Under Safari-Preferences-Passwords, there is a list of my online passwords. How can I copy the contents of that dialog box and paste it into a printed document that I can put away in a safe place?
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
Select the contents, press COMMAND-C to copy. Transfer to a document in TextEdit and press COMMAND-V to paste the selection.
Thank you for the quick reply. However, when I paste into TextEdit, I get a copy of an email that my wife sent earlier in the day.
PS I am trying to copy keychain passwords.
Then you have done something wrong. Did you check the box in the lower left to display the passwords? If not, then you did not copy anything. You ended up pasting the last thing you copied.
Yes I checked that box and all the passwords are displayed. I used Command-A to select all and everything in the box is highlighted. However, when I then use Command-C, I get the "funk" sound effect which usually means that an operation cannot be completed.
That means you cannot copy the information. You could make a screen snapshot of it:
