Hello,

I use 1password as my Authenticator for Amazon's 2 factor ID method.
This morning, The Mac version generates a different code than my 2 iOS devices !

I tried rebooting syncing by changing the name of my Amazon card from The Mac and from the devices, but although the names do sync, the Unique password stays unsynced...

Any ideas ?

Thanks

1Password Version: 7.3.2 (70302003) Mac App Store
_Extension Version: Not Provided
_OS Version: Mojave 10.14.5
_Sync Type: 1Password account

    @Esowes: If you're talking about using 1Password to generate authenticator codes, that depends on the time being correct on the device in order for the Time-based One Time Password to be correct. It can help to make sure that your OS and browser are up to date, and to set the date/time/zone manually if it isn't syncing reliably.

    Turns out my MacBook was still on NYC time...

    Thanks.

    I hate when that happens! Usually it's just a few minutes, but that sounds pretty substantial. :lol: You're very welcome. Glad that did the trick. :+1:
