1Password Safari Extension Not Working

Ongoing macOS (Safari) Updated October 21, 2026

Quick answer

The Safari extension often loses its connection to the Mac app, especially after macOS or Safari updates. Fully quit 1Password and Safari and reopen them; if it keeps recurring, clear Safari history or try a new Safari profile.

Most likely fix: Quit 1Password completely and relaunch.

Symptoms

The extension icon does nothing, opens a blank tab, shows locked while the app is unlocked, or autofill stops working in Safari only.

Why it happens

  • Broken connection between the Safari extension and the Mac app
  • macOS/Safari update incompatibility (e.g. macOS 14.2 beta bug)
  • Corrupted Safari profile state
