Can't download Add-on to Safari.
Just starting trial version, and get message: " Add-on could not be downloaded because of a connection failure on agilebits.com"
I see a download box show up for milliseconds, then the message above appears.
My web connection is OK.

@Btu65_PI: Unfortunately without some basic information it's hard to say what might be going wrong and how we might right it! Please tell me the OS, 1Password, and browser versions you're using, the exact steps you're taking, and what is (or is not) happening the way you expect so we can figure out the best plan of action.
The more information you can give, the better. For instance, it sounds like you may be encountering an issue with Safari trying to download the extension. Is that the case? This is usually due to 'security' software or settings on your PC, so any relevant information about your setup may be helpful.
Ultimately, AgileBits doesn't have any control over your ability (or lack thereof) to install the extension in your browser, especially if you're not allowed to for some reason. You could try downloading it in another browser instead and then dragging the extension to Safari to install it manually though. Please let me know what you find. Thanks in advance! :)

Hi @Btu65_PI,
This is usually caused by Avast. If you do have that, try the instruction here for Firefox, which should be the same for Safari: https://support.1password.com/cannot-install-extension/
Also, we do not recommend using Safari as it hasn't been updated for over two years and it is likely to be insecure. We'd recommend switching to Firefox, Opera, or Chrome.

Correction to my above.
I'm actually using Firefox 41.0.1, 1Password 4.6.0.586, on Win7, 64bit, Home Premium, Serv. Pack 1.
I'm thinking that something in Firefox or maybe my Bitdefender 2016 is prohibiting the download of the 1Password add-on. Don't know why I said "Safari" above.
I still having the down load blocked.0 -
Hi @Btu65_PI,
It is the same instruction for Firefox as it is for Safari, try downloading the extension to your drive first instead of installing it from our page: https://support.1password.com/cannot-install-extension/
Once you have it on the drive, you can then install it there and that should work.
