WiFi Synching w/MBPro No Good

I am unable to wifi synch our iPhone 5 or our iPhone 6 to either of our 2 MacbookPros. No networks are seen via 1Password on the phones, even tho the phones are seeing the network and all other wifi works. Even synching 1PW to the cloud is not updating the iPhones when it supposedly merges. What to do to have 1Password synch again? It used to work perfectly. All IOS are the latest as are the OS on the MBPs. Same w/1Password. DOES NOT WANT TO SYNCH ANYMORE!

    @gsd: I am sorry you're having trouble with Wi-Fi Sync! 1Password does not actually manage Wi-Fi connections though; that is managed by the OS.

    Thanks for letting me know you're on the latest OSes though! That should make things much easier. First, keep in mind that Wi-Fi Sync will only work between a single computer and your iOS devices. If that is not going to work for you, Dropbox Sync may be a better option, as it can keep you're 1Password data up-to-date across all your devices in the background without you having to sync manually.

    But for trouble with Wi-Fi Sync, you can start by restarting the affected devices (at least the computer and one iOS device, to at least get the two of them sync'ing). If you have already done so and it has not made a difference, be sure to restart your Wi-Fi router as well, and ensure that both devices are connected to the same network. If you are using a firewall or security software on the computer, turn it off temporarily to see if that's what is blocking the connection. Just follow the Wi-Fi Sync guide, and if you are still having trouble be sure to include any errors you receive, or a description of exactly what happens (or doesn't happen) when you try to sync. I hope this helps! :)
