I removed the extension from Google Chrome. I created a new vault ... restored an old backup that clearly shows it has info (337 items). Yet nothing happens when it reboots. HELP!! I cannot get to my passwords!

Hi @BSBecker,
I'm so sorry to hear that you're having trouble updating to 1Password 4. If you have an old backup from 1Password 3 that you would like to install into 1Password 4, here's what you'll need to do:
- Choose your most recent
1Password _insert date here.agilekeychain_zipfile - In Finder, change the name to
1Password.agilekeychain.zip - Unzip the file
- This will create a 1Password.agilekeychain
- Move this file to your desktop, or some other memorable location
- Open your empty vault in 1Password
- Go to Preferences > Sync and select Folder Sync
- Find the 1Password.agilekeychain file on your desktop and select it.
- 1Password will prompt you for the Master Password that you used for that keychain in 1Password 3.
- Enter it to import the data into your empty vault.
I hope this gets you all sorted out, but if you have any further questions, we're here for you!

I created a new vault - with hopes of bringing it in, but no such luck. If I recall back, I found backups -- now i would need to download a zip file from Backblaze. Please help. Wish there was telephone suppport :(

Hi @BSBecker,
I'm so sorry to hear that you're still having trouble! Now, we are able to offer telephone support, but we've found that most issues can be resolved efficiently via email. Whichever course is best for you, we'll need to start by taking a closer look at your system here to determine where things are getting tangled up. Could you please send us a Diagnostics Report?
http://learn2.agilebits.com/1Password4/diagnostic-report.html
(Please be sure to select the tab that corresponds to the version of 1Password you have installed currently)
Then attach the entire file to an email to us: support+forum@ agilebits .com
Please do not post your Diagnostics Report in the forums, but please do include a link to this thread in your email, along with your forum handle so that we can "connect the dots" when we see your Diagnostics Report in our inbox.
A short note here once you've sent the Report in will help us to keep an eye out for it. :)
Once we see the report we should be able to better assist you. Thanks in advance!

Resolved issue on my own. While I created a new vault - and had no success. Tonight I double clicked on the old keychain I had saved and I was able to go into the preferences - changed the vault location and merged. Have everything now. Whew... that was simple yet not spelled out anywhere.

Hi @BSBecker,
I'm really glad to hear you've been able to resolve this issue and can access your 1Password data again! I wish this had been a more straightforward process for you and will pass along your feedback for it to be made clearer.
If there's anything else we can help you with please don't hesitate to ask!

This is very frustrating. There are so many posts on this same problem, but I cannot find a solution, only suggestions from Agilebits to send in a diagnostic report. If so many people are having this problem, wouldn't be a good idea to post a solution rather than having everyone send in their diagnostic report. Better yet, since I see posts nearly a year old, shouldn't Agilebits correct the problem? Sorry if this seems a bit harsh, but my frustration level is a bit high right now. This is a great product, but... arrrrgh.

Hi @vistaclara.
Thanks for taking the time to contact us. I'm sorry that you are having some trouble as well. Although this thread is not a year old — the most recent post was just two months ago — we do take every problem very seriously.
In this case, there has not been a consistently reproducible issue, so we've needed to help folks on a one-on-one basis. I completely understand your frustration, but it will genuinely help us to get a Diagnostics Report from your specific Mac since every configuration is different.
So we can give you some specific (and hopefully easy) instructions, could you please email us a Diagnostics Report from your Mac, along with your forum username and a link to this discussion, to: support+forum@agilebits.com
Just to make sure we are on the same page, can you be sure to include a specific description of your problem in the email? If there is any variation from what was reported months ago by a different user on a different Mac it could really help us narrow down the issue in your particular case.
A brief comment here mentioning that you've sent the report would also be helpful. Thanks in advance! I'm sure we'll get things sorted out for you without too much more trouble. :)
