How do I change the webpage clipping (favicon) for a saved Login entry?

mgk

1 Password automatically saves a nice clipping of a webpage (what do you refer to this as?) but it is not always the page I want to see. How do I change this?



Thanks--

Hello mgk,



1Password downloads icons from the websites you visit [i][b]IF[/b][/i] the website provides an icon. We often refer to these icons/webpage clippings as [i]favicons.[/i]



When I first started using IP, I had the same complaint that you do. After reading the explanation, I started doing Google searches for Images using "apple-touch-icon" + the company/product/item name. In order to find good candidates, I restrict image size to 150x150.



Once you find an icon that you would like to use, select the saved login in question, click "Edit" and then drag and drop the icon onto the preview image (in the Mac version, it is in the upper right corner with a paperclip). Click "Save", and you should see a full icon on your bookshelf or in whichever view you use.



Please let us know if this method does not work for you.



Cheers!

In my case I have multiple 1password entries for the same URL (iCloud) because I've saved my account, my wife's account, etc. Only one of the 1Password entries uses the favicon. Is there an easy way to copy and paste the favicon from 1 1Password entry to another?



Thanks!
