Shared Dropbox vault is empty on WIndows side!

Options

I have been a long time 1Password user on the mac side. I keep my vault in a dropbox folder.

I just got a windows 8.1 Dell and bought a windows license. I point the vault to the same location in my Dropbox that my mac saves to. My windows prompts me for the password which works... but NOTHING is displayed at all.. empty vault. Mac side continues to be fine.

Any thoughts? did I just waste a windows license?

    Have you checked that the files in the Windows Dropbox folder actually match those on the Dropbox website?

    @neofactor Are you sure Dropbox Sync in 1Password for Mac is turned ON?

    Ahh Windows...
    Although the icon showed green... indicating that everything was synced for that folder... it in fact was NOT. After letting it sit overnight, all resolved.

    Thanks for your quick responses. I was hitting my head for a few hours there.

    Yes, it's confusing that the Dropbox icon is always green. The telltale marker is whether the tiny green badge is "chasing arrows" (syncing) or a check mark (up to date).
