    If you have time please submit a diagnostic report. Can you also try completely quitting 1Password and opening it again? Here's how to do that.

    1. Look for our helper in the menu bar near the WiFi indicator and the clock. Right-click (Option-click) on the helper and select Quit.
    2. Quit your browser.
    3. Open 1Password and check for proper operation.

    If you find you need to write in please include the results of that quick test. Thank you.

  • Hey folks. New beta alert.

    https://releases.1password.com/mac/beta/#1password-for-mac-8.10.36-35

    • We’ve fixed an issue where Security settings would be reset or disabled after updating the app.

    • We’ve fixed an issue that caused biometric unlock to reset and a trusted device to be deauthorized if you updated the app while your device was going into sleep mode.

    Updated and is working as expected so far.

  • Thanks for the update, @jfgreco . Please let us know if anything changes. I'm not expecting it to; I'm just remaining vigilant. :)

    Hi

    The Touch ID and Apple Watch settings do seem to be resolved. but I am still very occasionally seeing the 'Touch ID sensor is currently unavailable. You need to sign in using the account password.' message. Locking and unlocking my Mac with the Touch ID sensor seems to resolve the issue for 1Password.

    It was suggested this was unrelated but for me both issues started at the same time, is this a big coincidence?

    Anyone else still reporting the same Touch ID unavailable message?

    Thank you for your help.

  • @iwaddo

    I'd certainly keep talking with my colleagues from the technical team via email. You might be an edge case. Having them look at any reports would be the best path forward.

    Your situation is likely due to the transfer in my experience. I'd recommend emailing the team a diagnostic report to help determine that and rule in or out other causes.

    Please email us usingsupport+forum@1password.com. Be sure to use the email address tied to the account in question.

    Include the following:

    @manxman Is the Touch ID working to lock and unlock your MAC?

    If you lock and unlock your Mac with the Touch ID does 1Password suddenly work again?

    If so this is what I see. Not often but it happens.

    Please Email us at that address support+forum@1password.com. There is no page to visit. :)
