Hi @ursgerber,
Normally when there are two instances of 1Password data in iCloud it is the current data and the old data from people that used to use iCloud Sync in 1Password 4 (before iCloud Drive). 1Password doesn't get confused though as one can only be accessed via the CloudKit framework - the other is from the iCloud Drive migration.
If you want to clear the iCloud data this would be my personal preference on the steps.
- On both of your iOS devices launch 1Password and go to Settings > Sync > Sync Service > Disable Sync.
- On your Mac launch 1Password and use the menu option Help > Troubleshooting > Reset iCloud Data. This will safely delete the active iCloud sync container.
- Enter System Preferences > iCloud and delete the other entry for 1Password. This will delete the obsolete iCloud sync container.
- Re-enable iCloud Sync first on your Mac and then your iOS devices.
We should have a bug fixed in 1Password 5.4 for Mac but this sequence of steps avoids the issue anyway. After you restart iCloud Sync everywhere you should find only a single instance of 1Password data in iCloud. Let us know how you get along :smile:
