Touch ID greyed out

Hello logicelf! 👋
I'm sorry that you're unable to turn on Touch ID after migrating to a new Mac. If you've used Time Machine or Apple's Migration Assistant to migrate to your new Mac then the 1Password app may sometimes need to be reset in order for Touch ID unlock to work on the new Mac. Follow these steps:
🚨 Before proceeding, make sure that you have a copy of your Emergency Kit, that you know your account password, and that you're signed into 1Password on another device.
- Reset the 1Password app: How to reset the 1Password app on a specific device
- Add your 1Password account back to the 1Password app: How to add your 1Password account to the apps
- Follow the prompts to setup 1Password, turn on Touch ID, and configure any settings that you had configured before.
Let me know if you didn't use Time Machine or Migration Assistant or if these steps don't work for you.-Dave
Thanks Dave - I managed to reach out to support directly after a few days with no reply here, and they also suggested this - which worked. A KB article for this apparently semi-regular issue would be useful.
