I don't like how the 'edit pass' within safari was removed. Now within safari if you click edit, it will load up the main 1pass app and you have to search for your login
I'm not sure what we plan to do here, we certainly want to improve the mini app, but I am not sure whether this feature is coming back or what. I'll certainly pass your request along to the developers though.
... which effectively means it is not back, as there is nothing to sync 1P v4 (OS X) with...
I've mentioned this on the Agile forum, but I really think this is bad of you
I love 1Password, starting on Windows & iOS and moving to OS X and iOS last year.
... but I do not want to sync my keychain via the cloud, whether it is iCloud or Dropbox.
When 1P v 4 was released for iOS, you removed WiFi sync.
After many people moaned, you released the USB sync tool, so that we could still sync locally without using the cloud.
And now you have released 1P v4 for OS X, and brought back WiFi sync... yet not bothered to get the iOS version updated at the same time.
Now, as annoying as that is, at least there's still USB sync? Oh... nope, because that doesn't work with 1P v4 (OS X).
Great
1P v4 (iOS) works with USB sync, but 1P v4 (OS X) does not.
1P v4 (OS X) works with WiFi sync, but 1P v4 (iOS) does not.
Do you not think it may have been better to ensure that one or both of those methods worked on both platforms before releasing the new version for OS X?
We've submitted the update that includes wifi sync to Apple. Assuming approval is granted, the update should be available as soon as we can click the button to make it available.
I was planning on skipping Mountain Lion and going straight to Mavericks (what's the point of installing Mountain Lion now, when it will be superseded shortly).
However, I have found that I can't get my 1Password version 4 upgrade without going to Mountain Lion first.
Any comments about 1Password compatibility with Mavericks? Assuming that Mavericks gets released in the next couple of weeks, will I be able to get my upgrade? Or am I better off going to Mountain Lion now?
Our developers worked on 1Password 4 while using the Mavericks developer previews. As far as I know, there are no known incompatibilities.
As for the stability of Mavericks, I can't comment on that. My usage has mostly been in a VMWare image since I rely on my computer operating 100% every day of the week. I was planning to get the GM installed, but it arrived too close to release and so it has been pushed back on my schedule.
Hello Kyle,
I sent an email to
support@agilebits.com on 10/4 asking some questions, and I haven't received a response yet..
I'll post them here, and I hope you will be able to answer them for me.
Hi,
1) I downloaded a trial of 1Password 4, and I don't see any facilities for importing data from other applications like Splash ID. Can you tell me if this works, and how to do it?
1b) Also, when I attempted to import data from Splash ID, using 1Password 3, my data was copied into the wrong fields in 1Password. Any instruction on how to keep my formatting in 1Password would be appreciated. I wind up with Secure Notes for most of my entries, and I have a fair amount of entries. Manually changing from Secure Notes to the proper category, retyping all of them, and entering the correct data into corresponding fields, in 1Password would be too time consuming. Data import is critical for me.
2) Is Dropbox synching supported in the version for sale in the Apple App Store, or is it only iCloud synching?
Thank You
Hey there! If you can PM me the email address you used to send the message I'd love to close the ticket out so we aren't duplicating efforts here.
1) There is no import from SplashID at this time. We're still working on import functionality and that will arrive in a future update, not sure which though as plans change depending on the needs of the users.
1b) SplashID is a real pain to import from. I suggest waiting until we support SplashID import in 1Password 4, it will likely be better than it was in 1Password 3.
2) Dropbox syncing is available on all of our supported platforms. Mac, iOS, Windows, Android and Windows Phone.
An alternative to the Import option, and the one I tended to prefer when I switched from another piece of software around 1Password 2 time frame, was to manually put my data into 1Password. You may roll your eyes at me for this, but hear me out.
Many of these applications work in different ways. Some store information that isn't supported by other applications. Every application organizes their data differently and has their own methodology for how it's supposed to work.
Importing may not work 100%, even in the best of scenarios. My suggestion is to manually add each item from SplashID to 1Password. This is actually much easier than you may expect. Once you have 1Password 4 setup and the extension installed in your browser, all you have to do is type in your username and password from SplashID into the site. We'll ask to Save. Done.
I did this for a week or so as I needed to. So, on day one I'd visit my most often used sites and each time adding the information to 1Password. By the end of Day 1, I had my most used data in 1Password. Over the course of the next week I had closer to 70% of it in there, the only remaining stuff was expired, closed or little used information. At this point I just took the hour to manually copy relevant information over and tidied things up.
This also allowed me to 1) Put data into folders and 2) Create Tags for each item type so I could easily setup Smart Folders for my most frequently used data. It also let me verify every single site and the passwords. A few of those sites needed password resets and I may not have realized until I had gone through and did this.
Like I said, you may roll your eyes at me, but for me, this process was _way_ better than an import because I learned how 1Password worked, what I could do to improve my organization and I discovered more about my passwords and how bad they were in many cases.
I hope that helps!
