Hi all, Since I know there are a few 1Password users out there and also some Firefox users - I thought I would pass on the following:
Yesterday I finally decided to upgrade to Firefox4. A good move I think/hope - it seems much snappier. After setting up the toolbar how I like it and moving the tabs back down below the toolbar, I found my first problem - the PDF plug-in was not compatible with Firefox4. Google soon solved this with a compatible plug-in - however it currently requires running Firefox in 32 bit mode. I made the switch, pdfs open fine and off I went. Sometime later, I tried to use 1Password but found that it no longer worked in Firefox - at that time I didn't think about the 32 bit change but, since it was OK in Safari, I figured it had to be associated with the change to Firefox4. I found a related post at the Agile forums: <http://forum.agile.ws/index.php?/topic/4733-firefox-4-extension-partially-r esponsive/page__gopid__27338> And soon got the answer: > Also note that 1Password loads separate extensions for 32-bit and 64-bit > scenarios. This is determined at the time the extension is installed (not > every time it is activated when launching the browser).

That was all it was - removing and re-installing the extension cured the problem. Just something to be aware of if you run 1Password and change your browser from 64 bit to 32 bit (or vice versa).
