Hello vlherring​! 👋

I'm sorry that Touch ID isn't working to unlock 1Password for Safari on your Mac. As a first step, can you confirm that you're still able to unlock the Mac itself using your fingerprint? If you can then try these steps for 1Password in Safari: 

  1. Open and unlock the 1Password for Mac desktop app.
  2. Click on 1Password next to the  in the menu bar.
  3. Click Settings.
  4. Click Browser.
  5. Make sure that "Connect with 1Password in the browser" is on.
  6. Open Safari.
  7. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Settings.
  8. Turn "Integrate this extension with the 1Password desktop app" off and then back on.


If that still doesn't work then do you see a green dot in the browser settings page under General? Or a different coloured dot and an error message? I look forward to hearing from you.
