Thanks for getting back to me @videojanitor and confirming this.

Can you also check the following settings and then let me know if you are still seeing inconsistent behaviour with using 1Password in Safari:

Make sure 1Password is allowed to run in the background:

  1. Click the 1Password icon in the menu bar and select “Quit”.
  2. Right-click your browser in your dock and select “Quit”.
  3. Click the Apple icon at the top left of your screen and select “System Settings”.
  4. Click “General” > “Login items”.
  5. Ensure 1Password is enabled under ‘Allow in background’.

Check 1Password is present in the menu bar:

  1. Open and unlock your 1Password desktop app
  2. In the left hand corner click on your account > Settings
  3. Make sure 'Keep 1Password in the menu bar is checked'

Let me know how you get on after following these steps and if you continue to have trouble.
