can I use the same login from my iphone 6 app for the desktop version I just downloaded?
I have the 1Passwrod app on my iPhone 6. I need to switch to a new iPhone 6 and don't want to lose all my passwords in my 1Password app. I downloaded the desktop version but don't see how to access my account. The option it gives me for "I have used 1Password before" seems to be just on my laptop's programs. Can I access my phone's info from desktop version?

@tep8764 Have you set up syncing in 1Password 5 for iOS on your iPhone 6? If not, then you will need to setup Dropbox syncing on the iOS side first. Then you can setup Dropbox syncing in 1Password 5 for Mac and point it to the same 1Password.agilekeychain data file that you just put in Dropbox via syncing the iOS app. This will get your 1Password data from your iPhone to your Mac.
One your new iPhone 6, simply install 1Password 5 for iOS and run it for the first time. You will see a welcome screen where you choose you have used 1Password before, then choose Dropbox syncing.
You don't have to sync to the Mac if you will have both iPhones available and can verify that the data gets sync'd from one phone to another.

I have a PC, not a Mac....does that make a difference?

@tep8764: Not a significant difference. Things are cosmetically different between the different versions of 1Password, but Dropbox Sync is supported by all current versions of 1Password across all platforms:

The best thing to do is set up Dropbox Sync in 1Password for iOS first (since that's where your data is), and then you can set it up on your PC as well to keep the two in sync going forward. And be sure to save a backup of your data before changing iPhones -- just in case. I hope this helps! :)
