Extension has two different prompts

I'm using the 1Password extension in Firefox on two different computers.

On one machine when the prompt comes up to open 1Password it says "Use Account Password"

On the other machine, the prompt says "Use Mac Password..."

As far as I can tell, the extensions have the same version. What's going on here?

Hello @dougmon! 👋

Thanks for the question! It sounds like you might have enabled device password unlock on one of your Macs and not the other, you can find more information here: 


Let me know if I misunderstood the situation.

I should clarify -- both of these machines are running the same OS (Mac OS 15.7.2 Sequoia).

That was the solution, thanks. No idea how that checkbox was checked, but at least it wasn't some totally egregious error on my part. :)

Thanks!
