I'm logged into https://my.1password.com. When I click on vaults, the only vault shown is Shared. On my MAC, I show 3 vaults (not 2 as I previously said):
- Bob's Family: ... Private ... Shared
- On My Mac ... Primary
Virtually all of my user passwords are either in my private vault or my primary vault.
Thanks for getting back to me. I hope to quickly have this resolved or start over. thank you

I am having the same problem for a family member. I have not found a solution yet, but we are able (on different computers) to log in on 1password.com with the new master password, but it will not work on her Mac no matter what I have tried.
She has 2 vaults - one as a family member and 1 as a guest in a business account. That may be the issue, but I haven't been able to nail it down yet. - rdeutschNew Contributor
To better explain this.
- When I recovered my account, I created a new master password at 1password.com (yesterday)
- Today, when on my MAC, I entered this same password into 1password. It did not work ... Invalid password
- I then logged onto 1password.com. When prompted for a password for Bob's Family, I entered the newly created password. It worked.I have 2 vaults in 1password on my mac - one is private; the other is shared. Maybe the password for the different vaults are different?
