Starting over with 1Password after a fling with another password manager ...

a) what's wrong with Enpass/why are you thinking "I should have stuck with 1P"?

b) just start using 1P again and either edit the existing passwords for the changes or just log into the new sites with your new info and let 1P build the new entries.

You can also use the enpass converter available in the https://1password.community/discussion/101693/moving-to-1password-from-another-password-manager. You'll want to export as JSON, but the README will guide you through the process.

The converter will produce a 1PIF, but you will need 1Password 7 to import that, as version 8 does not yet import. So you can temporarily install 1Password 7 and import. I'm assuming you have a 1Password account; your entries will sync, and they will be available to 1Password 8.

a) After trying Enpass for several weeks I'm wondering about some of the procedures in certain instances. I'm too lazy to elaborate nor is this relevant. I got a great deal on a lifetime license and took it just because I could and was curious. I have a current nice deal on my 1Password subscription (as much as I despise subscriptions! :D
b) Sounds like too much trouble when my proposed routine should work and would be but a few clicks?

While relatively straightforward it is also very disappointing to hear v8 is lacking. More, I have deleted v7. Why shouldn't I have done so?! 1Password has historically been a super thoroughly developed piece of software/enterprise. Why shouldn't I expect it to be "complete"? Sheesh. Rhetorical questions, by the way. ;)
And to be clear, I make great use of backups including using TimeMachine on each computer so getting v7 isn't an issue. Having to do so is.

While I have a couple solutions I still wonder about the 1Password data/vault still on my system. What to do with the old stuff?

@tlance

My sole aim here was to provide any possible help for you to move forward, as per your original issue statement.

Ultimately you'll determine which products and solutions are best for your needs.

@MrC
For sure I appreciate your reply and your willingness to work here. I've done my own share of volunteer moderation in various capacities. I very much DO appreciate your work.

people seem to be so wracked with anxiety about going back to 1P7--all this talk about "I have it on my Time Machine backup," "I carefully zipped it up and stuck it away," etc.

When I decided it was time to move back to 1P7, I simply came here and downloaded v7 straight from the horse's mouth.

It's not like it completely disappears from the world when you upgrade to v8.

And all you have to do is run the installer. Voila. v8 is gone, v7 is there, and it all works.

... if you are using the subscription version of v7.

yes. But to move to v8 you had to be on subscription, so if you're not on subscription you never moved to v8 in the first place.
