How can I make it stop??
1Password 7 brought an annoying new "feature" -- when I'm on a web page with information to fill out, it keeps popping up this little box trying to fill in suggestions, which as often as not, is wron...

It sounds like the extension in your browser may have lost its connection with the desktop app, which is why the "Unlock 1Password" button is unresponsive.
You can get things working again by restarting 1Password and the browser:
- Right click the little 1Password icon on the top menu bar of your Mac (where the clock is) and select "Quit 1Password Completely".
- Quit your browser by right clicking its icon in the Dock and selecting "Quit".
- Open and unlock 1Password.
- Open the browser and test if it is working properly.
As for the inline menu's constant appearance - 1Password will show the inline menu automatically when you focus into a field that 1Password can help you autofill, such as a username field, password field, email, street address, zip code, credit card number etc. It is really handy in most cases.
However, if you find the inline menu too intrusive, you can definitely tone it down. If you're using Safari, here's how:
- Open and unlock the 1Password 7 desktop app.
- Click the "1Password" menu on the top left next to the Apple logo and select "Preferences".
- In the preferences window that pops up, Select the "Browsers" tab and turn off the "Automatically show inline menu when selecting a field" option.
After you turn that off, the inline menu won't open on its own again. You will need to click the little 1Password icon on the right side of each field to show that menu.
I hope that will improve your experience and workflow :)
