[@camilobusiness9702]

Nice content and you’re really good technician. Thanks for you time and for help us! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@foreverswish3238]

You are the goat for this man thank you so much you dont know how much you helped🫡🔥

[@ivonneramos5779]

I can’t do anything, how I’m I supposed to check if is connected to internet? It’s just showing my name and password which it keep telling is wrong. I have a MacBook Pro 14

[@perfection8638]

Same worked now

[@mattnorkaitis8793]

They are so dumb to make it this hard, but you saved my bacon, thanks.

[@newmandeepkaur2007]

Damm you r a lifesaver… I just bought my MacBook, set up the password and 15 minutes later tried to login and somehow it’s not accepting my password, tried everything and on top of it, no forget password option was displaying. Watch for lot of videos to fix it, but nothing work, got so frustrated. By the grace of God, came across ur video, simple to understand and it worked. Thank you so much🙏

[@lindcobbs4615]

I watched many videos and not one of them mentioned to type reset password as one word. It's so frustrating when you spend so much time on something to find out one simple thing made a world of difference that so many fell to point out. Thank so very much for your help. Now I can go back to sleep and no night mares.

[@KatieClark-t1p]

THIS VIDEO WORKS!! Saved me money and time thank you!! Newer Mac’s hold down finger authentication button (don’t need “command+R”), prompts you into recovery mode, 4 options come up ignore this. Top left find “utilities”, click “terminal”, a small coding box pops up, **make sure you’re connect to WiFi. Once connected, use coding box and type “resetpassword” hit enter, had to click “deactivate Mac”, then allowed me to click on my account id, and reset new password and hint 🎉 all my stuff still intact!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@fessid7682]

Ur voice has magical powers. Ive been putting my password in for HOURS & as soon as I played ur video I tried again & IT WORKED

[@orotify]

You’re an absolute life saver, my fiancé was typing in the correct password but for whatever reason it was saying it was incorrect. After many failed attempts from other videos this one hit the nail on the head and after following this simple guide we managed to reset her password and log back in! Now she can do her college homework again! Thank you times 100!!!

[@lapfix]

Glad I could help fren =)

[@natashaparkes8868]

Why doesn't it work for me? 😩

[@abinu646]

It doesn't work for me too

[@masodidit]

Yoooo I was having the exact same problem n now it worked 😂. My work is due tmrw

[@melodyvise5492]

Ditto for me! Totally worked, so THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

[@ericgibbons6708]

Life Saver!!!!!!!! Gave my Mom a Macbook Pro Air, asked her for a password, she wrote it down and proceeded to misplace it. Took it to a shop, they wanted $200. Glad I found you on KZbin

[@naomiedel]

This is the first time I’ve followed instructions from a video and actually gotten the desired results.The steps are so easy and straightforward, and the results make it even better. Thank you so much for your good work.

[@londonsway2633]

you are a life saver I am in punta cana right now and out of no where my password stopped working and I was typing in the correct password but you saved me I was able to reset password!! thank you!

[@Hazy_Dr3amer]

This was a life saver! As someone who doesn't know a lot about computers this was a nice and simple visual way for me to understand how to do the most basic thing lol. Very much appreciated.

[@ellieabel1543]

I was about to go to an Apple Store. I watched several videos but my issue wasn’t covered in any of them except this one. Thanks!

[@PamLarcher]

I have searched for hours on how to log in when I forgot my password. Your video did it all in a matter of minutes and your instructions were excellent!! You are a lifesaver-thank you!!

[@WordGirlPhotoEdits]

OMG!! This worked. My friend had a stroke and cannot remember any passwords, but we were able to get him back into his desktop. You're such a lifesaver!! Thanks :)

[@lapfix]

Great to hear!

[@Realist-nuhhh]

@@lapfix to hear that he had a stroke or that he got the passwords…🤔😩

[@dentaltherapywithDana]

This seriously saved me from spending a ton of money on gas to get to a store or a long wait on the phone with Apple. Thank You so much for taking the time to make this video. I have subscribed and will continue to follow and recommend your page.

[@IshanAhamed]

correction: for new MacBooks with M1 and later chips you need to hold the fingerprint power button+CMD+R

[@kondziu20019]

Bro, I spent 2-3 hours looking for this answer. Thanks a lot

[@londondouglas3907]

[@TheWHOREfying]

I was so stressed out because I could not figure this out and I needed my laptop for work tomorrow.. thank you SO MUCH!

[@MO-vx3br]

Thank you thank you thank you! We tried everything on Apple support plus watched 3 other videos and none of them showed the same screens that your video did. Which was what our computer was doing. Followed your steps one by one and IT WORKED! Spent close to 5 hours trying to resign onto the computer until YOU fixed our problem. I am now a faithful subscriber! Thank you again!

[@lapfix]

Thank you for the kind words and for subscribing. It means a lot 😊

[@barbaramateus2012]

after watching like 3 other videos and reading too many articles to count, this was the only video useful, that actually made me able to reset my password, thank you so much!

[@lapfix]

Glad it helped!

[@Donny9931]

You’re the man ! Been locked out my laptop for a while and I gave up on it , watched ur video and back in now ! Appreciate you champ ! 🎉

[@pricklymuffin3239]

Thank you! Saved my life. Aplle wasn't recognizing the password, but within recovery process it mentioned I cannot use the same one 😂 so basically it was a glitch

[@k_soares.]

Thank you very much!!!! I’ve tried everything before and nothing was solving my issue but following these steps I could reset my password!

[@andrebrisson5346]

You're are superrecontra awwwwwesome!!! I was breaking my brains trying to figure out my password in my old mac laptop and you HELPED me to solve the problem. Now, I can review my notes from my old classes. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH! You made my ugly rainy day in SoCal bright!

[@jenniferoliviaah]

Ahh, thank you so much for this video! I was convinced I would need to completely wipe it or just never be able to use it again. It worked straight away so I’m back in and extremely happy. Hoping I don’t forget it again but at least I know what to do now if I do! 😂🤭

[@tracykrieger7404]

[@itssleyaaxo5979]

U deserve millions of likes!!

AMAZING VIDEO !! Thanks so much !! You should post that on the apple community as this is s recurring question without answer. Soooo helpful !!

[@amariray5858]

😳 😁👍I wish this were the 1st one that showed up on the list of videos !!

[@neildean7515]

Just for clarity. Is this to reset the Imac Login or Apple password, mine are different. On updatibg to Ventura, my old password is not recognised and i cannot get back in. Do they now need to be the same thing, if so, i assume i will need to do a clean install and start again?

[@santiagoospina5836]

You are amazing. You know your thing and you have this availability so people in general can understand. So kool. Again you are amazing. Thank you man.

[@lapfix]

[@lapfix]

Glad I could help! Cool user name 😎

[@philodonoghue3062]

From the multitude of Comments calling this KZbin video channel dude “a life saver” , “you saved my life “ etc, he should call his channel ‘The MacOS Lifesaver ‘

[@tati_in_fashion]

I couldn’t get out from the secure boot and update OS, used the command ‘resetpassword’ and my laptop finally rebooted without any update 😊❤ thanx a bunch

[@jamalhadid4199]

[@chrystiesmithtzorbust5491]

Thank you!!!!! I was concerned I would have to wipe my laptop after it started demanding a password for no reason one day and I couldn't remember my password. The Apple ID was my MILS old one, because I bought it from her and she couldn't remember it either. Just a few minutes and the problem was SOLVED!!

[@janiekl1956]

I followed the first part of the instructions, then it went to Reset Password screen. It is a MacBook model A1534 which was my daughter's and it is password protected. She passed away 2.5 years ago. I went through Apple and successfully filed through the Legacy account and had her Apple id account deleted (per Apple tech support) and now I want to add the device to my apple account. Suggestions?

[@markmcmanaman1282]

Thanks for saving my afternooon…thank you thank you thank you 😅!!

[@MrVacicak]

This helped me so much, Im sys admin for windows computers and had to learn to use mac because of Management using them for "status". I dont want to be rude but small things like not able to find out what you are typing into login screen, or what keyboard layout is (since mac has @ on differentplace then windows and such) Its just stupid.

[@majabinhafizi7294]

Thank you so much , it was very helpful sir , easily to get to the reset command 😊

[@ericaspriggs3856]

Wow! My sister was really going to take this to Best Buy and pay!!! This one freaking worked!!! For MacBook Pro 2020, it needed power button+CMD+R. It fucking work! Followed through the direction except she needed to deactivate hers! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!

[@lauratorres3032]
