Need help accessing macOS user account
For the last 5 years, I have been locked out of my primary user account on my Mac (spec details below). Background details: I was unable to gain access to my primary user account, despite knowing the correct password. With someone’s assistance, I was able to gain access to my admin account and have been using that account ever since.
When I attempt to login into my primary account (not admin) with the correct password, the spinning wheels spins for eternity and I have to reboot the machine. When I enter the incorrect password, the password bar shakes its head as normal and indicates a wrong password entry.
Any help to gain access to my primary account?
