How do I add a 1P individual account to 1Password for Mac

I bought a new Mac and downloaded the 1P app from the Apple App Store and installed it.

I added my credentials for my 1P for Teams. No problem there.

I also need to add my 1P account to get my primary vault that syncs via Dropbox. I don't see how to add this. How can I do this?

I don't use 1P for Families.

    Hey @michaeltdoan! Sorry for the confusion. You can add your Dropbox vault by first enabling local vaults in 1Password for Mac. Since you started using the app with an account, these are disabled by default. To enable them:

    1. Open and unlock 1Password.
    2. Choose 1Password -> Preferences from the menu bar, then click Advanced.
    3. Check the "Allow creation of vaults outside of 1Password accounts" box and enter your Master Password when prompted.

    Now you can sync the newly-created Primary vault with Dropbox by clicking the Sync tab inside 1Password's preferences. Learn more about syncing with Dropbox. Hope that helps! :)
