    Hi @Romsdale,

    I'm really sorry to hear that you're having this issue. The good news is that you were right : you can tell 1Password that you're new and would like to sync with an existing vault after the fact. To do so, you need to go to the 1Password > Preferences... menu item. Then go to the Sync tab. You should be able to select your Primary vault on the left, then indicate that you'd like to sync via Dropbox on the right. It'll ask you to go select the agilekeychain file in your dropbox. Do so, and you should be set.

    Let us know how that works out. Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Rick
