I have 1PW5 on a TimeMachine backup. What specific files must I retrieve to re-install 1PW5?

Had 1PW5 on an old MBP. Replaced with a new 13" MBP on which I installed 1PW5 and used it. When I updated the new MBP to El Capitan and updated my iPad mini Retina and iPhone6 to iOS 9 everything went wonky. Took all three machines to the Apple Store and had diagnostics run, all three machines had good hardware checks. I had all three machines wiped and a clean install of the respective OSes done. I have since been doing clean re-installs of every bit of Apple and non-Apple software previously on my new MBP. Idea being to start fresh without the cruft and corruption built-up in my systems since Leopard.

I now wish to install 1Password 5 and retrieve from a TimeMachine backup those files necessary to resume use of the scores of passwords and other data stored in 1Password over the years. What are the specific files I must retrieve or the procedure I must follow?


1Password Version: 5.0.1
Extension Version: ??
OS Version: 10.11
Sync Type: iTunes (I think)

    This knowledge base article will help you:

    Where does 1Password store its data?

    It's important to note the differences between the Mac App Store version of 1P and the AgileBits store version of 1P, so you need to know which version you had when you made the backup.
