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.
