Is MrC Converter Suite still available?
Hi, I see some references to this suite to assist with migrating to 1Password when searching for guidance on migrating from Keeper. Unfortunately, all the links I find are from the old support comm...
Hi Folks,
Sorry for the delay in responding; I'm just catching up from being out of town for the past two weeks, and getting used to the new forum.
The suite is still available in the same Dropbox location:

Before the forum conversion, I copied the content of the main thread. Now I need to decide how I want to replace the info that was contained on that page.
I'm here if you have any questions.
Hi, firstly I want to say thank you for all the work you have put into this converter.
I am however having an issue with the converter from mSecure 6 to 1Password 8. I can see the passwords in the exported csv file but it appears most of the passwords are missing after I have done the conversion and imported them (I'm using the helper on mac). Most other fields appear to be correct, username, website, notes are all there, just the passwords are missing for most of the logins. I have successfully used it before to move from an earlier version of mSecure, any ideas?
Hi GreasyWeasel
You're welcome.
I assume the issue is with the Login category. The last columns of a login record will be the URL, username and password. These are generally in the form of three vertical bar (aka pipe) separated values, like this:
Website|2|http://www.exmple.com,Username|7|joe@example.com,Password|8|supersecretsauceThe first thing in the tuple is the label, the second is an mSecure field type ID, and the third is the value. Do you see all three of these? Perhaps you can share a sanitized version of one Login record. The converter is expecting the label to be exactly "Password".
You can enable debug mode by adding the -d option, and that will reveal how fields are matched:
Finally, is your export from and conversion on macOS or Windows? The exports have slightly different formats.
Hi MrC
Thanks for the quick response.
I've looked in more detail based on your advice and it looks like it's missing the last field of any field type, so on Logins it is usually the password that is not being imported but it is there in the csv. But if there is another field after the password field then it will import the password but miss the field that is last on the line.
The export has been done on a Windows PC but I am performing the import on a Mac since the helper makes it easier.
I will continue to investigate further but I wanted to let you know that the issue in the last field on a line rather than just the password.

That's the issue. As I mentioned, the exports from mSecure for Windows are different than those from macOS. You'll have to perform the conversion on Windows.
MrCThank you for that, that was the issue and I've succesfully done the conversion on Windows now. All fields appear to have come across correctly this time.
Thank you very much for your time and support, it is much appreciated.
