Hello everyone!

I have been using 1Password for iOS for quite some time now, but only just purchased it for Mac OSX.

I decided to purchase the Mac OSX version because of the new vaults feature, as I think it can help me share passwords with my wife.
I plan on following the instructions here:

http://learn.agilebits.com/1Password4/Mac/en/Tutorials/share-vault.html

My 1Password is currently set up to sync over iCloud.
It seems that to make this work I need to switch to DropBox.

Will it be possible for me to have this sort of setup?

  • My iOS stuff syncing 1Password Primary Vault on my Dropbox account
  • My MacOSX account syncing 1Password Primary Vault on my Dropbox account
  • My wife's iOS stuff syncing one particular 1Password vault by accessing a shared Dropbox account that I create.
  • My wife's MacOSX account (same machine as me though) syncing one particular 1Password vault by accessing a shared Dropbox account that I create.

I hope I can do this... Also if so, how do I make the switch from iCloud to Dropbox sync? Would be great if I didn't have to, but since my wife and I share an iCloud account, I think I'm going to need to.

    Ah yes that makes sense. Sharing the Dropbox folder. So when my wife runs 1Password on the Mac, will it be possible for her to log directly into the shared into the Vault that I am sharing without unlocking the Primary Vault? How does that work? Will she also need the password to the Primary Vault?

    I want to be able to share some, but not all, of my logins.
