Many of my passwords imported as 'Secure Notes'

Hey there,

I recently imported all my passwords from Lastpass. Most imported perfectly -- except, about 30 of my passwords were not input into 1Password as 'logins', but instead as 'Secure Notes'. Is there a way to convert these ones from Logins into Secure Notes?

Thanks
morgan

    Hi @morganf,

    See my response here.

    But better yet, this converter suite will more robustly handle your conversion.

    Thanks. Annoying that I need to re-import everything AGAIN. (I already re-imported it once because of the HTML symbol bug in the lastpass export). Grrrrr. Is there any way to run that script on just the 30 or so that have this problem, rather than my 600 passwords all again? Thanks.

    Hi @morganf,

    If you haven't made any changes to your imported records, select-all mass deletion, re-conversion, re-import is trivial. I do dozens a day! :-)

    Did you use my converter to perform the conversion, or did you use the native Lastpass import (or CSV)?

    I used the Lastpass native import.

    The problem is, due to the 1 week before which I realized these two problems (the HTML conversion problem breaking a lot of passwords, that I emailed you about last week) and then this problem today that a lot of them turned into notes not logins just today -- during this week, I changed a bunch of passwords already :(

    @morganf,

    I recalled the conversation, but didn't recall it being you - sorry! :-(

    Sorry, but I have another question, since I'm not sure what caused the incorrect classification of those few Login items to Secure Notes. Did those items happen to have one or more empty Username, Password, and/or URL fields?

    All of them say "NoteType: Wi-Fi Password". And looking at their names, they're all wifi networks. Therefore, there is no URL field. Does this help?

    @morgan,

    OK, good. The converter can selectively choose to process specific Input types and Output types, independently. So, you can tell the converter to process only the wireless input types. Ex:

    perl convert_to_1p4 lastpass -v --imptypes wireless path_to_lastpass_export_file

    The converter places LastPass wireless types into 1Password's wireless category.

    Example:

    perl convert_to_1p4.pl lastpass -v --imptypes wireless ../../_TestFiles/lastpass_export_mac.csv
    Imported 1 card
    Exported 1 wireless item
    Exported 1 total item
    You may now import the file /Users/cappella/Desktop/1P_import.1pif into 1Password
