I bought iPassword 5 from website. I have a computer issue and Apple says reinstall the operation system but don't use migration assistant, so I need to manually install my apps. What file containing my passwords do I need to grab form my current system, and where do I need to put in my new system, in order for it too work in the new system?

    Take a look at this knowledge base article:

    Where does 1Password store its data?

    Hi @jtkjtkjtk,

    The link Stephen_C provided will supply everything you need.

    Essentially though the key folder is ~/Library/Application Support/1Password 4/ if you purchased 1Password for Mac via our AgileBits Store. That folder contains your backups, your vault in the form of a OnePassword.sqlite file and copying that entire folder over would mean only a few preferences requiring setting.

    Assuming it's possible at all though, creating a backup image of your existing hard drive using something like SuperDuper! would mean that no matter, you have a copy of everything. That way if you accidentally forget something it's still retrievable. That's just my personal recommendation but I'm a big fan of safety nets. Hopefully you don't ever need it but if you do it's there :smile:

    If you have further questions or need anything in more detail please do let us know and we'll do our best to help you out.
