Why can't I edit this vault?

I have the new 1Password version on the mac (1Password for Mac 8.10.8 (81008045)), but when I right-click on a vault and try to edit it so I can change the icon -- in my own "Private" vault -- I'm greeted with "You can't edit this vault."

I don't see how to get around this problem (bug?)

Thanks in advance for any help.


1Password Version: 8.10.8

Thanks for the clarification. You can mark a vault as "Safe for Travel" by using 1Password.com in your browser:

  1. Log in to your 1Password account on 1Password.com (in the browser, not the app).
  2. Click on the gear wheel icon underneath the vault that you'd like to mark as safe for travel.
  3. Turn on "Safe for Travel".

Hi Dave,

I tried to do just this but the option is not available. It’s showing in all other vaults apart from this one.

Thx

Thank you for the reply. To help me better understand the situation I'd like to ask you to take a screenshot of what you're seeing and attach it to your reply:

Thanks for the screenshot. It looks like you're in the desktop app, you'll instead need to go to the 1Password.com website in your browser to mark a vault as Safe for Travel:

  1. Open your browser.
  2. Go to 1Password.com (in the browser, not the app) and login to your account.
  3. Click on the gear wheel icon underneath the vault that you'd like to mark as safe for travel.
  4. Turn on "Safe for Travel".
