If you are looking to view your Keychain passwords, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access.
  2. Enter your admin username and password.
  3. In the Keychain Access app, you can see a list of items on the left panel.
  4. Select 'Passwords' from the Category section.
  5. You will see a list of websites, applications, and other items for which passwords are saved.
  6. Double-click on the item for which you want to view the password.
  7. A new window will open showing the details of that item, including the password. If the password is hidden, you may have to check 'Show Password' and enter your login keychain password.

It is essential to maintain the security of your Keychain passwords by setting up a strong password for your login keychain and enabling two-factor authentication wherever possible.
