Why Am I Locked Out of My MacBook?
Several factors can cause MacBook lockout issues, including:
1. Forgotten Password
If you haven’t used your password in a while, it’s easy to forget it, preventing access to your Mac.
2. Wrong Keyboard Settings
An incorrect keyboard layout or activated Caps Lock might cause your password to appear incorrect.
3. macOS Update Issues
Some software updates can reset login settings, causing authentication problems.
4. FileVault Encryption
If FileVault is enabled and you forget your password, decryption issues may lock you out.
5. Multiple Failed Login Attempts
Repeatedly entering the wrong password can disable login options or lock the Mac temporarily.
