I need to access to my old account but I don't have/know the secret key.
Good afternoon.
I downloaded the app on 11/21/2016 09:53 AM. I don't remember if I paid but since 2016 I have been using the app.
Last week, I had a problem with my Iphone and needed to reinstall it. When I downloaded "1password" I had to enter the data to access the app. I wrote my email adress and the password but I need the secret key that I don't know. I went to support for help but support says I need to sign in to my account and this I can't do without the key secret!!!
I made a new account with my email and I thought the site would say "this account already exists" but to my surprise a new account was opened !!! But what I really need is access to my old account. Can you help me please?

Hi @MBarroso
Thank you for taking the time to write in. I'm sorry to hear about the difficulty you're having accessing your old account. If said account was a 1Password membership you would need the Secret Key in order to access it. There is no way around that. We have some tips on finding your Secret Key that may help, here:
Find your Secret Key or Setup Code | 1Password
If instead you were using 1Password "standalone" (e.g. with a license, rather than a membership) then there would be no Secret Key for it, and we would not be storing that data. By default it is stored only on the device it is created on, but we offer options to sync with Dropbox or iCloud. Do you remember setting up syncing with one of those services?
