remove configuration profile macos I've been setting up the authentication to my MacBook account via smart card via this tutorial: https://cyb3rtus.medium.com/using-a-yubikey-as-multi-factor-authentication-for-macos-7698811cffc0 and when I logged out to test I was not able to log in back. Passwords are not accepted with the SmartCard connected. I have added a configuration profile before logging out and I think it is the cause. Now, every time I try to log in it throws "This account must usr SmartCard to log in". I tried to clear the profile via Terminal in Recovery Mode like described in Configure macOS for smart card-only authentication - Apple Support I tried re-installing macOS, didn't help. I would be grateful if someone could help me with this issue asap (I don't want to nuke the disk). Maybe there is a way to create a new user via Recovery Mode to re-configure the "locked" user? Thank you!

MacBook Air asking for CAC pin even when I don't have the CAC reader connected/CAC inserted Subject line sums it up well. I sometimes use a CAC reader with CAC on my MacBook Air (M1, 2020) to access my secure work website (military). But sometimes, even when my CAC reader isn't connected, and when I open up my Mac to login, it asks for my PIN (associated with my CAC reader/CAC card), and won't let me log on unless I plug in my CAC reader, insert my CAC card, and put in the pin. This is a pain for obvious reasons. Anyone else encounter this problem? Any fixes? I have no problem with the Mac asking for my pin when my CAC reader and CAC are actively connected, but it makes no sense for it to require my pin when I'm not even using the CAC reader. Thanks!

My MacBook Air won't let me sign in to my Apple ID without putting credit/debit card details in As the title reads my Mac wont let me sign into my Apple ID without entering card details in and I don't want to. after I enter my my billing address it just takes the option away for not entering a card and sent me the link to the support page. I am really confused so if anybody could help that would be very helpful. -Alfie

I have done this multiple times and it still continues to have the same problem.
