Mac AND Win

I'm presently using 1Password 5, v 5.4.1 exclusively with Apple (MBA, IP6 S and an iPad). I'm fairly sure I have the paid edition although I don't remember the cost. I would now also like to use it with Windows 10 if it can sync both OS X, iOS and Windows 10 from a single user name/password data base. I see in the Pro edition for $5.99 I can have multiple vaults for Mac and Windows.

I think my 3 Mac access points sync with wifi. How would I sync it to include Windows 10? And is there a Windows 10 1Password app?


1Password Version: 5.4.1
Extension Version: 4.4.4
OS Version: 0S X 10.11.1 Windows 10
Sync Type: WiFi (I think)

    Hi @Starflyer!

    So, wi-fi sync works very well as (and was designed as) a server-client model, where you sync from one PC or Mac -> any number of mobile devices (iOS or Android). As soon as you add a second desktop Mac or PC to the mix, however, wi-fi sync alone is not an option, because it works only from desktop -> mobile, not mobile -> mobile or desktop -> desktop.

    If you're going cross-platform to encompass both Windows and Mac, you'll want to use Dropbox as your sync method. Instructions for that are here (Mac), here (Windows) and here (iOS).

    Let us know if you have any questions or run into any difficulties getting things set up.
