Apple ID photo

Why is my Apple ID photo not updating on my MacBook Pro? I changed my Apple ID photo on my MacBook Pro through the settings. It changed on the settings portal and on my iPhone, but when my MacBook Pro's lock screen comes on the new photo isn't there. It shows my old Apple ID photo.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Apple ID Photo Issues Hello! I am having some issues with my apple ID photo. I changed my photo and it shows up everywhere, including my iPhone, EXCEPT my lock screen when I have to log onto my Mac. Am I missing something obvious? If I change my photo shouldn't that one also change? It does save properly as if I change it on my phone it shows up in the setting of my mac and vice-versa. Anyone know know how to get the lock screen ID photo to change? Thanks!

Changed my Apple ID and photos disappeared I bought a new MacBook and decided to change my Apple ID because I was sharing with the hubby. So the new Mac and my iPhone now have my newly created Apple ID but all but a few of my 30k photos are missing. I tried signing in with the old ID but nothing changed. Help!
