1Password for Safari Will Not Unlock Unless I Connect 1Password / 1Password for Safari
I have a 2023 MBP M3 Max running macOS 15.2 with 1Password and 1Password for Safari. I have 1Password and 1Password for Safari setup indecently. I can successfully unlock 1Password for Safari using either the Password or my Apple Watch! The good news!
I have a 2024 MBP M4 Max running macOS 15.2 with 1Password and 1Password for Safari. I have 1Password and 1Password for Safari setup indecently. I can not unlock 1Password for Safari with either the password of Touch ID. The bad news!
The 2023 MBP M3 Max and the 2024 MBP M4 Max configurations of 1Password and 1Password for Safari are identical! What gives?
Would like / need to be bale to run 1Password and 1Password for Safari independently on my 2024 MBP M4 Max.
Looking for some help!

I think I discovered the problem and things seem to be working.
In the below image there is an option in the 1Password desktop app that reads " Connect with 1Password in the browser".
It would be helpful were someone to explain the need / use case for this option as toggling it off makes 1Password for Safari inoperable. It is a though the desktop app is the data base / engine and without it the 1Password for Safari Extension cannot access any data (i.e., it has nothing to do with synchronizing unlocking).
Worth noting, it appears to have a different impact that the 1Password for Safari Extension setting of "Integrate this extension with teh 1Password desktop app". It is a though this is related to synchronizing unlocking (i.e., it has nothing to do with data access).
Perhaps someone from 1P can chime in?
Thank you.
