How to Log into Mac without Password

Forget Your Mac Password? Here’s How to Access Your Device

Forgetting your Mac password can be a frustrating experience, but don't worry – there are ways to regain access to your device even without the password. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to log into your Mac without a password:

1. Restart your Mac and hold down Command + R until the Apple logo appears.
2. From the macOS Utilities window, select 'Terminal' under the 'Utilities' menu.
3. Once the Terminal window opens, type 'resetpassword' and hit Enter.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to reset your password or create a new one.
5. After resetting the password, restart your Mac and log in with the new password.

It's important to note that this method requires access to the Recovery Mode, and it's recommended to set up a new password once you regain access to your Mac for security reasons.

Remember to keep your password in a secure place or consider using a password manager to avoid forgetting it in the future.
