How to Reset Your MacBook Password If You Forgot It

If you're unable to log in to your MacBook due to forgetting your admin password, there are a few methods you can use to reset it. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps for resetting your password using another admin account and also using your Apple ID.

Method 1: Resetting Your Password Using Another Admin Account

If you have multiple user accounts on your MacBook, you can use another admin account to log in and reset your password. To do this:

* Click on the padlock in the bottom-left corner of the window.

* If you know the login credentials for another one of your accounts, use that account to log in and reset your password.

Method 2: Resetting Your Password Using Your Apple ID

If you're unable to log in using an admin account, you can try resetting your password using your Apple ID. To do this:

* Once you get to the login screen, select the admin user you just reset the password for and type your new password.

* Click the Apple icon in the upper-left corner and select Restart from the drop-down menu.

Method 3: Using Recovery Mode

If you're unable to log in using either of the above methods, you can try entering recovery mode. To do this:

* Restart your MacBook and hold down the Command + R keys until you see the Apple logo.

* If you see the login screen, restart again and repeat the process until you get to Recovery Mode.

Tips and Tricks

* Make sure to check if Caps Lock is on, as passwords are case sensitive.

* If you're unable to log in after trying the above methods, don't contact Apple Support yet. Try using your password hint by clicking on the question mark in the password field.

* Remember that it's easier to reset your admin password using recovery mode.

By following these steps, you should be able to reset your MacBook admin password and regain access to your computer.
