Touch ID greyed out for me as well

qposner

It used to work. Stopped working 2-3 weeks ago maybe. Looks like this is a big problem for all Mac users. The steps you provide do not work.

Hello @qposner! 👋

I'm sorry to hear that Touch ID isn't working to unlock 1Password on your Mac. Are you still able to unlock the Mac itself using Touch ID? You mentioned trying some steps, can you please try these specific steps:

1. Completely turn off your Mac and then turn it on to restart it. (Don't skip this step.)
2. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
3. Choose Apple menu  > System Settings, then click Touch ID & Password.
4. Turn off all of the features, then turn all of them back on again.
5. Go back to 1Password and choose 1Password > Settings from the menu bar.
6. Click the Security icon, then turn on "Touch ID".
7. Lock 1Password by choosing 1Password > Lock from the menu bar.
8. Now try unlocking 1Password using Touch ID.

If that doesn't work then let me know and I can help further.

Yes, Touch ID works on everything else. Already tried all of that. No dice.

I just restarted and opened 1Password. Suddenly the touch ID popped up. Very strange since it wasnt working when I was trying it yesterday and following those instructions. Seems its like taking your car to the mechanic and it wont make the noise. :-) Anyhow, Im good now. Thanks!
