Extension on Mac stealing focus from browser, making it impossible to use Firefox or Chrome

Hello aosaigh and Marcus4Aspern! 👋

I'm sorry that 1Password was taking focus from your browser. This is a known issue with the latest version of 1Password that our developers are currently working to resolve and involves the connection between the desktop app and 1Password in the browser.

You should be able to get things working by using the following steps:

1. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
2. Make sure that you are signed into the app: How to add another 1Password account to the apps and browser extension
3. Click on 1Password next to the  in the menu bar.
4. Click Settings.
5. Click Browser.
6. Toggle the "Connect with 1Password in the browser" setting.

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

Just noticed this is happening on a separate machine also, so not a configuration issue.

After having come home from travelling I started to experience a strange bug: The 1password chrome extension constantly grabs the focus, so I have f.e. to click 2-3 times on any button in Chrome and cannot type anything in the bar. In the Statusbar 1password, not Chrome is the foreground app. As soon as I deactivate the extension Chrome is back to normal behaviour.

1Password Version: 8.10.39
Extension Version: 2.27.1
OS Version: MACOS 14.5
Browser: Chrome 127.0.6533.100

Same for me on Chrome, I had to deactivate the extension

Sorry, its here the wrong subformum, should have posted it in the browser subforum, I don´t know how to move it.

Thanks it seems to be working now.

Thanks, this resolved the issue!

That looks to be correct. I did not see a mention of a resolution in the latest release notes.
