An inability to connect to the Apple ID server is a significant hindrance. It could be a temporary condition that may or may not resolve itself.


The following is as comprehensive an answer you are likely to find.


Begin with If you forgot your Mac login password - Apple Support.


Even if you are certain the password is correct follow all of those steps, all the way through to and including If you can't reset your Mac login password - Apple Support, all the way through to its conclusion:


"If you still need help, please contact Apple Support."


It may or may not be applicable to your particular circumstances, but if your Mac has locked your account following too many failed login attempts, and your Apple ID is also locked, then follow these instructions: If your Apple ID is locked or disabled - Apple Support.


Be advised the following may be applicable: If you see an 'Unable to sign you in to your Apple ID' message - Apple Support.
