"MacBook Pro Account Locked: I am locked out of my MacBook Pro User Account and can’t find anything on what to do. I never noticed any options to reset my password after my third attempt. Only that it said it was initially locked for 8 hours. Now it just says 'Your Account Is Locked'. How can I unlock my Mac."
