Computer died. Need help migrating vault to new system.

I'm trying to figure out how to migrate my password vault to a new device (I use the standalone app). My main computer died (the hard drive data is ok) and I still have access to my passwords on my iPhone. Can I export the vault from my iPhone? Or are there specific files I should pull off my hard drive and copy over?

Thanks in advance!


1Password Version: desktop v6, ios v6.5.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: OS X, iOs
Sync Type: Dropbox

  • @crumford,

    If you're trying to get the passwords from your iPhone onto a new computer you could certainly use one of the built-in sync mechanisms to make that happen. Were you synchronizing your data before the HD failure?

    Yes, all the passwords are successfully synced to my iPhone via dropbox. If I'm following where you're going with this: install 1password on the new computer, sync the new device to the old dropbox folder and the new computer will merge vaults with the dropbox vault?

  • @crumford,

    Bingo!
