Do I have to purchase 1Password again on new Ipad?
Hi,
I have bought a new Ipad air with IOS 7 and downloaded the old 1password app (pro version?)
When I try to sync it says I have to enter a secret code on my Mac, but I have a Windows PC.
When I look in the app store for 1Password version 4, I have to purchase this.
Is this correct? Do I have to purchase it again?
Best regards,
Twan

Hi @Twan_21,
I'm sorry that you're having trouble with 1Password right now! Unfortunately, due to a recent change in Dropbox's API, there is currently no way to sync 1Password 3 for iOS with 1Password for Windows. We've written a blog post that should answer most of your questions here: http://blog.agilebits.com/2013/08/08/1password-3-dropbox-sync-faq/
But, the basic gist of things is this: due to these changes, 1Password 3 for iOS can no longer sync via Dropbox. Our new version is 1Password 4 for iOS has been built to work with Dropbox's latest and greatest sync technology. 1Password 4 for iOS has been for sale in the iTunes store since December, as a separate purchase from version 3 (the "old" and still supported version). We did this because it's basically an entirely new application, built bigger, better, faster, and stronger. It is also a universal app now, meaning you only require one purchase for all your iDevices associated with your Apple ID, using iOS 6 or greater. If the iOS device(s) you want to run 1Password on are running iOS 6+, the best solution is to move to 1Password 4 for iOS.
You can check out 1Password 4 for iOS in the App Store:
Once installed, just open 1Password 4 for iOS, tap that you have used 1Password before, then tap Sync with Dropbox.
If you just need a way to backup your data to a Mac or PC for safe keeping, 1Password 3 for iOS has a nifty Backup & Restore option. 1Password can create an encrypted backup of your data file, and you can use a browser on a Mac or PC to copy that file to a place for safe keeping. Here’s our guide to get started with that:
