Recover 1Password database from backup

mattido

Some corruption on my windows PC has screwed up my 1Password database on all my devices. How can I recover it on my Mac? I attempted to copy all the 1Password folders from ~/Library/Containers on my Carbon Copy Cloner backup, but it's still not showing my lost data.

Hi @mattido

I'm sorry to hear about the trouble with your Windows PC. I believe this is the folder you're looking for:

~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.agilebits/

Please let me know how it turns out. :)

Didn't have any luck. I copied that folder from my CCC backup and it didn't make a difference. I did manage to get MOST of my data back, but not all (Documents). I fortunately did an export of each vault before connecting my Mac to the internet. It sure would be nice to have other categories as exportable, not just notes and logins. Wish I had known that before stuffing important information in the Documents section.

Did you quit 1Password completely first, while disconnected from the internet, before attempting to restore the folder? You can do so using ⌘⌥⌃Q (Command Option Control Q).

Yes

Gotcha. Thanks for the feedback. Hopefully in the future we'll be able to offer more robust options in this regard.
