An error occurred while installing the extension “1Password”.
This is the message I get every time I try too download safariextz, I have tried from different sites with the same result. I can use 1password with Google, but I prefer to work with Safari. I would not call myself tech savvy, and I'm not 100% sure why I need the extension. I am assuming it has something too do with 1passwords ability to automatically autofill my info into websites and apps.


1Password Version: 6.0.2
Extension Version: 5.4.2
OS Version: OS 10.11.2
Sync Type: iCloud
Referrer: kb:import

    @FMK - You report that you are using 1Password 6.0.2, which is the current release for the Mac version. Yet you have posted in the iOS section of the forum. Could you confirm that your issue is about the Mac version? I'll move your post to the Mac section of the forum if that is the case. Given the rest of your post, I expect that it is about the Mac version.

    I'm curious to know whether you have tried to install the extension by using the Install Browser Extensions option from the 1Password menu?

    Also, here is an article that might help: How to fix the “Safari can’t install this extension” error Let us know if it helps.

    Finally, you said,

    This is indeed why you want to install the extension. But one little correction - if we are discussing the Mac version, it won't fill to applications directly. For those you will need to copy and paste your credentials.

  • Hi @FMK,

    Have you had any luck with this? If you are still having difficulties please let us know (and please answer hawkmoth's questions above).

    Thanks!

    Ben
