TL;DR
To find saved passwords on your Mac:
- Open the Passwords app from Applications, or find it with Spotlight.
- Unlock it with Touch ID or your Mac login password.
- Select a saved account to see its username and password. Use the search field if needed.
- If the password is hidden, click the dots or password field to reveal or copy it.
Can’t find a password you saved earlier? Start with Apple’s Passwords app if your Mac runs macOS Sequoia 15 or later. Older versions use Passwords in System Settings, while Chrome and Firefox keep credentials in their own managers unless you chose to save them to Apple Passwords.
Before We Begin
If you want to check whether an email address appears in known breach records, MacKeeper’s ID Theft Guard can scan verified addresses and, when monitoring is enabled, alert you to later matches. We may earn a commission if you buy through links in this article; that does not change our advice.
Protect Yourself Against Data Breaches With MacKeeper
MacKeeper says ID Theft Guard checks email addresses you add against known breach records. It can show matching records and, if you turn on its monitor, alert you about later matches. Review any result and change an affected password on the relevant website.
A scan checks the addresses you add; it does not change account passwords for you. Verify each address and review the listed service and breach information before taking action.
Follow these simple steps to use MacKeeper’s ID Theft Guard:
- Download and install MacKeeper on your Mac.
- After installation, open MacKeeper and click ID Theft Guard in the Privacy section.
- Click Open.
- Enter your email address and press Start Scan.
