If you have multiple vaults and you're syncing with Dropbox to your mobile devices, do not enable the sync for other vaults other than the primary one yet.

Can someone on the Agile team PLEASE explain HOW to do this. For everyone who has upgraded to all the new versions on both the iOS and OS X sides, it is NOT CLEAR how to launch 1Password on an iOS device and tell it "Go find the Dropbox file that my OS X Macs are using and sync to THAT instead of creating a new, DIVERGENT database (vault)."

Please, Agile, we NEED this explained to us like we are 5.

Thanks.

    Hi @sandysantra,

    The iOS app does not have the capacity of selecting a specific vault nor open a file system to let you pick a specific vault. That's why we're saying not to enable sync for the other vaults on the Mac itself, there's nothing further to do.

    In 1Password 4, each vault have their own sync settings. So, if you never switched to secondary vaults and went to the 1Password Menu > Preferences > Sync for them, then you're all set. You just have to not enable the Dropbox sync until we release a major free update to 1Password 4 for iOS to support multiple vaults.
