Vault location for migration

Since you dumped the old community answers, I can't access the answer I used to.

So I'm using 1Password 7.9.11 on my Mid 2011 iMac that is maxed out at MacOS 10.13.6 High Sierra.

I THOUGHT it would be in ~/Library/Application Support but could not find it

I next went to ~/Library/Containers but there are 7 com.agilebits.1password... folders there. I ruled out the ones that contained Safari extension info and the nativemessaginghost info.

I'm now left with two possible folders: com.agilebits.onepassword7 and com.agilebits.onepassword7-launcher

Are either of those where I can find the data or is there another location in ~/Library/ ?

Hello @romad! 👋

Thank you for reaching out. 1Password 7, which is no longer supported with the release of 1Password 8, stores its vault database, backup files, license files, and Watchtower vulnerability data in the following folder:

~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.agilebits/

Can you tell me a little more about what you're trying to migrate? Are you currently using a 1Password account or an older standalone vault? Are you moving to a new Mac?

Thanks, Dave

I'm pure 1Pwd7 standalone and 1Pwd8 won't work on any of my Macs even if it was available as standalone. I'm trying to set up an old MBA with very limited storage so I want to try to pick and chose just a few critical applications (since I can't do a standard full migration) to have available.

I'm researching replacements for 1Pwd that meet my criteria but haven't found one that is as comprehensive in the categories. I primarily use the Logins, Secure Notes, Software Licenses, and Wireless Routers.

Quick question: If I add something as a "Secure Note" can I delete the original file from my iMac?
