Backup/Restore between iPhone and iPad with 1Password Pro

I now own 1Password Pro (having owned 1Password for iPhone and 1Password for iPad previously - don't ask) and wanted to get my data from one device to the other. As my iPad is the most up to date source at the moment I took a backup of the database from there and then restored it to the iPhone using the Backup/Restore mechanism (which says "suitable for restoring to 1Password for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad") but when I restore this to my iPhone it prompts for a 4 digit passcode (which you cannot set in 1Password Pro for the iPad) and does not accept the one I had previously entered in 1Password Pro on my iPhone (understandable as I presume I've wiped the iPhone's previous database using the database from my iPad). How can I restore the iPad's database to the iPhone or can the two not be sync'ed in this manner (and so I'm going to have to resort to using 1Password on the Mac to sync wirelessly)?



Thanks, Alec

    Except that you can. That's the trick, set your iPad password to be 4 digits before backing it up.

    That's okay, and thanks for letting us know you got the pointers.



    Don't forget to change your Master Password on the iPad back to something strong after you've made the backup for the iPhone.
