I have Apple store 1Password 5 installed. When installing the Firefox extension, it refuses to find 1Password and does not install the extension. Safari extension installed fine.

    Hi @laketahoebob‌

    Can I ask what version of Firefox you're currently running? I know we're working on compatibility issues with their betas at the moment and so I'm wondering if this is a factor. Given it works with Safari it shouldn't be a firewall issue but proxy settings specific to Firefox might interfere too.

    Let us know about version numbers and proxy settings in Firefox and we'll continue the troubleshooting from there :smile:

    FF 34.0.5. In FF the proxy setting is set to "Use system proxy settings".

    The extensions work in my MacPro so it must be something in the settings of this computer.

    I'm sorry that I can't really help beyond saying it's not as such a Firefox problem—because I'm running the same version as you with the same proxy setting and it's working fine, with the 4.2.5.b1 1P extension installed. I have rather a lot of other add-ons (including Ghostery and Adblock Edge) and there's no conflict there. Is it possible you have some add-on that is causing a conflict? (I should say I'm running 1P5.1.BETA-14—but did recently revert to 1P5.0.2 and that made no difference to the fact the FF worked perfectly for me with 1P5.)

    Just checked my MacPro. It's running 1PW version 5.0.2 and 1PW extension4.2.3. It works.

  • Hi @laketahoebob‌,

    Do you have a system proxy setup at all? We've seen instances lately where on systems that had an HTTP proxy setup that lacked an exception for "127.0.0.1" would end up with the extension unable to connect to the mini. Could you check that under System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Proxies > Web Proxy?

    There are no checks in the proxy tab. Nothing is selected including the Web Proxy box.

    Hi @laketahoebob‌

    I said earlier I didn't think it should be a firewall issue but I'm wondering, do you have any software firewall installed or something along the lines of Little Snitch? The browser extension communicates with 1Password mini via a socket so something is blocking that. If for some odd reason Firefox is blocked from communicating with 127.0.0.1 that would explain why it doesn't believe 1Password in installed. Software firewalls or web filtering software would seem a likely culprit given it doesn't seem to be the proxy.

    I originally thought that it wouldn't be a firewall because Safari works, so I'm wondering if it's specific rule blocking Firefox.

    It's a bit of a outside chance but maybe it's worth checking that web sockets are enabled in Firefox, I stumbled upon this page whilst looking for something else - Enabling the Websocket procotol in Firefox. I say it's an outside chance because I can't imagine how it would have been disabled.

    Websocket was true already.

    Hi @laketahoebob‌

    What happens if you use the Choose... button and select your copy of 1Password in your /Applications/ folder?

    I previously had the Agile 1PW but downloaded and installed the Apple version because I thought I saw the Apple version was needed to have the extension work. And it does for Safari, just not for FF.
