can't set up existing 1password account with new ipad pro and dropbox sync
Trying to add 1password my new iPad Pro. I already have other iPads, iPhones, and Macs running 1Password. It askes me to enter secret code. But I can't find it. When I follow instruction to find secret key, I end back where I started. When I follow instructions to have 1Password email me my secret key, it emails only the first 8 characters. Not helpful!
Other suggestions here state to just set up the iPad with my iCloud syncing link. But I don't use iCloud. I use Dropbox on all our devices. The app setup process does not list dropbox sync, only iCloud.
I'd like to use my new iPad today. Any suggestions???

Sorry. No response yet. My fault, I see I should have provided version info.
1Password Version: 7.0.3 as downloaded from the App store to my new iPad Pro 10.5"
Extension Version: none I think. Are there extensions for ios versions?
OS version: 11.2
Sync Type: Dropbox ...The new ios app does not provide an option for Dropbox link, only iCloud
Referrer: I searched the forums for 'can't find secret key'. It appears I must have what is called a family license0 -
To clarify my last statement: I'm sure I have a family license but there seems to be no way to tell the new ios app about this.
Okay, been trying lots of things tod
Lastly, I copied my 1Password vault from Dropbox to iCloud hoping that now I could use the iCloud option when I open 1Password on the iPad. No joy. 1Password reports there is no 1Password vault on icloud. So I though maybe I need to upgrade to iCloud drive (I didn't want to) so I did. Still 1Password does not see my copied Dropbox vault there. Does anyone have any ideas? What am I missing?0 -
@1Password replied to my tweet for help. Problem solved. The 1Password window that opens on the iPad with the 2nd and (supposedly last) option to sync with iCloud ....it is a SCROLLABLE WINDOW! Scrolling down there are more options, one of which was my beloved Dropbox sync! I feel so stupid. Thank you, 1Password team!

Sorry about that. We ran out of room. :blush:
I'm glad that you were able to get things sorted out. It sounds like you should be all set, but we're here (and on Twitter) if you need anything else. :)
