Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Dane Trethowan]

Yep that is correct, the Pro version is at this time unaccessible with Ipad.

The developers are aware of this and plan to fix the problems once 1 Password 
for other platforms is stable and working as it should.

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Annie Skov Nielsen]

Hi.

I have also had my troubles with 1password on the mac, but I have godt it to 
work, but you are right Gordon, There are some annoying accessibility problems. 
I have also bought the 1password pro for my IPhone and IPad, but with no 
further luck. I can not get it to work, and it is as if the pro version is 
totally inaccessible.

Best regards Annie.

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Gordon Smith]

Hi Bryan

1Password doesn't seem to be doing a lot here, despite the fact that, I thin, 
it's properly configured.  I set it up to allow us to auto-login. But still 
we're being presented with website passwords and asked to save the darn thing 
every time by 1Password.  We have the latest OSX extension installed and 
configured.  Per Dane's suggestion of yesterday I did go in to the preferences 
and configure the password preferences.  I set them to what should have been 
automated mode, but to no effect it seems.

We have the latest 1Password application installed. Clearly I'm doing something 
wrong but i'm absolutely baffled by what it might be.  I'm getting to the point 
now where I'm contemplating using the very excellent "TrashMe" application to 
zap the darn thing and then just go back to the old way of doing things, 
manually.  I'd rather not, as the concept of 1Password does, I can't deny, 
appeal to me.  It has some very nice side-features which although we haven't 
yet used, I'm sure we could make good use of them if we could get the thing 
configured.  But, it's just the usual thing I guess, time getting in the way at 
the moment.

I've been working since 7 this morning to catch up with things I should have 
got done this week for my paid side of things.  Those are now done and ready 
for the masses on Monday.  So I'm trying now to get things configured for the 
non-commercial side of our operations and just today we overcame a very large 
obstacle which has been presenting a very big problem for a couple of months.

Anyway, back to the point.  I'll probably end up tearing up the existing work 
sheet and starting again.  I'm not just throwing in the towel, don't get me 
wrong.  I'm sure that 1Password is capable of far more and better than it's 
doing right now.  I don't dispute for a second that this is most likely user 
configuration error.  But at the moment it has me most confused.

As for your security concerns, yes, I understand them totally.  In fact I share 
some of them.  But in all fairness, I think 1Password is pretty safe, since 
it's been designed from the ground up to be so.  It's hard sometimes to let go 
of old paranoia.  I still have a few of them which I just can't drop.  But I 
think it's safe enough to trust 1Password.  But I think I'll drop that just for 
now and see if I can set up TrueCrypt.  Lynne tried, but gave up after a while 
because she found it too complicated.  Well, she isn't a bird like me, I'll 
have a shot at it now and see if I can't encrypt a folder or two so that we can 
store it on Drop Box etc.

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Dane Trethowan]

Command-\ works from Safari yep but this command still has some accessibility 
issues which are being worked on so you may not be able to access it in Safari.

Its a bit odd in its behaviour at times too!

For example, suppose you visit a site which you have saved in 1 Password and 
press command-\, sometimes you're asked to enter the Master Password and then 1 
Password automatically logs into the site which was the default behaviour of 
this shortcut before Lion and the additional functionality of the Safari 1 
Password extension came along.

The most reliable way to log into a web site I've found thus far is to go into 
the 1 Password application itself, find the site login you want by using the 
"search" function which has focus once the master password is entered and then 
pressing option-command-enter to "Autofill login", this command runs sfarai, 
brings up the login page and logs into the site.

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Gordon Smith]

I'm lead to believe that you can press Command+Backslash or 
Command+Option+Backslash from the command prompt and 1Password will pop up. Is 
that right? I gather it will present you with a list of sites you've visited.  
If this is right, how I read it from the docs, it ain't working here.

This window may pop-up if you use Safari without using 1 Password to "login" to 
a site you visit as 1 Password may think that the site hasn't been saved and of 
course! its not activated at that point as you haven't entered the Master 
Password so it can be a catch 22 .

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Gordon Smith]

Hi Chris

Thanks, I'll look. I've just installed the latest version.  I think we already 
had it actually but I re-installed it, plus the Safari extension, just to be on 
the safe side.

I need to play with this though to see how you use it to create strong 
passwords.

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Dane Trethowan]

If ever you come across the "Save login info" just press the escape key and it 
will go away.

This window may pop-up if you use Safari without using 1 Password to "login" to 
a site you visit as 1 Password may think that the site hasn't been saved and of 
course! its not activated at that point as you haven't entered the Master 
Password so it can be a catch 22 .

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Gordon Smith]

Hi Dane, long time no speak.

I'll have to check that preference then because Lynne is telling me she did set 
all that up.

But it's entirely possible that something got screwed up during an update.  It 
gets on my nerves, to be honest, being asked every time we repeat a visit to a 
website, even in the same Safari session, to enter the master password and save 
the log-in info.

I'll go and check it right now though.

Thanks.

Gordon

How often you enter your Master Password for 1 Password is determined by the 1 
Password Preferences, by default you're asked to enter the "master Password" 
for each new session of Safari you launch and this is a security measure but 
can be changed.

I think from memory there's a "time-out" feature as well, for example if 1 
Password isn't used within 20 minutes then the cache for the software is 
cleared.

I would strongly recommend that you make sure you have the latest upgrade, one 
just released yesterday I think it was.

Re: What's the point of 1Password?

[Dane Trethowan]

Ah well if you save your passwords in 1 Password then you only have to enter 
your Master Password once in each session.

How often you enter your Master Password for 1 Password is determined by the 1 
Password Preferences, by default you're asked to enter the "master Password" 
for each new session of Safari you launch and this is a security measure but 
can be changed.

I think from memory there's a "time-out" feature as well, for example if 1 
Password isn't used within 20 minutes then the cache for the software is 
cleared.

I would strongly recommend that you make sure you have the latest upgrade, one 
just released yesterday I think it was.

What's the point of 1Password?

[Gordon Smith]

Hi all

We have 1Password installed an active.  When we run Safari and log into a 
website that requires passwords, we're always asked for the password and then 
the Master Password dialogue of 1Password pops up and asks us to unlock it and 
then save the website login.

Going to the same password again does exactly the same thing, and again, and 
again, and agin.  So what is the point of 1Password?

Actually I'm finding 1Password a real pain in the but!  I'm sick of this master 
password dialogue poplin up every time I want to visit a website I've used 
before and supposedly, saved the log-in info for.
