Hi,

I'm using icloud sync for syncing my vault between ios and mac. Now I want to sync with my Windows client and I don't want to use Dropbox.

I found a way - by using WLAN sync between IOS and Windows, but I have to change the sync mechanism and always do a full sync. Is there any other (easier) way to do this ?

Regards
Michael

    On Windows, Apple supports iCloud Drive. Unfortunately, our Mac and iOS apps aren't using iCloud Drive. They are using CloudKit.

    Here are your options:

    1. On Mac, change the sync settings from iCloud to Folder Sync. Then point Folder Sync to your iCloud Drive. This allows you to sync your Mac and Windows PCs via iCloud Drive. Then use Wi-Fi Sync on Mac (or Windows) and sync your vault with your iOS device(s).
    2. Use Dropbox everywhere (Mac and Windows and iOS).

    Ok thanks, this isn't a perfect solution - but it's a little bit easier ;)

    As noted in the Syncing your 1Password data article in the 1Password 4 for Windows user's guide, our options are limited by Apple's change in their cloud-sync technology.
