Topic: Unable to restore all the ETH addresses in my Meta Mask (Read 125 times)
Since the OP has access to his old computer, on which MetaMask is located, he can get a private key for each of his addresses and import it on the new computer. And this, in my opinion, is the easiest way to restore access to all addresses. I would like to hear the OP, has he solved his problem?
Make sure that you are synchronizing on the Ethereum blockchain and not on other layers such as BSC or MATIC, and make sure that the wallet is connected to the Internet, the synchronization is correct, and that you clicked on the accounts button and opened accounts.
If this does not work, use https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ to generate the private key for all your addresses and search for the addresses that have a balance. After you find the balance, insert the private key for that address into the MetaMak wallet, generate a new seed and withdraw all your balance to the new wallet..

Like other members suggested, you will have to add new accounts to be able to see the other addresses that is if you didn't create them by importing private keys in your old PC
Alternatively, you can use the iancoleman tool (https://iancoleman.io/bip39/) to generate the addresses and private keys in their derivation order, but you have to download it and do it offline to avoid compromising seeds

...So why i do not see all of those ETH addresses in my new wallet? and how to restore them...
You need to re-create new addresses in the MetaMask and do this until all your old addresses are restored. In addition, you can extract your private keys for each of your old addresses and then import them into a new MetaMask. I recommend that you save these private keys for each address and store them together with seed phrases.
OP since you are using a new computer its normal that what you imported on your new device would be the first address or main wallet under that seed phrase so when you want to see other addresses belong to that seed or private key, you need to follow this particular step saif by John.
You need to just add the accounts by clicking on "Add account" in the meta mask wallet. Meta Mask wallet will by default add all your addresses in the same sequence as they were present in your old computer.
I think you do not have ETH balance in your other accounts, so you need to add those addresses manually.

Just try to do this, I have done this during the time of Axie craze where a lot of accounts were given to my scholars. I don't know what to do but just read the same advise of adding them manually. The funds are there and also the other accounts, you just need to put it back little by little but I don't know if it's okay if not having the same account name but still, just try it and see what will happen and update us back here if it's positive or not.
Never rely on seed words with MetaMask to retrieve all addresses that you issued on one of the copies installed on one of your devices. You are fortunate if you did not lose the copy installed on your old computer so that you can extract the secret keys for all addresses (no need for the seed) and add them manually to the new installed copy.
What is happening with MetaMask indicates that the wallet is unable to produce different addresses from the same seed, and that the seed is issued to produce one main address, while the rest of the addresses are produced randomly according to the protection of the private key/address pair.
I have not tried this before, so I wonder if the same thing happens with the MetaMask version on the phone.

Unless you were once importing the address by private key, it is impossible the seed phases did not return the correct address.
Now it is expected that MetaMask only return 1 address if you recently reimport your secret recovery phrase/seed phrases into the application or extension. What you need to do is simply just re-add a new account, and then you will see the addresses you already had.
For full reference, take a look at the MetaMask support page, it is explained in detail and addresses the reason why you did not automatically see all the accounts/wallets: https://support.metamask.io/hc/en-us/articles/360015489271.

I recently imported a MetaMask wallet in my other computer and enter the seed phrases. However, I only see one of the accounts there on my new computer while on my old pc, i have more than one ETH account under the same meta mask wallet.
So why i do not see all of those ETH addresses in my new wallet? and how to restore them.
Aren't these addresses connected as they all have the same seed phrases
