How can I import my date from 1password 6 to 1password mc 8.9.4?

I have an old version of 1password and the new version won't import exports from the old version.
Old : 1password 1.6
New: 1password 8.9.4


1Password Version: 8
Extension Version: 9.4
OS Version: os12.6
Browser:_ Safari

    Hey there @doorstriker

    If you have any data in a Primary vault, then you'll need to go through 1Password 7 first:

    If you’re using 1Password 6, you’ll need to upgrade to 1Password 7 and migrate your data to a 1Password account before you can upgrade to 1Password 8. Learn how to migrate your standalone vaults from 1Password 6 for Mac to a 1Password account.

    — from the article, Upgrade to 1Password 8 for Mac, from the 1Password Support website

    If you don't have a Primary vault, and you can see everything you're expecting when you sign in to 1Password.com, then you don't need to worry about exporting your data from 1Password 6 – everything will be re-downloaded from 1Password.com when you sign in to 1Password 8.

    Let me know if you get stuck along either of those routes or if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing how you get on. :)
