Hi Dave,

Thank you for the tips.

I tried following the instructions for using my iPhone's camera, but after aiming my camera at the QR code, a screen came up that said, "Choose a password to add this verification code" and "AutoFill Password." There were only two login items to choose from, neither of them Earthlink, and entering Earthlink in the the Search window didn't produce anything.

Copying and pasting the string of characters into the 1Password desktop application did work though. Without your suggestion to add a One-Time Password to the login item and paste the string there I wouldn't have thought to do that.

Thanks again,

David
