The only [i]sync'ing[/i] option available in 1Password for Windows is Dropbox, as described in the following documents.

If you just want to [i]copy[/i] your 1Password data from one computer to another—[i]not recommended[/i] for regular practice:[list=1]

[*]Delete the existing [i]1Password.agilekeychain[/i] folder on the target computer. Items in the [i]1Password.agilekeychain[/i] folder should not be merged (which is Windows' default behavior when copying folders.)

[*]Copy the entire [i]1Password.agilekeychain[/i] folder fro the source computer to the target computer.

[/list]

[b]Caution:[/b] Copying is not the same as sync'ing. If you add a Login or other item in one copy, and you add another Login or other item in the other copy, then copy the [i]1Password.agilekeychain[/i] folder from one machine to another, you will lose the item that was created on the target machine.
