But I'm having a hard time to:ġ: getting my 800+ passwords/ wifi codes etc into 1password (from my OS X keychain)Ģ:logging into apps on my iOs device keeps me getting back to and fro kc2g (and after accomplishing problem 1, 1password), but is there a more elegant way to enter passwords from within apps besides safari?ģ:what about syncing, can it be done automatically AND safe? I know the keychain is an encrypted vault but as a matter of security i really don't trust dropbox neither iCloud (although i currently have most of my pw stored there because it just works and i didn't find a better solution until 1password.hopefully. I'm trying to do just as you said: getting al my stuff into 1password and work from there. If you can explain a bit more about the problem you're having with 1Password and the OS X keychain, we'd love to help you get the information into 1Password. The good news is that we have an amazing community moderator, who's been writing a tool designed to help with this, and he's always helping our community here to adjust his tools and scripts to work with our customers' needs. However, CSV is rather strict and isn't flexible enough to work between different tools. That's why we have some limited import support but we didn't skim on the industry format used often to transfer data, CSV. Unfortunately, each tool has a different way of exporting data that doesn't always fit into the way 1Password works. We focus mainly on 1Password and making it better over time, and we do try to help with the import and export formats. 1Password does not sync with other security tools for security reasons, we cannot promise to keep your data secure if we rely on others. If you need a tool that is self-contained with strong encryption and help you manage your security with filling, generating strong passwords you don't have to remember, and many more, 1Password is the tool you can use.

If you need a tool to sync your OS X and iOS keychain data only, 1Password isn't the right tool for that. It is also why 1Password is available on multiple platforms rather than just OS X and iOS.

That's not our goal here with 1Password, it is not meant to be used to sync your OS X keychains, it is meant to hold all of your information within 1Password and only within 1Password, so that you only need to remember one password to reveal the rest of the sensitive information. Hi as far as I can tell from their descriptions at the app store is designed to focus on your OS X keychain, it is their goal to make sure it always work with that. Dropping the import assistant and demand csv files have a specific ordering of columns also sounded a little absurd.

But apparently, you have to install separately a older version of the software to get this useful feature.Ģ.

It was one important reason why I chose 1password. I knew 1password 3 had the ability to import directly from KeePass and assumed 1password 4 would too. It makes me wonder if this four step syncing would be more prone to data conflict or loss.Ī few complaint about importing so far: 1. Apparently, if I have two computers and adds an entry to 1password on one, the entry is first add in main database, then "synced" to the dropbox keychain file, then to dropbox server, then to the other computer's dropbox keychain file, then "synced" to the main database of 1password on the other computer. I thought the main database of 1password would be put in dropbox, if I choose dropbox syncing, like KeePass does. Shouldn't passwords deleted from vault be also deleted from Dropbox? I had to stop syncing to get those files removed. My question is, I had already set up dropbox sync before the import and after importing, the dropbox folder had several hundreds files in it, but after deleting everything from my (only) vault, all the keychain files in dropbox remained there undeleted. I tried to export my data from KeePass to a csv file and then import into 1password, however all the entries were messed up and I had to delete everything, including the entries I had manually entered.

I just bought a bundle of 1password for mac and windows yesterday after having used KeePass for 3 years.
