Switching to Wifi Sync from iCloud Sync

I have been syncing my 1Password vault on my MacBook, iPhone, and iPad with iCloud and would like to switch to Wifi sync on my home network. When I went to turn off iCloud syncing I was notified that all my data would be deleted. Will I need to enter everything again from scratch if I turn off iCloud syncing? What steps do I need to take to make the change without loosing everything I've entered over the last year?

    Hi @MacDagni,

    Don't worry, you will not lose all your data by disabling iCloud syncing! In 1Password 4, your data is always stored locally. When you choose to sync via Dropbox, iCloud or Folder Sync, a copy of your datafile is made and synced to the appropriate location. Disabling iCloud will only delete the copy of your data stored in iCloud. :)

    I hope this helps, but we're here if you have any further questions!
