I just bought a new mac. I'm trying to get my 1Password vault onto the new machine via wifi sync. Apparently I can't sync from mac to mac so I'm trying to sync the new machine with my iPhone. The old computer is offline. But when I hit sync on my iphone, it says "Computer not found." Both devices are most certainly on the same wifi network.
Do I have to delete 1Password from the old mac before this will work? Thoughts?
Thanks,
Josh

    Please try rebooting:

    1. your Mac and your phone; and, if that doesn't work
    2. your router.

    (Incidentally, you'll find an upgrade to OS X 10.10.4 or 10.10.5 will give you fewer problems with wifi sync.)

    I had to turn sync service off and then back on on the iPhone. Then it all worked. Thanks for your help!
