How to make 1Password work with Rockmelt (Mac)

Published on November 24, 2010 in Applications and reviews, Productivity, Technology

I got one of the early Rockmelt builds and liked it OK because I live in my browser anyway, but I couldn’t use it seriously because I rely on 1Password (don’t have it? Go buy it now). It would be impossible for me to list all the reasons that 1Password is a must-have app (I have it on both Macs, iPhone, and iPad), so I won’t try.

The point of my post IS, Rockmelt just updated to Chrome 7, so theoretically the 1Password extension works, but if you try to install it by the usual means the Chrome browser opens. Once again, NNR has done your research for you. If you’re on a Mac, open Rockmelt, let it update itself, restart it, and then go to this URL from within Rockmelt:

http://aws.cachefly.net/aws/dmg/1PW3/English/OnePasswordChrome.crx

Voila! Works fab-ly. Also, I evidently have 5 invitations to Rockmelt, so leave a comment saying something nice or funny and I’ll dole them out. If there are more than 5 comments, nicest or funniest win.

UPDATE: There are lies, damn lies, and lies perpetrated by the inconvenience of Facebook. Turns out I lied because I can distribute invitations only through Facebook, so I can’t just dole them out. You can still write nice funny, comments though.

    Wow, this is really helpful. Thank you!

    PS I couldn’t agree more about 1Password.

    NNR, thanks for this info – worked great!

  • Kyle

    Rockmelt looks pretty cool… would love to try it out… but I agree about 1Password.

    I even swapped back to Safari from Chrome for a while when the 1password plugin didn’t work in chrome…

    Can’t live without 1Password. Deal breaker whenever a new browser is introduce.

    I hadn’t even heard of Rockmelt until this (saw 1Password message linking here).

    Would love an invite if there’s still one left… and have I mentioned how nice you look today? Have you been working out?

      TJ, your comment made me laugh. I went to your site, saw that you are generously giving away a 1Password code, and copied your e-mail address down, only to note that the invites can be given only through Facebook. Stupid social browser.

    THANK YOU!! I have been going nuts trying to find a solution for RockMelt. This works perfectly!

    Works for me! Thank you.

    Was forced to install LastPass plugin as a substitute, but WAY prefer 1Password.

  • John Dennett

    Fantastic! This has been the only thing holding me back from adopting RockMelt full time — thank you som much!

    Thanks!

    I have been poking at RockMelt for about a week, and the major thing that stopped me from setting it as my primary browser was 1Password support.

    Wonderful! Thanks a million for this…

    Thanks for the short description. Really like that it works now, because this one of the reasons I did not use RockMelt all day.
    Pretty great now.

    Rockmelt has definitely piqued my interest…

  • http://justinkent.com Justin Kent

    Amazing how reliant I’ve gotten on command-\, and the momentary panic that ensues when it doesn’t log me in!

    Thank you so much for this fix!!!

  • Kayzah

    Thank you!  Very Helpful.  Saved me a lot of time.

    All the best to you.

    So how do we know that this version of the extension is not tampered with and will steal all our passwords?
