Stuck on log in, won’t start in safe mode

My MacBook Pro is only about 3 months old, used a handful of times. The login screen no longer has my picture and won’t accept the correct password. I can I put a password many time but the option to reset doesn’t come up. I’ve have tried every way online to rectify, holding down combinations of buttons, start in safe mode, but nothing works it just goes back to the same log in screen. Helppp

Hi karly200,

welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community


Seems your 3 month old Mac would likely be still under warranty:

You could get help from the experts if you wish:


If you need to check:

You likely have the serial number on a receipt, or on the packaging,

or in your Apple ID account online: https://appleid.apple.com

Does the login have any picture for the account?


Or is it just presenting you with the option to fill in both the username & password?


Is this your own personal laptop purchased directly from Apple?


Or did you purchase this laptop through your employer or school?


Or from a third party reseller?


Did your school or employer ever configure anything on your laptop?
