in 1Password 3 – 7 for Mac

Strange thing just happened to me I've installed a new internal hard drive into my MacPro and installed Mavericks on it. I've migrated my files and user settings over from my Lion Hard drive. (not my applications)
Now when I switch back to my Lion drive and launch 1password it is looking for a data file, when I tell it to look in the application support folder for 1password that contains the backup it refuses to open the file?

    Hi @mmaller,

    I'm so sorry to hear you're having trouble with 1Password right now. I'd like to get just a bit more information to understand what is going on here.
    Using your browser please download a small standalone tool from us that will run a networked copy of our diagnostics tool.

    http://i.agilebits.com/kyle/tools/1Password_diagnostics.zip

    After the download is complete, use Finder to locate it. It should be in your downloads folder. If the file ends in .zip then your browser has not already unzipped it. Please double click it to expand it.

    The expanded file will have a "Unix Executable File" named 1Password_diagnostics. Double-clicking this will cause a Terminal window to open and download some files it needs. (Note: If you use OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, you may need to right click the file, choose Open, and click Open on the dialog).

    Once it completes it should open a window in your browser with the results. Please click File->Save As to save this file to your computer. Please save it as "Page Source" or "HTML" if there are options for this.

    If you do not get a report created, please copy and paste the output from the Terminal window so we can take a look at the errors that were created. This will help us figure out where the problem is in creating the diagnostics report.

    Then attach the entire file to an email to us: support+forum@ agilebits .com

    Please do not post your Diagnostics Report in the forums, but please do include a link to this thread in your email, along with your forum handle so that we can "connect the dots" when we see your Diagnostics Report in our inbox.

    Once we see the report we should be able to better assist you. Thanks in advance!
