1Password 8 icon location in mac menu bar not remembered between app startups

Jamsk

Thanks for following up. The issue is indeed still open on our internal tracker for our developers to look into further.

Sadly 1P_Dave this has returned to it's previous bad behaviour and is now stubbournly always moved to the default left hand position on every startup. It seems a recent update broke it all over again. Presumably this is still on the to-do list to figure out a long term fix?

Thanks again for your report. 🙂

Cheers 1P_Dave

Thank you for the reply. I'm happy that things are working for you now when restarting or shutting down your Mac. 🙂

The issue to have 1Password's icon remember its position when the app is manually closed and then reopened remains open and hopefully that will be fixed in the future as well.

1P_Dave - yes, doing that it opens up on the left again afterwards as you say.

However, if I shutdown the computer and then start it up again (without manually quitting 1Password), it survives the restart and comes back in the place I left it. I'm pretty sure that every reboot it used to move to the left again, so - partial inadvertent fix?

The fact it remembers between restarts is all I really need - the manual quit and restart amnesia is annoying, but nowhere near as annoying as every single time you use your computer regression.

Thanks for the reply, I'm still seeing the issue on my Mac and the work item for the issue is still open with our development team. Can you try these steps:

1. Hold down the Command key and move the 1Password 8 menu bar icon over to the right between two other icons.
2. Right-click on the 1Password menu bar icon and click Quit.
3. Re-open 1Password from the Applications folder.

Is the 1Password icon in the position where you left it? Or is it the left-most icon in the menu bar?

Interesting - this appears to have been quietly fixed (nothing obvious in the release notes) in the 8.10.8 (81008045) release (27th June). I hadn't realised at first, because that's what happens when a pain point vanishes! Thank you 1Password and 1P_Dave

Thank you for the feedback. We always appreciate it when folks write in with their suggestions and I'll pass along your request regarding the menu bar icon to the team. 🙂

I went searching for this in the Community forum and found quite a few previous posts. Rather than make another duplicate, I noticed that this seems to be the most recent post about it.

I don't know if it helps if more people report it, but this has been the most frustrating unresolved issue I have with 1Password. It's the only app I have left that doesn't remember its menu bar position. Is there anything we can do to help raise attention to or raise the priority of this issue?
