Hi @vjarpa,

Thanks for writing in.

The same way you did it on the first computer, install 1Password 7, double-click on your license file to register it and add your vault.

If you plan to sync, use the syncing tool to sync your 1Password vault to other computers. We recommend Dropbox if you haven't decided on which sync tool. Here's the instructions for Dropbox: https://support.1password.com/sync-with-dropbox/

Thanks for the advice, but because I am a Standalone License, I seem to be having a problem. I don't have a license to enter. I download password7 and it opens as read only. I enter my email address and master password but it wants more. This is very frustrating.

Hi @vjarpa,

Activating another copy of 1Password 7 and accessing your data in 1Password 7 on another computer are two different steps that you will need to make. Please try to do the following:

1) Sync your local vault via Dropbox in 1Password 7 on your first computer: https://support.1password.com/sync-with-dropbox

2) While setting up 1Password on your second computer, select Used 1Password before > Dropbox:

3) Activate your copy of 1Password 7 after that. Download your license file from the license email and double-click on your license file to register 1Password 7.

Let me know how it goes. Thank you!

Cheers,
Greg

My problem is How do I get to the point where you say "While setting up 1Password on your second computer". I can't get to the "Welcome" with a choice to Used 1password before with Dropbox.

@vjarpa: It is possible that you need to reset the database for 1Password 7 on this PC in order to start from scratch and see the welcome screen. Please try to do the following:

1. Open Windows File Explorer and enter the following in the address bar: %LOCALAPPDATA%\1Password
2. Rename data folder to backup-data
3. Open 1Password and check if you see the welcome screen, like the one I've shown above.

Thanks!
