You may be able to use your Apple ID to reset it: Reset your Mac login password - Apple Support

You need an Apple ID just to log in to this site. If you forgot the Apple ID you created for your Mac, read If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support.

I’ve tried over and over to use my Apple ID to reset my password but it doesn’t work for some reason. I put in the new password and it rejects it and gives me the same old hint even after restarting my computer. If anyone has any other ideas I’d be very grateful!
