MacOS 14.4 fingerprint option not configurable

wentwort

My fingerprint reader is enabled and working on my MAC 14.4, but 1password fingerprint option can not be enabled. It is grey'd out and not selectable. I have tried removing my fingerprints, rebooting, adding fingerprints back in. I have downloaded and reinstalled 1password not luck. I can not select the fingerprint option.

Hello @wentwort! 👋

I'm sorry that you’re unable to turn on Touch ID for 1Password on your Mac. Thank you for listing what you've tried so far, can you try these steps in order:

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 this still doesn't work then let me know and I can help further.

The instructions stop working at step 6. I still can not select/enable "Touch ID". It is grey'd out and not selectable.

I was able to get this to work.. I had to quit 1password, completely uninstall 1password, reboot, reinstall and configure 1password. After this I can now use fingerprint and apple watch with 1password. Thanks for working with me on this.
