Setting up 1Password on my iphone

dc

I bought a 1password mac+windows bundle in 2015. Everything works fine between my mac and windows computer. Now I am trying to add 1password to my iPhone. The problem I am running into is that it requires a "secret key." Do I have a secret key? I have a license key, from the original purchase. And I have a password.

All I really want to know is how to link my iphone to my existing 1pw account. Thanks for any help.

1Password Version: 6.8.4
Extension Version: 4.6.12.90
OS Version: OS Sierra 10.12.6
Sync Type: I have no idea

@dc: If you have a license for 1Password and no 1Password membership, you won't have a Secret Key. You will need to know your sync type to set up the iPhone, however. Since you're syncing a Mac and a PC, I suspect you'll be using Dropbox, but you can check in your sync settings to be sure: Choose 1Password menu > Preferences in 1Password for Mac, then click the Sync tab. Your selected sync method will be displayed here.

Back on your iPhone, tap the this sync option on the Welcome screen (you may need to tap the back arrow and scroll down a bit if you're seeing the Secret Key screen), and follow the on-screen instructions to authorize 1Password to access your sync service and unlock your vault. :+1:
