Update to 3.9 did not work -- 1Password broken

ebenjen

I followed the upgrade instructions and cannot get the new version working.



I click the "I already have used 1Password" button and am asked to locate my password file. I navigate to "1Password.agilekeychain" which is in a Dropbox folder and select it.



Then, nothing happens. 1Password is running but there are no windows open. If I select Window > Main Window nothing happens.



In Preferences, I see nothing under "Your Data Stored In" and the Dropbox button is grayed out.



If I select Unlock from the application menu the master password is not recognized.



Fortunately, I was able to restore the old version.

Ok this one solves the problem:

Cheers, Fons.

Yup. That fixed it. But I still have a question. Your FAQ says

[quote]If your data is already stored on Dropbox then 1Password will keep using it. If you data was stored in the previously default location (~/Library/Application Support/1Password) then it will be automatically moved into the Container.[/quote]

But in my 1Password preferences it shows that my data is stored in the Container and the Dropbox button is grayed out. I followed the prompt when starting to locate the password file in my Dropbox folder.



Is the preference panel showing bad information or is there some reason I am not able to use Dropbox to store my password file?



Thx

OK, I figured out the Dropbox problem. You should update the FAQ page for the MAS version to tell people to make sure their Dropbox folder is in their home directory. I see I'm not the only one to have had problems with Dropbox.

Is there anything else we need to know regarding our configuration of iPhones, iPads and Dropbox?
