Use Suggested Password

This is resolved. Setting can be altered within Safari's extension preferences that 1Password offers.

I'm glad you're all sorted! From the 1Password in your browser extension window, you can choose your 'suggested password' preferences from the Password Generator. Enabling 'Use as default for suggestions' will remember these preferences when suggesting future passwords.

I'm confused. I want to turn off the suggested password feature altogether. How can I do this?

Hi @trixiesirisheyes - Thanks for following up here 🙂

The 'Use Suggested Password' prompt will show automatically based on a setting in 1Password in the browser (browser extension). Here is how to disable that:

1. Right click on the 1Password icon in the browser's toolbar and select 'Settings'.
2. Scroll down to the Autofill section.
3. Ensure 'Show autofill menu on field focus' is toggled Off.

Let us know how you get on!

I'm still not understanding. I'm using 1password in Safari and here is what I get when I click on the 'autofill' field:

Hi @mike3825,

Do you see a small 1Password icon in your browser toolbar?

It looks like you are currently in the settings for Safari. In order to follow Paul's steps you will need to right click the 1Password icon next to the address bar and choose Settings.

I hope this helps!

Hi Steph,

This is what I see on my address bar:

When I click on the icon to the left of the address bar I get this:

When I click on manage extension I get this:

There is also a 1password icon on the toolbar on the right. I've tried clicking on them both and it looks like neither give the results you say.

Hey @mike3825,

My apologies it looks like you are still using 1Password 7 which would explain why the steps do not make much sense to you.

I would highly recommend upgrading to 1Password 8 and the latest version of 1Password for Safari so you can enjoy all of our new features and fixes. Here's how:

• Upgrade to 1Password 8 for Mac
• Install 1Password for Safari

Let me know how you get on!

We're making progress Steph,

I don't know why I wouldn't have upgraded before, I must have missed the notice about it.

Here's what I see now:

Something else that I've never understood is why I need both 1password8 for Mac and also 1password for Safari. Why wouldn't 1password for Safari work by itself? Or why wouldn't 1password8 for Mac work on any browser?

Thanks,

Mike
