I would like to change my master password. I know the password for all my devices. I am just wondering if I change master password on one device does it change it for all or do I change the master password on each device. I have had difficulties in the past. I changed master password on one device and others didn't work and wouldn't change....

I guess my question is how do I change master password on multiple devices.

Thanks, Keith Long

Hi   !
While Sync does encrypt your passwords online and on the Sync servers, it does not make any attempt to encrypt them on the device itself - that is the job of the Master Password. The Master Password itself is not synced between devices, so you can have a different (or no) master password on other devices.
