Morning all,

I’ve recently started using the latest MacOS beta and part of that is a new version of Safari, V18. I’m curious if anyone else is using this yet, reason I ask is I have a strange issue and I’m not sure it’s the beta (probably is) or just some kind of other issue.

The main Bitwarden app works flawlessly and shows all passwords as you’d expect. Chrome also continues to work as expected (not upgraded, same version as pre MacOs beta). The strange thing is the Safari extension shows no passwords at all, though the even more strange thing is I can sync and it shows my vaults and folders, there’s just nothing in them. To confuse matters even more, I can add passwords to it and it shows those newly added logins. So very odd. It feels like I’ve got some kind of filter enabled.

Anybody else using this yet to confirm if it’s just an issue with the Beta safari rather that a strange bug I’ve managed to come across sin Bitwarden’s extension?

I have the same issue, I could not sync the passwords with Safari 18. I tried to reinstall bitwarden, but with no success. Any solutions?
Thanks.

There was a thread about “sync problem” recently - that’s the only thing I can conribute now: Safari Browser Extension does not sync - Everything else does - 2 Macs tested

Any updates? After working fine for quite some time the update to 14.7 and Safari 18.0.1 broke syncing for me. Sounds like the same bug. From piecing together info from here and GitHub, it really looks like this becomes an issue when you have a large number of logins (like thousands)…

Perhaps 15.0 will resolve it, Sequoia. I am using 15+18 without a problem.

(edit:erratum)

Did you previously have this issue or no?

Those, who followed the link I provided around three weeks ago :sweat_smile:, would have seen that at least two people could solve this (the sync problem) by emptying the trash. (but please don’t delete something permanently, what you still need)

Not that issue, but the problem otherwise recognised of not being able to fill by keys shortcut, and some general-purpose flakiness. I did not have a lot of records in trash nor need of export/import of records.

Didn’t work for me for the sync problem. But I did discover the hard limit for sync to work is 2,849 entries. Hit 2,850 and it fails to sync (all ONLY on the Safari extension). Emptying the trash I presume decreases the number of entries, so it may or may not fix it, depending on how close you are to that upper limit.
