    I use multiple Chrome windows at a time with different user accounts, and I'm still seeing this issue (on a new iMac with 1Password 4 installed, with the 1Password 4.0 extension installed for each Chrome user).

    The extension only seems to work for the first Chrome window/user that I opened.
    When both windows are open, and I Cmd+/ to login to a site on the 2nd window, the 1password helper opens, but no website is 'guessed'/preselected and when I navigate to the correct site via Logins -> typing the name, the website is opened in the 1st Chrome window instead.

    This is a big deal because 1password is not providing any convenience for me when using the 2nd window.

    Hi Ian,

    I moved your comment from a discussion on version 3 extensions to it's very own topic in the 1Password 4 for Mac category, just so we don't get things too muddled up.

    Our developers are aware of this issue and are working to find a solution. In the meantime, if you'd like to help us track this down, please take a peek at Mike's post in the beta forum and see if you can confirm that your browser is exhibiting the same behaviour.

    ... another user having the same issue.

    I can work around it by right-clicking the login field and selecting '1password'... then I get a mini-like popup which will populate the correct web page.

    Hi @teodeh,

    Thanks so much for providing your workaround here. I'm glad to hear you've found something to make things easier while our developers work to find a proper solution. :)

    This is better, but not fixed in 4.1 for me - when I have multiple logins saved for the same website, the same problem occurs and the same workaround still works :(

    Thanks for the followup, @teodeh.

    The issue you're having is in our bug tracker and mentions this discussion about it. I wish I could offer you a solution but am glad to hear the workaround is still possible.

    Enjoy your holidays!
