converting from Keepass2 using converter [Need 1Password 7]

I'm going to keep assuming that the developers have been drinking through a fire hose, trying to get v8 finished sufficiently to meet the customer requests and needs, and that this is on their radar

I think that is a fair assumption. 😆 Thanks for helping out here, as always, MrC.

I'm hoping a 1PIF (or 1PUX) import feature is imminent. I'm going to keep assuming that the developers have been drinking through a fire hose, trying to get v8 finished sufficiently to meet the customer requests and needs, and that this is on their radar.

Since they refer folks you to via the forums, it'd be nice if they continue to provide tools to make this doable. They'd be shooting themselves in the foot if they don't. Praying some tool can still be used for the next iteration!

I've just commented https://1password.community/discussion/125389/how-do-i-import-a-1pif-backup-into-1password-8#latest as well.

I'm sorry I wasn't aware that 1Password 8 didn't import 1PIF, and I thought that 1Password.com did. The instructions on 1Password.com lead you down the garden path, initially stating that you can Export your data, but turns out, that's not what you need to do:

here's their reply to me on Twitter:

"Hey, Joseph. Right now, 1Password 8 doesn't have the ability to import and everything is deferred to http://1Password.com. If you send an email to mailto:support@1password.com including a link to your tweet and more info on what you would like to accomplish, the team can help out."

Since I've already inputted the file, I'm going to let this go on my end and let you pursue it.

Thanks Again!

Done! Thanks for your wonderful help!

I've installed it too, and don't see any import. Oye.

If you can install 1Password 7, you can directly import the 1PIF there, and then re-install 1Password 8. You'll need to uninstall 1Password 8 to do that.

I don't see a way to do it from the software. I'll reach out to support to see what they say.

Great.

If I read correctly, you are using 1Password 8 - I don't know if that yet imports 1Password's 1PIF file, but the 1Password folks will provide guidance.

When I return in about an hour, I'll test out 1Password 8, and see what needs to be done to import the 1PIF (if it does not yet do that).

Again, non-programmer's mistakes:
1. I didn't place the export into the mrc folder (grr)
2. the desktop location it wanted to put the converted file was missing

With those fixes, I have successfully converted my database! Now to see if they import properly...
