Session expired for tab
After successfully using the browser extension for Safari to log into a site, there will be a lingering pop-up from 1Password with the message "Session expired for tab". I can't find this error messa...
The solution to this problem is to completely uninstall and reinstall 1Password. I performed these steps on both machines with this issue, problem resolved.

ModeratorHi shoemaker, welcome to the Community!
To help me better understand the situation, could you answer the questions below for me:
- What exact steps do you take when using 1Password to fill your information?
- Are you seeing this behaviour on all websites, or only on specific ones? If it is a specific one could you share an example URL with me?
- Do you use the 1Password desktop app alongside the Safari extension, and if so, is the app running (either open or in the background) and unlocked at the time this happens?
Looking forward to hearing from you!

I typically use the keyboard shortcut to populate credentials.

The behavior is not consistent. It seemed like every site before I followed the steps to reinstall the extension. But seems infrequent now. I just got it logging into statefarm.com.

The 1Password app is always running on my desktop, the menu bar icon is visible and 1Password is an app that starts on login to my Mac.
