I have followed every step on your website... iCloud Sync is not appearing as an option! Help?
I have been using 1password with Dropbox sync for a while. I want to switch to iCloud sync now. I've done everything... I'm in Mac 1Password preferences... Sync... I see the dropdown that currently says DROPBOX. When I click, the only options are NONE, FOLDER, DROPBOX. I've tried disabling Dropbox first... still nothing appears. YES I am quite logged into iCloud and YES I have iCLOUD DRIVE checked. And in those Options, there is even a 1Password.mini that IS checked. Please advise.
1Password Version: 5.3.2
Extension Version: 4.4.2
OS Version: OS X 10.10.4
Sync Type: Dropbox to iCloud

It may be helpful to take a look at this knowledge base article:
Troubleshooting iCloud sync issues
However, one thing is clear from your post. You are using the the AgileBits store version of 1P which does not support iCloud sync (as opposed to the Mac App Store version)—so that's likely to be the key problem. See also this knowledge base article:
I do not see the option to sync with iCloud in 1Password for Mac

@aleklev: Indeed, only the version of 1Password from the Mac App Store supports iCloud Sync, otherwise the AgileBits Store version is identical. Apple simply does not allow apps purchased outside of their stores to use iCloud.
However, syncing with Dropbox is an excellent (and free!) choice. It's how I prefer to sync my 1Password data. And your 1Password data is end-to-end encrypted, so 1Password simply doesn't depend on the sync service to protect your data. 1Password is secure by design, not by chance.
So while you won't be able to use iCloud sync with your copy of 1Password, that certainly isn't your only option.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions! :)
