I changed the master password, did not write it down 😩😩😩. now 1password apps on Mac and iPad requests the master password which I don't have anymore (it is stored in the account that I can't access) . I created a new account, but are there anyway to restore the passwords stored in the old account πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™.
Sorry about that.

    @AHMED_O: Thanks for reaching out. I’m sorry to hear that. It is not possible for us to "restore" anyone's data, as we never have access to it. So the Master Password also isn't something we can 'reset' for you to help directly. However, please try the tips in this guide as they may help you gain access again:

    https://support.1password.com/forgot-master-password/

    Alternatively, if you're part of a 1Password Family or Team, another Owner, Organizer, or Admin can help you recover your account, so you can create a new Secret Key and Master Password:

    https://support.1password.com/recovery/#begin-recovery

    If that doesn't help though, you will need to either restore from a backup, sync from another device, or simply start over. You can try as many times as you want. You won’t be β€œlocked out”, but you will not be able to access your data unless you can enter the required Master Password correctly. Please let me know how it turns out.
