Never receive prompts from 1Password
I recently upgraded to a new computer and have had trouble getting 1Password working again.
The 1Password prompt for saving a new password never appears. Nothing seems to work as before.
I have tried using both 1Password 4 and 1Password 6 and have tried both the Beta version of the extension for Chrome and the regular version of the Chrome extension. I have it set to autosave new logins.
Assistance is appreciated.
1Password Version: 4.6.1.617
Extension Version: 4.6.3.1
OS Version: Win 10 64-bit
Sync Type: Dropbox

Sorry to hear about that, @zhiwiller. Is the extension working otherwise as you expect? Are you able to fill your details into sign in forms and the like? What about manual save?

Hi Jamie,
Thank you for your quick reply.No, I can't get it to ever save a password. It also doesn't seem to know what domain I'm currently looking at (like if I am on ebay and I click the browser extension I get nothing in the list) However, If I type a site name into the search when I click on the extension, I can get the extension to open a new tab and fill in the correct information, but I cannot ever seem to get it to connect with what I am currently doing.

Oh! I seem to have fixed it myself. It appeared to have been confused because I had both 1Password6 and 1Password4 hanging around. I uninstalled 1Password6 and now things appear to be working as expected.

Hi @zhiwiller,
The presence of both does seem create confusion. In the past I've always found that when the two are competing for the attention of the extension that 1Password 4 for Windows always wins but it seems you've found the opposite. For the moment you'll only want 1Password 6 for Windows if you have a 1Password account and 1Password 4 for Windows if you have a licence and intend to use locally stored vaults. It's likely that eventually 1Password 6 will serve everybody and then the natural assumption of downloading the latest version will apply again but just for now each version serves a distinct audience and it isn't the case that 1Password 6 is simply an improvement over 1Password 4.
Glad to hear you managed to tame 1Password and things are behaving better and I hope this explanation of the two versions helps a bit.
