I created my sentence and it is to long for the password? I am truly lost.

dirkNpit

I created the sentence that it said to create, then it pops up wanting my master password, and my sentence is way to long, what am I doing wrong?

There is no material restriction on the length of your master password. I suspect you're seeing a merely cosmetic issue where there appears not to be sufficient space. If you just keep typing you'll find the master password is accepted in any event.

If that's not the problem you have, please tell us:

• What version of 1P for Mac you are using
• Your OS X version number
• Exactly what happens when you type your full master password when prompted

5.4( It will not let me go past the right side of the password entry, I have tried to type it in several times. It just pops up the hint when I click)

0s x version is 9.0

Under the app store it says there was an error downloading it, but I can't get that to work either, it just opens up the password page

Sir, I got into the back of it and changed the master password to a shorter version and it worked.

Thank you for your help, now I just have to learn how to use it.

Hey @dirkNpit,

Glad to hear you got everything sorted out. 1Password does indeed accept long passwords, it's just a bit difficult to see the progress of typing it when all the characters display as •••••
