Trouble signing in to Apple ID

I am attempting to reset the admin password on my MacBook Pro using the Apple ID recovery. Whenever I input my username and password (which are correct) I get a message that there was a server connection error. I have tried resetting my computer multiple times as well as re entering my password with little luck.

Unable to Reset Password - MacBook Pro I can’t log into my new computer because I (embarrassingly) forgot my password. I have the reset password assistant pulled up. When I enter my Apple ID and password for my Apple ID, it says, “There was an error connecting to the Apple ID server.” I’ve been attempting this for 4 days, and am growing more & more frustrated. Please help. Thank you.

Unable to Reset Password on Login Screen - There was an error connecting to the Apple ID server I have forgotten my MacBook Air login password. Now, when I try to reset the password by logging into my iCloud account it gives me an error “There was an error connecting to the Apple ID server”.
