Welcome to the forums, helpleaaseeee! I'm sorry that you are having trouble with the new Safari extension.



Let's make sure you're all set up with the latest version of 1Password and our new extension, which supports Safari 5.1 on Lion and Snow Leopard. If you just upgraded to Lion or Safari 5.1 on Snow Leopard, please follow these steps:



- Update 1Password: Quit Safari, open 1Password, and go to 1Password > Check for Updates to make sure you're running the latest version

- If there is an update waiting for you, perform the update, and once 1Password restarts, [b]enter your Master Password to unlock it. [/b] This is one of the most important steps, so I will repeat it. [b]Enter your Master Password to unlock the main 1Password application and leave it open.[/b]

- 1Password should then prompt you to install our updated extension that supports Safari 5.1. This will automatically start Safari to begin the installation.



If you're already running the latest version of 1Password but the 1P button in Safari is not working, let's try a clean re-install of the extension:



- In Safari, go to Safari > Preferences > Extensions, then click 1Password in the left sidebar there. Click the uninstall button, and quit Safari.

- Now in 1Password, go to 1Password > Preferences > Browsers, and click the "Install Safari Extension" button.

- This should automatically start Safari to begin the installation.



When the installation is done, you will have a new, redesigned extension that gives you more and faster access to more of you data right in the browser. We're still working on reimplementing all of the features from the previous extension. The new extension means that it is now an official Safari extension, will automatically update to new versions, and is compatible with new technologies and rules that Apple introduced in Lion and Safari 5.1.

I hope that helps. Please let me know.



Thanks!
