Hello @beachboy301! 👋

I'm sorry that copying and pasting a password from 1Password isn't working correctly on your Mac. Before we begin troubleshooting, please update to version 8.10.20: How to keep 1Password up to date

That being said, I can't reproduce the same issue on my own Mac, here's what I'm doing:

  1. I saved a Login item in 1Password with ^uR#64tYuvsP as the password.
  2. I hover over the password field in 1Password and click Copy.
  3. I open TextEdit and then press Command-V to paste.
  4. I see ^uR#64tYuvsP in TextEdit.

If I misunderstood the issue then can you post steps that I can follow to reproduce the issue?

Can you also hover over the password field in 1Password, click the down arrow that appears, and then click Reveal. Do you see ^uR#64tYuvsP?
