macOS browser extension not working

Featured Replies

Hi

I'm using the Enpass 6.0.0 beta for macOS but there's a rather strange issue that's making it unuseable on my machine. Whenever I try to use the browser extension (tested with Chrome and Firefox, same results) nothing happens for a while and then a new tab opens saying "Looking for the Enpass app" and "If prompted, please grant permission to the browser in the pop-up to launch Epass." If Enpass is already running the tab closes after a while and nothing further happens. However when I quit Enpass and let the extension open it (by clicking the button in the browser) I am able to use it exaclty once from within the browser (the popup opens when I click the extension button a second time) but the popup doesn't know what page I am currently on so it can't provide usefull autofill information. It just opens the same way as if I clicked the taskbar icon. When I try to open the popup again the same tab as before opens and nothing happens afterwards.

Do you know what causes this issue/can you repoduce it/are you aware of it?

Got the same problem.

* Mac 10.14

* Chrome  69.0.3497.100 (Official Build) (64-bit)

From Chrome console,  the plugin cannot connect the application through the port.

Same issue under mojave with Firefox 62.0.3. After a fresh boot of my macbook, I have Access to my passwords, later on the browser extension is trying to access the enpass app, which isn't working anymore.

Same for Vivaldi 2.1.1337.51 (Chromium 70.0.3538.113). Extension doesn't connect to the App anymore. What's strange is, the Beta Download page indicates the version of the Chrome Addon being 6.0.0.6, but the version on the Chrome Web Store still is 6.0.0.56. looks like there is something wrong on more than one level. Enpass 5 is bugged, Enpass 6 Beta now too.

I'll wait a few more days for a fix, if nothing comes, I'll switch to Bitwarden....

It doesn't work under Windows either (tried both Chrome and Firefox).

Running into this issue as well on Windows 10.

Got it working by closing the app entirely.

Open browser and click icon.

Start the app when prompted.

It will probably fail but will start the app.

Go to system trey and right click icon.

Click on any entry for a website so it opens up that page in the browser.

Now click on the Enpass icon in the browser again.

It then prompted me to type in a random pin to attach the app to the browser.

 

Not sure which part o this process actually fixed it but everything's working now.

Had the same issue today: macOS 10.14.1; Firefox 63.0.3. Restarting the Mac helped (and seems to be a shortcut to the workaround of Xarin above).

Addition: This happens more often: After clicking the extension icon, nothing happens at all. (macOS 10.14.1; Firefox 63.0.3, Enpass 6 beta 250, extension 6.0.0.56b). Quitting and reopening Enpass helps.

Same Issue here.

Tried this with no success:
- Quit Enpass and click on extension icon to start Enpass, but it just opens it minimized in menu bar but throughs the error anyway.
- Restart Mac/Restart Enpass
- Reinstall browser extension
- Reinstall Enpass 6 beta

Versions:
- macOS 10.14.1
- Enpass 6.0.0 (220)
- Extension 6.0.0.56
- Google Chrome 70.0.
