Syncing using dropbox problems..
Hello and merry Xmas!
I bought my dad 1pw for Mac and pc for a present. I'be synced via dropbox on his mac and phone but it seems the windows 8 dropbox app doesn't store it'd files locally - how can i sync using Dropbox in this case?
Many thanks
Nick

Hi Nick and Merry Christmas!
The Dropbox app, if installed correctly, will store files locally.
Here's our Dropbox sync guide for 1Password 4 for Windows: https://guides.agilebits.com/1password-windows/4/en/topic/setting-up-dropbox-sync
I think you'll find all necessary information in it.As an aside:
Unlike the Mac and iOS versions, 1Password 4 for Windows simply accesses the 1Password.agilekeychain stored in the Dropbox. So once the 1Password database has been synced to your father's PC, he can access it using the 'File' item in 1Password menu.0 -
@nickholl Are you running the Dropbox RT app in the modern environment, or the Dropbox tray icon in the desktop environment? 1Password for Windows needs the latter. https://dropbox.com/download
