149 Items were exported but no 1P_import.1pif file created. Why? What can I do to correct this?
I ran the converter for my Lastpass export file. Here is what happened: The converted imported 162 cards. Exported 13 note items and exported 149 login items. There were no errors. The problem, however, is there was no 1P_import.1pif file on my Desktop or anywhere else. Why did this occur? What can I do to correct this? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi @mbjg0788 ,
If the convert_to_1p4 converter had no errors, the 1PIF file will be created on your Desktop by default. Some users have customized Window environments, and so it might be easier for you to re-run the converter and tell the converter exactly where you'd like the output file to be created.
You can add an additional command line option to specify the output file's name and location. For example, to place the output file as C:\1P_import.1pif, add the command line option:
--outfile C:\1P_import.1pif
to the end of the sequence you used.
It would be important to find that original 1PIF that was created, since it contains your private data in a non-encrypted form. You could do a Windows search for any files that end in .1pif, or that were created during the time frame, or that where named starting with "1P_import". Finally, you could re-run your original converter command in debug mode to verify the output path. Just add the
-doption, and you see output such as this:main : Command Line: lastpass -d -v ../../_TestFiles/lastpass_export_mac.csv main : Output file: /Users/MrC/Desktop/1P_import.1pif do_import : ROW: 1 do_import : type determined as 'login' print_record : title: joe user tags: Favorite; A Folder key(url): url = http://www.example.com key(password): password = secretpassword key(username): username = joe@example.com do_import : ROW: 2If the output is too lengthy, add this to the end of the command line:
| findstr main
to just show you the lines that contain the word mainL
% perl convert_to_1p4.pl lastpass ..\pm_export.csv -d -v | findstr main main : Command Line: lastpass ..\pm_export.csv -d -v main : Output file: C:\Users\MrC\Desktop\1P_import.1pif
By the way, the newer 1.06 version of the converter (available in the _testing folder) tells you exactly where the converter created the output file. Example:
You may now import the file /Users/MrC/Desktop/1P_import.1pif into 1Password

I ran the commands as you suggested and dos is telling me that the 1P_import.1pif file is found in my /Users/xxx/Desktop directory but when I look there and search there no such file exists. I even clicked on the option to view hidden files and searched for files beginning with 1P_import and ending with .1pif and found nothing. Can you please help solve this mystery? I would appreciate it.

Sure, I'm happy to help. Would you like some remote help? Or would you prefer help here?
If you want remote help, send me an email - my address is at the top of the convert_to_1p4.pl script. I'll send instructions and walk you through getting the file imported safely.

Remote help would be great. I am sorry I could not find your email address. Why don't we try the instructions first and if I fail then I will bug you for remote help. Thanks so much for your help. It is much appreciated.

P.S. I tried the --outfile C:\1P_import.1pif command but not .1pif file was found.

Wait a minute. I just found my file!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) Great. I am psyched. Hey you are the man. I take back my last comment. There was a .1pif file in my c:\ directory.
