What are the keyboard shortcuts for copying login and password in 1Password without using the browser extension?

I am using 1Password (version 3.8.5) to manage my login data and somehow I am reluctant to use the browser extensions. I want to speed up my login and password acquisition though and therefore I am searching for keyboard shortcuts to:

  1. Copy a password
  2. Copy a login

The keyboard shortcuts for getting to the login I have searched for or for tabbing to the correct item in the UI is something I am already familiar with.


Solution 1:

There are not specific keyboard shortcuts for those two individual items in 1Password but you can navigate to them with the keyboard.

Here's how you could get a login or password into your clipboard without pushing a mouse (or fondling a trackpad).

  1. Command-F to search for the account you want to access
  2. ↑ / ↓ to move up or down through the search results
  3. Command-E to switch to edit mode for the selected record
  4. Tab until you get to the field you want to copy
  5. Command-C to copy the value from the field
  6. Command-E again to exit edit mode

You now have the value you want on your clipboard.

I know it's not the single shortcut you were looking for but I think it's as close as you're going to get with 1Password.

Solution 2:

Was just searching for the exact same thing and it looks as though 1Password has had this function recently added as I found this post: http://support.agilebits.com/discussions/1password-38-for-mac-from-agilebits-website/6681-keyboard-shortcut-to-copy-password

Option+Command+c will copy the currently selected password. Just tried it on my copy and it works great.
