If some of your imported items have a !-repair-items-lastpass tag

If you imported your data using the 1Password desktop app, and you see a message that some of your items may have missing information due to decryption issues, you can manually copy any missing information from your LastPass items into their 1Password counterparts:

  1. Open and unlock the 1Password desktop app.
  2. Click the !-repair-items-lastpass tag in the sidebar to see the items with missing information.
  3. Select the first item and look for any fields that contain <failed to decrypt>. Compare the item to its LastPass counterpart to see if the field has any important information.
    • If you see missing information that needs to be copied over, click Edit in the 1Password app and copy the information from LastPass into the appropriate fields in 1Password, then click Save.
    • If you don’t see any missing information, skip to the next item.
  4. Repeat step 3 for each item in the list.
  5. When you’re finished, right-click the !-repair-items-lastpass tag in the sidebar and choose Delete Tag, then click Delete Tag.

If you use Duo for multi-factor authentication in your LastPass account

    • If you manage a LastPass team, make sure the policy for this option is disabled for your team members.
