Move your passwords from Firefox to 1Password

You can transfer your passwords from Firefox into 1Password on 1Password.com.

1Password can import your passwords from Firefox. When you import from Firefox:

Your Firefox passwords will be converted into 1Password Login items.
Only passwords will be imported. Credit cards, addresses, and other information won’t be imported.

Step 1: Export your data from Firefox

Important

Before you export your data from Firefox, temporarily turn off any backup software you may be using, so the unencrypted export file isn’t backed up.

To export your data from Firefox, follow these steps on your computer:

Select the Firefox menu in the toolbar and choose Passwords.
Select the ellipsis in the top right and select Export Passwords.
Select Continue with export and enter the password you use to log in to your computer.
Save the passwords.csv file to your desktop.

Step 2: Import your data into 1Password

To import your data on 1Password.com:

In Firefox or another browser, sign in to your account on 1Password.com.
Select your name in the top right and choose Import.
Choose Firefox, then select Continue.
Choose the vault you want to import your data into. If you’re importing data you don’t want to share with other people, choose the Personal, Private, or Employee vault. The name of this vault varies depending on your account type.
Select Continue.
Select inside the dotted rectangle to open a file browser. Browse to your desktop and select the CSV file you created earlier.
Select Continue, then choose View imported items.

If you have any credit cards, addresses, or other information saved in Firefox, copy them manually into 1Password. Open 1Password on your computer or mobile device and select the plus button to add items.

Important

After you’ve imported your information into 1Password, delete the unencrypted CSV file, then turn on any backup software you turned off earlier.

Step 3: Turn off the built-in password manager in Firefox

To prevent Firefox from interfering with 1Password, make sure you have the 1Password browser extension installed, then turn off the built-in password manager in Firefox.

Step 4: Delete your passwords from Firefox

Firefox will continue to fill saved passwords even after you turn off the built-in password manager. To fill your passwords with 1Password instead of Firefox, delete your saved passwords from Firefox.

Important

Following these steps will permanently delete your passwords from Firefox, and you won’t be able to recover them. Make sure all your passwords from Firefox are saved in 1Password before you delete them.

To delete all your passwords at the same time:

Select the Firefox menu in the toolbar and choose Passwords.
Select the ellipsis in the top right and select Remove All Passwords.
Select Yes, remove passwords.
Select Remove All.

To delete your passwords individually:

Select the Firefox menu in the toolbar and choose Passwords.
Select a password you want to delete.
Select Remove, then choose Remove.
