Hi @ups3270!
Do you by chance have a Primary vault in the 1Password for Mac app? The way 1Password unlocks is:
- If a Primary vault exists, then it unlocks using the Master Password for that vault, regardless of what, if any, memberships are signed in
- If a single 1Password membership is signed in, then it unlocks using the Master Password for that membership account
- If multiple memberships are signed in, then it unlocks using the Master Password of the first added membership
If you are using a 1Password membership we generally recommend removing the Primary vault. From what you are describing, it sounds like this is what could be causing the difference.
