how can I transfer the 1password data from my mac to my work PC? i can't use dropbox (firewalls, etc), so need to transfer the data as files. I've tried transferring the data and backup data direct, but the pc version won't recognize the data files.

    Same issue here.

    Maybe you could use folder sync (which will keep an up to date keychain from 1P4 in the folder of your choice) and then transfer the keychain to the PC. (I'm assuming PCs read the keychain format: I don't have one to check!)

    Hi @tfrechette and @jdonnici,

    Both Dropbox and Folder Sync will store your 1Password data in a format that can be read by 1Password for Windows. If you are unable to transfer your data directly using Dropbox, @Stephen_C is right, your best option is to use Folder Sync. Enable Folder Sync to save your datafile to a specific location (in this case, you could save it to a portable USB drive). Then simply plug the USB drive into your PC and transfer the 1Password.agilekeychain to your Windows machine.
