If you forgot the password to log in to your Mac user account, or the password isn't accepted, choose a reset option from the login window.
These steps are for macOS Catalina or later. The steps for macOS Mojave or earlier are different. If you're not sure which macOS you're using, try these steps first.
The login window appears after you turn on, restart, or log out of your Mac. It's not the same as the window you might see when waking your Mac from sleep or stopping the screen saver, though it uses the same password.
•If you see Shut Down, Restart, and Sleep buttons, you're at the login window.
•If you see a Switch User button, click it to switch to the login window.
•If you see different buttons or no buttons, press and hold the power button on your Mac for up to 10 seconds, until your Mac turns off. (Every Mac has a power button. On laptop computers that have Touch ID, press and hold Touch ID.) Then press the power button again to turn your Mac back on. It then starts up to the login window.
