I'm running OS X version 10.10.1 on my iMac and 1Password Version 5.0.2. When I tried to use it today a single click opens it showing all my logins including my passwords in PLAIN TEXT!

    Hi @rlsully64‌

    Lets take those two issues separately.

    Visible passwords

    If they are permanently visible that would suggest a preference setting has been changed. If you enter 1Password's preferences and switch to the Security tab, how is the option Conceal Passwords set, is it enabled or disabled. If disabled re-enable it and that should take care of that one. Please not that holding down the ⌥ (alt) key will also show all passwords but that seems unlikely to be the culprit as that is a temporary modifier, they go back to being concealed when you take your finger off of the alt key.

    Opening 1Password without the Master Password

    By default there are certain conditions and timers before your vault is locked. All of these settings are also in the Security tab of 1Password's preferences. What are your Auto-lock preferences set to?

    Let us know how you get along and the state of your Auto-lock preferences.
