I'm using 1password for Mac.
I bought new windows PC
and installed 1password.
I created new vault and tried to sync data.
But I don't know how to do it.

Hi @noprops,

Based on your answer to Sync Type, it sounds like you're willing to use Dropbox. If that's the case, here's what you need to do:

1. First, install Dropbox on both computers, you can download the client from here: https://www.dropbox.com (Do not download Dropbox from the Windows Store on your PC).
2. Once you're logged in with the same Dropbox account on both computers, start with configuring 1Password on the Mac first to push your data to Dropbox with this guide: https://support.1password.com/guides/mac/sync-dropbox.html
3. Wait for Dropbox to finish its sync on the Mac before you switch to the PC, you'll see a green checkmark on the Dropbox icon in the top menu bar. Once you see it, wait for the same checkmark on your PC to ensure Dropbox finished downloading all of the files from your Mac
4. Now, open 1Password, it should prompt to ask if you want to use the vault found in Dropbox and if yes, select that. If not, go to File Menu > Open 1Password Vault and go to this directory: Dropbox folder > Apps > 1Password, select 1Password.agilekeychain
5. You should now see the lock view, unlock it with the same master password that you use on Mac.

Now, try to test the sync by making some changes and see if they show up on both computers.
