Repeated requests for keychain access.

1Password keeps asking for access to my keychain. I get the following request:

"1PasswordAgent wants to use your confidential information stores in 1Passwd Master Password in your keychain".

I reply "Always allow" but next time I start up, I get this request again.

Is there a fix for this ??

    Hi, @kilima.

    It's most likely 1PasswordAgent from 1Password 3 is still configured to run, which is unnecessary with 1Password 4. Here's how you can fix that:

    • Go to Finder and choose Go > Go to Folder… and enter ~/Library/LaunchAgents
    • Delete ws.agile.1PasswordAgent.plist
    • Choose Go > Go to Folder… and enter ~/Library/Application Support/1Password
    • Delete the Agent folder
    • Restart your Mac

    After doing that the message to access your keychain should stop. I hope that works for you!

    Thank you - this worked for me. There is a solution posted earlier (see link) which does not work though. I've tried it very carefully.

    Could you please remove or update http://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/12036/1passwordagent-app-wants-to-use-your-confidential-information-stored-in-1passwd-master-password-in

    Thanks,

    Hi Doug ( @grantdoug ),

    I'm glad to hear that @sjk's solution above got your problem solved! The post you are referring to is found in the 1Password 3 section of our forum, and the fix there should still be valid for users on 3.8. I apologize for any confusion.

    If you run into any further snags, we'd be happy to help :)
