The title says it all. Updated a credit card several weeks ago only to find that the other computer still has the old number.

  • Hi @dbahl

    Please try this for me:

    Add a secure note on each Mac, then login to 1PasswordAnywhere and see which, if either, note appears: http://learn.agilebits.com/1Password4/iOS/Tutorials/ios-1pa.html

    This will tell us which computer isn't working properly. The one who's note does not appear in 1PasswordAnywhere is the culprit, and we can troubleshoot from there.

    Thanks!

    I had the same problem.
    Two Mac Minis, Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.5, 1Password 4.1.3 Using Drop Box.
    Added Drop box sync on Mac Mini 1 with a note.
    Added Dropbox sync on Mac Mini 2, got the note from Mac Mini 1.
    Added Drop box sync on iPad Mini, got the note from Mac Mini 1.

    Edited note on Mac Mini 1: did NOT get the edited note on Mac Mini 2, DID get the edited note on the iPad Mini.

    I am sending a trouble report and referring to this thread.

    Hi Henry ( @hsmith40 ),

    I'm sorry you're having trouble with a change you made in 1Password on Mac Mini 1 not being synced with 1Password on Mac Mini 2. We've received your email and the Diagnostics Report from Mac Mini 2. Kris has replied asking if you could also send us one from Mac Mini 1 so we can see what the configuration looks like there, then continue following up with you through email to get this issue resolved. Thanks!

    (Edit: resolved in email; reinstalled 1P4 and Dropbox on Mac mini 2)

    As stated above, I completely removed and reinstalled 1Password 4 and Dropbox. The problem was resolved.
    It is now a pleasure to see 1Password 4 sync itself automatically between two Mac computers and an iPad.

    Thanks for the followup, Henry ( @hsmith40 ).

    That's excellent you've now got Dropbox syncing working smoothly with 1Password 4 everywhere and I hope it stays that way. :)
