I tried to launch 1Password on my Mac (as I always do). I was prompted to log in with my Apple ID by the App Store. Something about 1Password was purchased using a different computer so they needed to verify my Apple ID to ensure I made the purchase (I bought this a long time ago so wonder why this is coming up now). Oddly enough, this never happened before. The request is fine and all since I did buy it through the App Store originally except for one giant problem...
All my passwords are random insanely long passwords auto-generated by 1Password. I don't memorize that stuff (including my Apple ID) and that's the whole point of using 1Password in the first place. The very thing that has all my passwords is inaccessible because the stupid App Store requires Apple ID verification before proceeding (a catch-22). If I don't verify and log-in, the application effectively never launches.
Thankfully I have 1Password access on my other devices and was able to login and verify, but I can already imagine a scenario where this could have been blocked on everything.
Anyone else encounter anything like this?
