1Password for Mac OS X/Windows/iOS Issues/Information Needed

SthrnDixieCwgrl · February 2013

I recently purchased the application for Mac OS X from Mac App Store and have also purchased the iOS version. I want to get the one for Windows, but could not find the information anywhere. How do I use iCloud to save the .agilekeychain file so that I can use the same logins that I have on Mac OS X and use them in 1Password for Windows and 1Password for iOS.

Hi @SthrnDixieCwgrl,

At the moment, iCloud is only available for iOS devices. A free 1Password 4 update to the MAS app is coming with the iCloud sync support. If you already enabled iCloud syncing in your iOS app, then you're all set when 1Password 4 for OS X is released.

However, since you're using 1Password on Windows, you'll need to switch over to Dropbox to sync your data with. Unfortunately, Apple restricts the iCloud data sync to their App Stores, so it's not possible to use iCloud sync on Windows. Only Dropbox can provide the cross-platform sync support.

To get started with Dropbox, I'd recommend reading this guide.

I hope that helps.

I need something that will work with ALL operating systems so I can be guaranteed my logins will be available with all operating systems.

Dropbox!

I use it with 1PW on Mac, Windows and iOS. Works great.

Anyone got a dummies guide for setting up 1Password so it will work with Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion/Windows/iOS without issues

I think if you set it up on your mac first, for instance, and use dropbox from the get go you would then:

Ensure you had dropbox configured on each subsequent device
Then install 1P and select to use dropbox as part of the initial setup
Done

That is how I would do it. Hope it helps.

Sounds good piecz

Make sure to allow the syncing to finish before trying to set it up on additional devices.

Could my files still be uploading ? hover over the Dropbox icon on your computer and look for a tool tip etc alt you can click the icon and look for details in the pop up.

Hi @sthrndixiecwgrl,

I'm glad it helped. The newer version of that guide for 1Password 4 for iOS is available here: http://learn.agilebits.com/1Password4/iOS/Sync/Dropbox/dropbox-all-1.html
