    Help! I am getting very confused... In the Passwords app I have the following entries:

    1. Apple Support (with alt username and password)
    2. Apple Support (with above username email as username, and password same as above with an extra letter)
    3. Concierge.Apple.Com (with main email as username & main password)
    4. iCloud (with main email as username and different-again password)

    In the 1Password app I have:

    1. Apple (with main email as username and Concierge password - as 3 above). This also has www.icloud.com in the Website section. This also has the password from 4 above as a previously used password from 6 years ago…

    (Praying the formatting above sticks… if not, it's here https://kvak.io/j5h191dr2k76)

    What is going on? Can I delete any of these?? As far as I remember I use the password from 3 as my Apple Account login password (same as the one in 1Password - i.e. the iCloud password in Passwords is the password 1Password thinks is from 6 years ago.

    Have I made this too confusing?

    You can delete anything, as long as you know what the actual credentials
    are for the service.

    Concierge no longer exists, so that's an easy one.

    Apple Forums, discussions.apple.com, did used to have its own creds.
    That may be what "Apple Support" is for your records?

    What you use for Apple Support and iCloud now should be the same
    credentials. It's your Apple ID, or "Apple Account" as they renamed that
    to last year.
