Installed 6.0.1 on my 2nd mac - do not see icloud as a sync option?
Trying to migrate to 1p from lastpass - I set up 1p on my MBPr and iphone with no problem using iCloud as the sync medium.
Then I downloaded and installed 1p on my iMac but I icloud is not an option now, so I cannot get my sync'ed passwords.
I only see dropbox, this mac, another device (which only has a link to documentation) and restore from backup?
I'm sure this is a FAQ, but couldnt find any information?
Its a direct license I have (not MAS) if that makes a difference. Latest El Cap.
Thanks for any help!
1Password Version: 6.0.1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 10.11.3
Sync Type: iCloud

That shouldn't be a problem. Does anything in this knowledge base article help?

Hi @ravan,
I'm sorry you aren't seeing the iCloud option when setting up 1Password on a new Mac! This is actually a known issue - normally you should see iCloud listed there along with the other options. Our developers are working on correcting that, but in the meantime there's a simple workaround:
- Setup 1Password as a new user and choose the exact same master password you've been using on your other devices.
- Once you have a new, empty vault, go to the menu for 1Password 6 > Preferences.
- Select the Sync tab, then change the sync option from None to iCloud.
- Follow any additional steps to sync your 1Password from iCloud to your new Mac.
Again, I apologize for the inconvenience! Hopefully this helps you get set up, but if you run into trouble with that or have any questions, please don't hesitate to let us know. :)
