Hello, Joelc. Thank you for writing in, and congratulations on the new MacBook!

As a web extension, 1Password for Safari needs user permissions to operate effectively within the Safari browser. There are two fundamental types of permissions that Safari utilizes in this context:

For webpage contents, 1Password requires these permissions to fill and save logins and other details on all web pages.

For browser history permissions, this allows 1Password to suggest login items (saved in 1Password) for websites you visit.

I suggest configuring 1Password for Safari to allow access to all websites. I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
