1P6 insists on using Firefox but website demands Safari

I normally use Firefox and all of my Logins, etc were created via Firefox.
But one specific website (Garmin.com) demands access via Safari.

How can I persuade this one 1P6 Login to switch over to use Safari and not Firefox ?

Version 10.11.6 (15G31)

1Password 6

Firefox
Version 48.0

    Hi @Lamplighter,

    At this time, it is not possible to select a specific browser for individual Logins. 1Password will open and fill in your default browser.

    I would suggest opening Safari to the appropriate page, and then using the ⌘\ ( Command- \ ) keyboard shortcut to fill when the sign in fields are visible.

    I hope this helps!

    Hi @Lamplighter,

    It seems you’ve posted the same question in two separate threads. I’ve merged them together, I hope that’s alright! Please see my answer above.

    Well, I managed to screw up something !
    I was able to get my 1P6 Login for Gamin.com to AUTOMATICALLY use Safari, and was very satisfied working with it all day off and on accessing that website. I have no idea what I had changed to make that happen.

    Today I am trying to go back to using Firefox for all of my other Logins.
    But now 1P6 insists on continuing to default to Safari for all other Logins.
    This makes for complications on saving or not saving passwords in Safari
    I have tried multiple times of quitting Safari / launching Firefox / quitting both / etc before calling the 1P6 Logins

    Any suggestions about changing the default browser back to Firefox ?

    .

    NEVERMIND !!! I just discovered that sometime yesterday I had changed the "Default Browser" in Safari's Preferences. By opening Firefox and making it the default browser (again) I am happily back to where I wanted to be.
