    So how do i sync with dropbox account then? this is what you have in your website:

    https://support.1password.com/sync-with-dropbox/

    this clearly states that you should press the sync button to sync up with the dropbox account. how am i supposed to do this if there is no button?

    @xelat: Dropbox sync requires a local vault. Otherwise there's no sync to setup. You can enable local vaults under Preferences > Advanced, but keep in mind that local vaults won't work with a 1Password.com account, and sync setup of any kind is unnecessary in that case as well. Cheers! :)

    @xelat: Just enable local vaults in Preferences > Advanced as I suggested previously, and then you can select that vault in Dropbox to sync with and open it in 1Password. Then copy your data from there to your 1Password.com account and disable local vaults again, and you'll be all set. :)
