QR code turned off?
Dave - I now realize that setting up 2FA was considerably more complicated that I thought requiring that I go to each site and follow different - and in some cases not very clear - instructions for setting this up. I give up, but thank you for help.
When, on 1P, I went to a site which was identified as offering 2FA, I clicked on [Learn how to turn on 2FA] this took me to the account where I found the individual instructions. I mistakenly believed by clicking on the [Scan QR code] in 1P, I was going to be presented with a QR code that would simplify the whole process, but I now understand such is not the case.
Again, appreciated your help.
You're right that each website will have a slightly different process for setting up 2FA just like they have a slightly different process for changing passwords. Once you go through a website's specific process and the website presents the QR code, 1Password will be there to scan that QR code and save your one-time password.
You can find a directory that links to instructions for different websites here: https://2fa.directory/
Let me know if there's anything else that I can help you with for now.
