1Password does not work with Safari profiles

The app is pretty much unusable with Safari if you use profiles. Sometimes it won't unlock, sometimes it will only unlock with the icon in the browser bar, sometimes it will unlock but nothing will fill. It may work in one profile, and fail in others. Much of the time I have to open the 1Password app, search it for the site I'm on, and copy and paste the password into Safari. It works fine in other browsers.


1Password Version: 8.10.27
Extension Version: 2.21.0
OS Version: macOS 14.4
Browser: Safari

Hello folks! 

Our developers have released improvements to how 1Password communicates with Safari profiles in the latest versions of 1Password for Safari. Please make sure that you're running the latest versions of both macOS and 1Password for Safari: 


If you're still seeing issues with the latest version of 1Password for Safari and macOS then I'd like to ask you to create a new diagnostics report from 1Password in your browser so that the team can identify whether you're running into a known issue and help further:

Send a diagnostics report (browser extension)

Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support@1password.com

With your email please include:

Debating dropping 1Password and switching to iCloud password store. This issue has been going on for too long and the copy/paste is getting old fast.

Or instead of
Clicked on the icon by the entry field - nothing.

I sometimes get
Oops something went wrong with loading

Again this is EASILY repeatable - that is it happens every time you let the screensaver sleep

Just for completeness ticket #XIJ-47266-571

Response included

Based on the additional details you shared, I can confirm that you're running into a known issue we're tracking with 1Password for Safari on multiple profiles. I've personally ran into this issue myself and I completely understand any frustration this may have caused. I can assure you our developers are investigating the issue and actively working with our friends at Apple to come to a resolution. We hope to release a fix in a future update as soon as possible.

In the meantime, I can suggest a temporary workaround to either restarting Safari or toggle 1Password for Safari off and on again to re-establish a connection with the 1Password desktop app.

Another workaround is to run 1Password for Safari independently from the 1Password desktop app. However, you wouldn't be able to unlock the extension through the 1Password desktop app/Touch ID feature and you will need to unlock it separately.

However I do get the worry that is my data now only in the cloud or is it still in a database on my computer that I can backup.

And obviously if you are offline this workaround won't work
