Assuming that’s the case, you’ll just go straight to a request for access:
Tap on “Sync existing vault” and you’ll have some options:Īt this point you’ll want to already have Dropbox installed on your iOS device and logged in. Time to switch to the iPhone or iPad. Launch 1Password for iOS and sicne it’s the first time you’ve launched it, you’ll see something like this: That all looks good, and the most important thing is that it has successfully sync’d and created the data files. To start, go into the 1Password program on your Mac system and go to “Sync” under Preferences to choose Dropbox: And even then, well, I have all of that and I still can’t get iCloud sync to work.įortunately 1Password works pretty darn easily with Dropbox so it’s an easy alternative solution and since it stores the data encrypted, it’s just as safe as iCloud (at least, I hope so!). Turns out that’s because you can’t use iCloud sync unless you’re running Yosemite (Mac OS X 10.10) and iOS 8 and the very latest versions of the app for both platforms too. By coincidence I’ve been experimenting with various sync options on 1Password, my favorite password storage and management program for the Mac platform, and had the same problems with iCloud sync too.
