Syncing Problems for MacBook
I have a Macbook with OS X Yosemite. I have been unable to sync my vault from my iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.3. I have combed through these discussion boards searching for an answer. I have tried everything suggested and still, when I go to sync over wifi, I can not find my computer from the iPhone App. I am also unable to check "run a wifi server from this mac." AgileBits team, can you please help me. I would like to sync my iPhone vault to my computer. Thanks.

Hi @maxywaxy06,
Certainly if you're unable to click on the checkbox to enable Wi-Fi Sync that would be the cause. Now why you're unable to do so is a much bigger question. The only way I can't alter that checkbox is if my vault is locked. As long as my vault is unlocked then I can modify the setting even if the Mac in question isn't connected to a network at all and the Wi-Fi system is turned off.
Can I just confirm, have you created a new, empty vault on your Mac and unlocked it prior to trying to enable Wi-Fi Sync? It probably sounds like a dumb question but it's the only state I can think of at the moment where you might see the preferences restricted on a working copy of 1Password.

Hi littlebobbytables,
I am not sure what you mean. I have downloaded 1Password from the website, and have opened it. I click the "I've used 1Password before" box. Do I need to click "Im new to 1Password" and create a brand new Vault?

I tried clicking I am New to 1Password, and doing it that way and it seemed to work for me. Thank you so much LittleBobbyTables for the assistance and the timely response!!
