I can't change my password on a MAC

I am unable to change my password. I am the admin for this MAC. When I try to change it, I get a dialog box that says


The password for “me” was not changed.


Your system administrator may not allow you to change your password or there was some other problem with your password. Contact your system administrator for help.


Suggestions?

Howdy,


It sounds like you have done the steps in Change the login password on Mac to get the error message.

So please check out the options in Change or reset the password of a macOS user account

Like reset your password with your Apple ID if you have that linked.

Let us know what works :-)
