Can't see or edit password on some accounts

Not sure what version this started happening with, but I can't visually see my password for several accounts. Seems okay with credit card, but with some of my checking accounts, when I click edit and then click in the password/pin block, it just goes blank. I don't even have a "copy" option next to it. I need to get to several passwords to remember them. Any way to see them or copy them? Seems strange to me.

    Just to clarify- on one account in 1Password, I can click the copy button when scrolling my cursor over the PIN. On another account, the PIN and Copy button don't even show up, requiring me to go to Edit. Even then, there is no copy button and when clicking in the entry, it disappears, not allowing me to do any copying at all. The reason I want to copy the password is because I forgot what it was and when trying to log in with it to my bank account, it failed for some reason. More than two fails will shut me out. That's why I want to see my password so I can manually enter it at my bank's login page.

    Strange, but the password actually showed up when clicking in the field and the "copy" option was there as well. Tried again later with the same trouble.

    Hi csonni,



    Thank you for taking the time ask about this. I am sorry for the late reply.



    Have you tried simply pressing the OPTION key when viewing a login? This will reveal the password. You can also change the behavior so that passwords are revealed by default:

    I hope that helps. Please let me know. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />
