My daughter forgot her master password and can't remember even with password hint. I have tried to start over following support instructions with an entirely new installation and vault, but the splash screen for 1password seems to demand the old password every time I reinstall the app on her mac. How can I start her over from scratch.

  • Hi @ksteuer

    From the 1Password 6 for Mac lock screen please select Help > Troubleshooting > Reset All 1Password Data. This will completely reset 1Password.

    Please let me know how it turns out.

    Excellent, thank you. That did correct the problem on her Mac! We added a password on her Mac and I believe we set up iCloud syncing with the new vault, but when she installed 1Password on her iPhone using the same iCloud credentials the vault appears empty. Any thoughts about that?

    For difficulty syncing via iCloud I'd recommend checking out our troubleshooting guide:

    I followed those notes. Everything is working for her again and she has a new appreciation for the MP. Thanks a LOT for helping me resolve this.
