4 years agoI'm sorry for the delay in responding, I've merged your two threads together to avoid having the same conversation occur in two different places. I'll respond to each of your questions below:
I use Safari as my main browser and all seems ok. But when I need to use Firefox or Chrome there is no icon for 1P8 in that browser's tool bar - it only appears in the MacBook tool bar and when I use that to login to a site it reverts to Safari. The only way I have been able to use another browser is to just copy and paste my password, etc from my list in 1P8 (the previous 1P7 had an icon in the browser tool bar so it worked there). Can't figure out how to get 1P8 to work in the other browsers.
Please make sure that you've installed and enabled 1Password in the browser in each of the browsers that you use: Get started with 1Password in your browser
Where is the password generator? I can not find it.
You can find the password generator by clicking on the key icon in the 1Password pop-up that appears when you click on the 1Password icon in your browser: https://support.1password.com/getting-started-browser/#create-a-custom-password
The blog or summary of features states that you can summon 1P8 anywhere with the shortcut command\ but that does not seem to work.
I'm sorry to hear that Universal Autofill is not working, can you try to open Quick Access using the following shortcut: shift-command-spacebar. Does that work?
Is 1P8 only on the mac? My iPhone and iPad seem are on 1P7 version 7.9.6
1Password 8 is now available for the Mac, Windows, and Linux. We don't yet have a release date for when the finished and final version of 1Password 8 for the iPhone and iPad will be released but we're making it a priority. In the meantime, you can continue to use 1Password 7 on your iPhone/iPad while using 1Password 8 on your Mac, you won't run into any issues.
I look forward to hearing from you. 😊
