Login password not accepted on my MacBook Pro I have a macbook Pro and cant log into my account when booting up it goes to ordinary password screen, but won’t accept valid password. If I press Enter with no password, it takes me to a different login screen with fields for both Name and Password. When I try to enter a username, it produces weird characters - non-English language characters and punctuation, mathematical symbols etc. And the password field only accepts some keys, it produces a refusal beep for others but seemingly quite random. I tried getting to safe mode but it is not working and once it rebooted to safe mode but I still couldn’t login, and now I can’t even get back there. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

MacBook Pro failure to login When I start my MacBook Pro, the password keeps failing. If I follow the prompts to try to login with my Apple ID and Password, it says it cannot connect. I tried to reset in safe mode but it just goes to the login screen like normal. Any suggestions?
