    Hi @RTMxp! Welcome to the forum!

    What do you see exactly when you click on the 3 dots? Can you post a screenshot perhaps?

    i can get a screenshot but i can't post it. clicking on image icon in 'leave a comment' section doesn't seem to work. only emoji and url functions look like they work. clicking image icon only drops down a fuzzy gray line but no box to place image

    @RTMxp:

    Thank you for the screenshot! Your Private vault is automatically synced to 1Password.com, it cannot be synced through Dropbox. The same holds for your Shared vault, and any vault inside your 1Password account (automatic sync for your vaults is indeed one of the benefits of your 1Password account).

    Just so we can understand what you are trying to do, is there a specific reason why you are trying to enable a second sync method?

    i need backup. i thought dropbox would be good for backup. what does dropbox backup do anyway. doesn't sound like it does anything?

    if not dropbox, what is a good secure third party backup plan for my passwords?

    i can't make a standalone vault. maybe i should start there?

    Backups are taken automatically if you use a 1Password Membership:

    1Password backups

    Alternatively, you could also export your data yourself, but please be careful in this case, as the exported files would not be encrypted:
