Tried to import an old .agilekeychain but it failed and now I'm stuck

After updating to 1P7 I tried to link my existing .agilekeychain file that exists on my machine but it wouldn't allow me. Now it somehow connected to some random vault and I am not able to log into it or do anything else for that matter?

Should I just uninstall and start over?

    Well I was able to fix this issue by force closing the application via the Activity Monitor, but now I have a new problem.

    When I attempt to select a data file from my machine it says that it is looking for a .opvault but I only have a .agilekeychain

    Welcome to the forum, @johnriordan! Sorry about the trouble getting transitioned. 1Password 7 no longer syncs the Agile Keychain format. If you had any vaults in previous versions of 1Password syncing via the Agile Keychain format, then when you install 1Password 7, you should have been notified. 1Password 7 should then import your Agile Keychains and offer to sync your data using the newer OPVault format. You’ll get a choice of where to place the new OPVault - the default is in the same Dropbox folder as your Agile Keychain. After writing out the new keychain, you’ll need to switch all other 1Password apps to the new OPVault keychain instead of the older Agile Keychain.

    If that's not what happened, would you mind telling me what the state of things is now? How many vaults did you previously have in an earlier version of 1Password? And what version are you upgrading from? When you open 1Password 7 now, what do you see?

    I was never prompted to convert my agilekeychain to opvault. The 1P7 install went pretty standardly and upon completion the old 1p (dunno what version) was replaced with 7. Now I'm left with a fresh install of 7 and my old agilekeychain that I'm unable to pick up from.

    When I open 1Password 7 now I just get the standard Welcome/Setup stage.

    @johnriordan can you be a bit more specific? What do you mean when you say "standard Welcome/Setup stage?" These pages and workflows have changed from version to version, so I don't want to assume anything in particular. Is this the screen you see?

    @Lars Correct, that is the exact screen I see.

    @johnriordan - OK, thanks for confirming. Please follow the instructions in this post of mine (start after the first image you see - the one that looks like this one). Let me know how that works for you.
