Can't set ⌘⌥\ as shortcut for "Show Quick Access" in 1Password 8 (changes automatically to ⌘C)

Hello, I just upgraded from 1Password 7 to 8 on my Mac. In 1Password 7, I always used ⌘⌥\ (command + option + ) to open 1Password Mini. I am trying to set the same keyboard shortcut in 1Password 8, but when I select the input box that says "Enter shortcut" for "Show Quick Access", and enter ⌘⌥\, it inexplicably changes automatically to ⌘C (the copy shortcut), and then I can only open Quick Access with ⌘C. Is this a bug? I would really rather not use something other than ⌘⌥\ after years of muscle memory buildup. When I try to enter ⌘⌥\ for any of the other shortcut boxes, it also changes to ⌘C.


1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

    I asked this question too. Answer from 1Password programmers is URGENT!

  • Hi @ebelinski:

    Do you happen to use Alfred? There may be a keyboard shortcut conflict causing this, due to a keyboard shortcut used by Alfred. Let me know!

    Yes. it's the default Universal Actions>Selection Hotkey. When I cleared it, things were good again. Apparently 1P7 didn't check for this.

    macOS needs a way to allow users to create a report of all hotkeys that are registered across all installed applications.

    Hi @Jack.P_1P, yes that's exactly what happened. I removed the Alfred shortcut Universal Actions > Selection Hotkey and I was able to set ⌘⌥\ as a shortcut in 1Password again. Interesting, I had no idea I had this Alfred shortcut.

    Thank you for the help!

  • Hi @ebelinski:

    I knew of this Alfred shortcut, but never used it and forgot what it was. Nice we can get back to 1P7 behavior!
