Salutations ErmaLouise,
You came through the perfect article for this issue - If you can't reset your Mac login password as it goes through many options for steps to reset the password.
Just to be sure, have you been able to attempt the steps under each section? From macOS Recovery -
- If you're asked to select an admin user
-If you're asked to select an admin user you know the password for, click “Forgot all passwords?” and proceed as described below.
2. Use the Reset Password assistant
- which involves accessing the password reset via Terminal
3. Erasing your Mac
- which if no other solution is successful, you have the option to reset your password by erasing your Mac.
4. If you still need help, please contact Apple Support.
Thanks.
