How do I do a bulk delete of my passwords after a failed import from LastPass?

carlwalter333

I have over 400 failed entries and am looking for a bulk delete option without deleting my entire account. Is there another option?

Hi there @carlwalter333

The instructions for this will depend on what device you're using 1Password with. I'll include the possibilities below, but if you need any further help, let me know what device you're using and I'll be able to tune my advice to that.

On a Mac, click All Items in the sidebar, then click one item in the list and press ⌘A (Command–A) to select all, then press ⌘⌫ (Command–Delete) to delete them.

On Windows or Linux, click All Items in the sidebar, then click one item in the list and press Ctrl+A to select all, then press Ctrl+Backspace to delete them.

Give that a try and let me know how you get on. I'll be here if you need further help. :)

I'll add... in case you happen to have multiple vaults, or have other items existing prior to the LastPass import, but sure you are selecting only the items you want deleted.

More than 1.5 years ago I tried to transition from LastPass to 1Password and was totally lost. So I let my account expire and never went back. Now I have reactivated my account and am trying to leave LastPass for 1Password and am LOST again. How do I delete all my data and start over? Passwords that are in 1P are old ones or erroneous. I have a couple of hundred sites labled simply "Login" with a little box to the left and are void. Along with a lot of my sites listed but many with out of date or non-working passwords.

The easiest way to manage items is using the Desktop apps, not the browser.

Download + Install 1Password 8 for Windows, and log into your account in the app. Then, see the comments here:

Hi Grey. Thank you for your help. When I follow the instructions for Win 10, I click on one item in the list, then ctrl+A nothing happens. I checked my version in Settings-Version I see I have version Version 2.5.1 I thought I downloaded the latest one version 8? What am I doing wrong? Thank you for your patience.

@BMat

Those instructions will work in the main 1Password apps, rather than 1Password in the browser. If you haven't already, download and install 1Password for your computer from here:

☞ 1Password – Downloads

Then you'll be able to use the keyboard shortcuts as shown.

Hi Grey - I did download the desktop version when I re-signed up. I was using the desktop version...the iPhone/i Pad mobile apps do not have CTRL-A does it? But it still does not work on desktop. I must be doing something wrong. Sorry to bug you.

@BMat,

It works like this... (I clicked an item, and typed Ctrl-A to Select All)

My screen is arranged differently which is probably why its not working for me. See screenshot attached and see what I am doing wrong or why I am not in the right place.

Hey @BMat !

You are using the browser extension, and the screenshot from @MrC is showing the desktop app. I think that such a bulk operation isn't possible in the browser extension.

BMat

AH! I did it! I deleted all of them. I will now try to download again from LastPass. THANK YOU!!!

BMat

And imported without a hitch! Thank you so much for your patience!

You're very welcome, @BMat ! Have fun!
