Migrating from SecureAccess 1.0 to SecureAccess 3.0 on a Mac
How do I transfer the data from SecureAccess 1.0 to SecureAccess 3.0?

SecureAccess 3.0 is a fully redesigned password protection and data encryption application which uses a new encryption engine. Due to this we will need to install SecureAccess 3.0 and copy the data from SecureAccess 1.0 to SecureAccess 3.0. After the data has been copied to SecureAccess 3.0 we can simply delete SecureAccess 1.0.

In the migration method explained below we will restore the data to your Mac then import the data into SecureAccess 3.0. Once the data has been transferred to SecureAccess 3.0 we will delete SecureAccess 1.0.

STEP 1 - Backup the data in your SecureAccess v1.0 vault to your Mac
1. Open SecureAccess 1.0.
