Editor. All properties in the grid are read-only.

Instead of this, select the 'Modify Connection' item from the popup menu for the connection in Database Explorer. The 'Database Connection Properties' dialog box, where you can setup or change database connection parameters, will open.
