Yubikey & Mac App
I can set up my Yubikey for 2FA in 1P via my browser. However, when I try to log into my Mac App and it asks for the key, it does not work BUT that same key works with my iPhone. I tried on another Mac and same issue. Am I missing something?

Thanks for the reply. Our developers are currently investigating an issue where YubiKeys enrolled using Firefox may not work with 1Password for Mac. As a troubleshooting test, would you be able to remove the YubiKey from your 1Password account and then register it using a different browser like Chrome, Brave, or Safari? Once you've done that, try to authenticate your 1Password account in the desktop app again.
You can find our guide here: Use your security key as a second factor for your 1Password account

Hi. Thanks for reaching out. My answers:
No problem using YK on other sites.
Yes, I used Firefox. I just switched to FF a few weeks ago when Brave was getting sluggish.

Hello tokyotony! 👋
I'm sorry that you're running into issues using your YubiKey to add your account to 1Password. So that I can better understand the situation can you please tell me the following:
- Are you able to use the YubiKey with other websites and apps on your Mac (not your iPhone)?
- Did you register the YubiKey with 1Password using the Firefox browser? Or a different browser?
I look forward to hearing from you.
