Forgot masterpassword
I recently reset the masterpassword and forgot the new password. Is there a way for me to recover the password?
I've all other details i.e. sign in address, e-mail and secretkey.
Please advice as all of my information is stored in and I can't access it. I've been using 1 password for more than 5 years now.
Can I use old old backup with old master password. I remember my old master password.
I also e-mailed but didn't heard anything.

Hi @spanzade
Is there another administrator / organizer on your membership? If so they can help you recover:
Recover accounts for family or team members
If not, it is not possible to recover or reset the Master Password. In that case please see this thread for instructions:

P.S. I'm sorry about the delay. We typically try to respond to all inquiries within 24 hours, but lately due to volume it has been averaging closer to 48-72 hrs. Now that we've got a dialogue going here I'm going to close your email ticket to avoid duplicating efforts.

Thank you Ben!! appreciate your help!
I was able to login to 1password on an apple device (phone) using old masterpassword, but when I'm using the old masterpassword to reset using the app, it is giving me error.
I'm unable to login to 1password.com using the old masterpassword. what are my options?Can I add a new member or export all the data and startover?

If you are referring to 1password login item: Yes, it does but when I reveal, it clears of the field, also tried to copy and paste didn't work.

If you tap on the password field and tap Large Type does that reveal the password? If not does looking under Previously Used Passwords on that item give any hints?

Happy Friday!
I'm just seeing 2 options (copy & reveal) and it doesn't show previously used password options.
Is there a way I can export all logins or add a new user to this account or change the masterpassword?0 -
To be clear: you don't see either of these options?
What version of 1Password for iOS do you have installed? You can check on the Settings screen, at the bottom.

Not without the correct current Master Password. What you may be able to do is sign up for a new 1Password membership, add that account to your iPhone, and then copy your data from its current location into that new membership.

Correct. I can't see both ('Show in large type' and 'Previously used passwords')
1password iOS version: 7.2.7
can you share the steps for adding a new account and copy your data from its location into the new membership please?

@spanzade: That's the version of 1Password, but what version of iOS is your iPhone using? And what is the display scaling/text size set to?
In order to setup the 1Password app with your membership account on any device, you just need to sign into it:
https://support.1password.com/add-account/
From there you can copy items between vaults:
https://support.1password.com/move-copy-items/
Let me know how you get along!

Oh!
OS: 12.1.4
I think the idea of copy items won't work as it requires me to login to 1password.com when I don't know the masterpassword, old password doesn't work. Please suggest.
See below steps from: https://support.1password.com/add-account/
In your browser, sign in to your account on 1Password.com.
Select your account name in the top right and choose Get the Apps.
Open and unlock 1Password, then choose Accounts > “Sign in to another account0 -
Correct. I can't see both ('Show in large type' and 'Previously used passwords')
Could you please send us a screenshot of what you do see?
- Open the Login item for 1Password.com
- Hold your finger on the password field
- Take a screenshot of what you see (instructions below)
- Email that screenshot to
support+forum@1password.com - When you email in you'll get a support ID from BitBot. Please post that ID here. It may take a couple minutes for your email to be processed and the ID to be generated, but if you've sent the message and haven't received a message back within 15 minutes please let me know.

The idea is to sign up for a new 1Password account, sign in to that account on iOS, and then move all of your data into the vault(s) in that new account. I'd prefer to hold off on that until we verify that you won't be able to recover the Master Password for your current account, as that would be a lot less work for you. :)
