Import Firefox passwords

JuliusH

<div class="IPBDescription">as Chrome does it</div>Hi!



I installed Chrome few weeks ago and I was kind of surprised, that it could import my passwords that I save with firefox (I hope I remember that properly).

So is there any posibillity, that 1password import them, too? Would save alot of work!

Hi JuliusH, welcome to the forums!



We do support importing passwords from Firefox.

[list=1][*]Open 1Password[*]Open File Menu, and select Import..[*]For import format, select Firefox and then press continue. It'll import the database automatically for you.[/list]

Please let me know how it turns out for you.



Thanks,

Hi,



Another noob question, I'm afraid - I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 and the 1Password Windoze *beta*. I've enabled firefox support and can use 1Password to manage logins, but I can't seem to find the "import" option under the file menu - am I missing something, or is the clue in the word "beta"? <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';-)' />

That's right, the clue is the Beta tag. [img]http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif[/img]There's no import functionality in the 1Password for Windows right now, we are planning to include it in a future update.

Nothing to apologize for, it happens and not a lot of people might know about this feature. That's why I'll leave it here.

Thanks for saving this post.

Did just install 1Password on my PC and created a database in Dropbox. Then I installed it on my Mac to import my FF passwords. 1password did automatically find my database in dropbox AWSOME! But when i choose to imort passwords from FF it just says "Please wait while passwords are imported from the browser." I did restart the Mac but it didnt help.

After creating a new database on the Mac it did work the way it should.
