Hey Peppe99,


It sounds like you have some concerns with signing in on your MacBook Air.


Just to confirm, the Migration Assistant process is complete and you're just unable to sign into services like the App Store and iCloud? If so, make sure that the issue isn't with the Apple ID and that you can sign in successfully with both the Apple ID and password here: Manage your Apple ID - Apple. This will rule out any issues being with the account. If you're not able to log in, follow the prompts to reset your password again.


After signing in successfully, you'll want to sign out of iTunes and then sign in again with the correct Apple ID and password. Here's the steps for this under "iTunes Store, Books Store, and App Store": What to do after you change your Apple ID or password - Apple Support.


If you're experiencing something else, let us know exactly where you're signing in and any error messages that you receive.


Cheers!
