Did a clean install of Yosemite. Now 1Password has old data. Stopped sync with iPhone which has the current data to save them. How do I sync FROM iPhone TO iMac? Do not want iMac with it's out of date data to sync to the iPhone. If it does, I will loose all changes/additions. Thank you.


1Password Version: 5.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: OS X 10.4
Sync Type: Dropbox

    Hi,

    If you're using Dropbox for sync you could delete the "1Password.agilekeychain" (default) folder on Dropbox, re-enable sync on your iPhone to Dropbox ensuring the data you want is uploaded. Next follow this article and then this article to complete the process. This will result in a clean install of 1Password on your iMac with the same vault you currently have stored on your iPhone.

    Hi @Holt26,

    Everything JWeaver has said is correct and will ensure the vault on your iOS device is first copied to Dropbox and then onto a fresh copy of 1Password for Mac. It might also be worth checking Dropbox and seeing if you have multiple Agile Keychains present first though. Given you say you did a clean installation of Yosemite 1Password for Mac must have picked up the old data from somewhere so it might be you have more than one Agile Keychain present in Dropbox.

    Keep us updated as to how you get along :smile:

    Hello and thanks for the directions. I've run into something. I deleted the keychain and then enabled sync. I have two vaults. I selected the primary vault to sync, but then get this message: 1Password will no long sync because no sync source was found for profile. 1Password encountered a problem. More directions welcome.

    Hello again. Well, not exactly sure what I did, but went to 1Password on the iMac and selected a source and now it is syncing. I believe when the install happened the source was eliminated. But all is well now. Thank you both very, very much.
