Problem With 1PW4 and Encrypted Sparsebundle On Login
I use Espionage3 to encrypt a folder on my Macbook which is stored in an encrypted sparsebundle. It appears that 1PW is trying to access that sparsebundle when I first log in to the laptop which generates a password prompt to unlock that bundle. Canceling the prompt doesn't seem to have any negative effects. If I disable the mini in 1PW preferences and log out/log in I get no password prompt for the sparsebundle so it appears that 1PW4 is the culprit. This behavior showed up after upgrading from 1PW3 to 1PW4. It doesn't appear to cause a problem but it is annoying.

I forgot to mention that my dropbox containing the agile keychain is contained in this encrypted folder which is unlocked on login. Perhaps the 1PW helper is trying to access the agile keychain before the folder is unlocked thus generating the password prompt. Then the question is if the mini is disabled does the 1PW helper not run on login or does it not try to access the agile keychain?

Hi @jrd4848,
I forgot to mention that my dropbox containing the agile keychain is contained in this encrypted folder which is unlocked on login.
That explains it. 1Password mini needs to export and sync your changes from the main 1Password app's data store into the sync file inside the sparsebundle file.
1Password 4 has a separate internal data store (OnePassword.sqlite), so that's why it didn't react negatively when you cancel the password prompt, it'll assume the sync file is inaccessible. It'll try again later.
Here are the new locations to the internal data file depending on where you bought 1Password from:
Mac App Store: ~/Library/Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.agilebits.onepassword-osx-helper/Data/Library/Data
Agile Web Store: ~/Library/Application Support/1Password 4/I hope that helps.
