Hello tim_taylor​! 👋

Thank you for reaching out! 1Password's export tool is designed to export items only from one account at a time and, without being to see the situation directly, it sounds to me like you may have stored some of your personal items in the work account. 

Can you try the following: 

  1. Open and unlock the 1Password desktop app.

  2. Click your account or collection at the top of the sidebar and select your work account. 

  3. Click on the search field in the top of the app and search for your one of personal passwords. 


Do you see the password appear? If you do then you can click on it and see which vault it is currently located in. Let me know how that goes.
