Solution for 1Password locking itself constantly despite auto-lock settings disabled
For the past several months I've been frustrated with 1Password on Firefox locking itself seemingly at random despite disabling the auto-lock settings. I assumed this was due to another bug with the ...
I'll upload a diagnostic report later today. The steps are very easy to reproduce:
- Disable Auto-lock under Settings > Security > Auto-lock. Uncheck "Lock on sleep, screensaver, or switching users, and set "Lock after computer is idle for" to Never.
- Quit 1Password via 1Password > Quit 1Password or Command-Q.
- Open 1Password. It will now be locked, as will the browser extension even if it remained open the whole time.
The above workaround works well enough for me that I've been able to re-enable the auto-lock settings without the app becoming unusable.
If you want to use a command that doesn't modify the 1Password preferences plist (~/Library/Preferences/com.1password.1password.plist), you can try the following:
defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add "Quit 1Password" "\0"
You can also set your own keyboard shortcut without using the Terminal under System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts… > App Shortcuts. I couldn't find a way to disable it altogether with this method, though.
