Question about WiFi Sync.

dannyt

I'm glad you guys finally did wifi sync with attachments, thank you. What I'm trying to find out is if there is anyway to make the sync non 2-way. What I mean by that is I only want my main computer to be able to add or change anything. What I don't want is any changes made on my iPhone to sync over to the main computer. They reason why is because it is too easy to accidentally change stuff on the phone and probably not realize it. If that is not currently possible would you consider that as an upgrade in the future to where you can choose to have changes done by master computer only or for those that want it, 2-way?

While it would be a bit of a pain, if you were to reset 1Password each time before you wanted to sync (assuming you don't want to do that too often), that would mean nothing would be sent from the iOS device to the computer.

I rather like @dannyt‌'s idea because I only ever make changes on my Mac and never on my iPad or iPhone. @littlebobbytables‌, as so often, has a very sensible work-around but, as he says implies, there could be a simpler solution.

Yes, I would like to see one-way sync too. In other words, the 1password data on the Mac always overwrites whatever is on the ios device. I was hoping that they would finally enable the Restore from Mac 1Password backup feature (as replacement for "syncing" with iTunes file sharing in past versions) and that would be the one-way "sync" solution, but it seems to be still not functional.

Hi @ladillex‌ and @‌Jenny

I've merged a few threads together here, as we're all talking about the same thing.

(@ladillex‌ I think we may have discussed this in a previous thread as well, but I'll include the answer here again, just in case I'm losing my marbles.)

Syncing attachments through Wi-Fi is a new feature that has been added to 1Password 5. While general Wi-Fi sync will work between 1Password 4 for Mac and 1Password 5 for iOS, syncing attachments this way requires 1Password 5 on both platforms. We are continuing development of 1Password 5 for Mac as we speak, as we know this is a popular request for our users.

If you would like to sync your attachments, you will need to use Dropbox sync:

Hi @dannyt, @Stephen_C‌ and @duelist77‌,

Thanks so much for your feedback here! At this time, it is not possible to make sync one-way (except using @littlebobbytables‌ workaround of removing the iOS data prior to a sync.) I'll be happy to mention to our developers that you'd like to see this option in the future. For now, I sincerely hope that the updates we've already made to Wi-Fi sync make your life a bit easier.

I was hoping that they would finally enable the Restore from Mac 1Password backup feature (as replacement for "syncing" with iTunes file sharing in past versions) and that would be the one-way "sync" solution, but it seems to be still not functional.

Our developers are working on getting this done as soon as possible! :)
