I filed with TurboTax last year, yet the program is insisting I did not. I have the prepared 1040 from 2021 and it is from TurboTax. Why can't it find the AGI? I earned 0

Then try using zero as your AGI.  What are you trying to do?  Do you have taxable income for 2022 that you entered on a tax return?

It's common to end up with multiple accounts. First LOG OUT of whatever TurboTax account you're logged into right now. Then use this TurboTax account recovery website to get a list of user ID's for an email address. Run the tool against any email addresses you may have used

If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online.

You need your 2021 AGI to efile 2022. The AGI is on 2021 1040 line 11. If you filed a Joint return you use the same AGI for each spouse.

How to find the AGI.

If you didn't file 2021 or filed it later in the year or mailed it, then try entering 0 for the AGI. If that doesn't work you will have to print and mail your return.
