How do I put 1Password on my new computer?

I bought a new MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard. I can't seem to figure out how to sign in or how to get 1Password installed on my my new computer. I already have paid for it on my other computer and am using it on my iPad and iPhone.

    www.agilewebsolutions.com Download the 1Password install and plug in the serial number of the application from your purchase email confirmation. I recommend the iPhone app and also Using DropBox to sync your password file with any other computer you have access to. I have four macs, 3PCs, two iPhones, two iPads and I can have access to all my information on any platform from any machine at any time using DropBox and 1Password.

    Welcome to the forums, Denise, and thanks for getting the great reply, shirtpocket!



    I just want to add some links which will explain in greater detail the steps necessary. If you plan to have 1Password installed on more than one Mac or any other devices (like your iPhone and iPad) I would strongly recommend [url="http://help.agile.ws/1Password3/configure_dropbox_on_mac.html"]using Dropbox to keep everything up to date[/url] if you haven't already. Essentially, all you need to do is:



    [list=1]



    [*][url="http://www.dropbox.com"]Install Dropbox[/url] on your (old) Mac

    [*]Click the "Move to Dropbox" button in 1Password (Preferences > General)

    [*]There is no step three <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

    [/list]

    Then you can simply [url="http://www.dropbox.com"]install Dropbox on your new Mac[/url] and then [url="http://agile.ws/downloads"]install 1Password[/url] as well. You can also now [url="http://help.agile.ws/1Password3/cloud_syncing_with_dropbox.html"]enable Dropbox syncing on your iPhone and iPad[/url] from within the 1Password app on each device (Settings > Sync > Dropbox).



    I hope that helps. Please let us know how it turns out.
