I recently purchased a new MacBook Air, I created a password, and immediately forgot. I've tried too many attempts to log in so now my account is locked and I cannot get onto my new Mac.
How can I unlock the macBook so I can create a new password?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.7
It sounds like it is your Apple ID password rather than your MacBook Air login password that is the issue. Apple has a support article that explains what to do when an Apple ID is locked or disabled. Click on the following link: If your Apple ID is locked or disabled - Apple Support

I tried the steps as outlined but all I get is "Your account is locked." How to I unlock the MacBook Air?
