Using 1Password for iPad w/o Mac App

Hello all!



New user, first time poster...



So, I'm a stereotypically poor college student, and I'm concerned about internet security.



My question is - since I don't have money that I can use at the moment in order to buy the Mac Application, but can afford the iPad version, what would the best way to go about this be.



I plan to buy 1Password for my Mac in the (hopefully near) future, but I'm wanting to change my passwords to be more secure in the meantime.



What would you recommend for making it as painless as possible to use ONLY 1Password for iPad for the time being, while having more secure passwords without being too much of a burden when on the Mac?



Thanks for your help!

  • Agile team, I have an extra 1Password license that I received through the recent MacUpdate 2011 Spring Bundle promotion. Is it possible for me to donate this to a college student in a time of need? I have been there and I know the struggle.

    Updating passwords with 1Password for Mac is much easier than trying to do it on the iPad. It can be done on the iPad, but it is much more tedious since we cannot integrate directly with Mobile Safari in iOS. Apple simply does not allow it.



    Now that you have a Mac license, check out our "[url="http://help.agile.ws/1Password3/change_password.html"]Changing Login Passwords[/url]" guide and don't forget to [url="http://help.agile.ws/1Password3/cloud_syncing_with_dropbox.html"]set up Dropbox syncing[/url] to keep everything automatically up do date everywhere.

  • Thanks khad! I am glad that the license will get some use. The wonderful customer support and flexibility of Agile makes for a great user experience and definitely guarantees my future support .



    kconlon89, enjoy 1Password on the Mac. I know for a fact that it will make your life a lot easier and more secure. When you have the opportunity, I would just ask that you pay it forward.
  • Khad: Thanks for the quick response, I received the license, and am downloading right now!



    Fooligan: Thanks again. I'll pay it forward - don't worry!



    All: This experience has been great - I had heard about 1Password and how great the service was on the Mac Power Users podcast time and time again. However, this exceeded my expectations - both the customers AND support team at Agile are fantastic. Thanks to you all!



    I'll let you know if I have issues, and I thank you both again!

    Aw. It's like a virtual hug. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/emoticon-0137-clapping.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(clap)' />
  • Fooligan's offer, kconlon89's response, and even Khad's Cheezy Emoticon Extravaganza remind me why I started participating in these 1Password forums, in the first place.



    Sincere thanks to our awesome customers and my remarkable co-workers for such a great experience!
