Logging on to my MacBook Air When I enter my password the password entry area just bounces on the screen and I can't get any further. This has been happening for a while now but if I let it sit for a bit it normally works. Today it's been more than an hour. Can anyone help please?

Password characters being limited to 15 on macbook pro I am trying to log into my work website, which has a restriction of password being at least 16 characters long. For a while I was able to use the VPN and safari to log in. However, for some reason now I can not use the VPN nor the safari browser to log into my employer system. If I use other browser such as Brave i can access the website, but still can not access anything that requires the VPN. I can type in the first 15 characters of my passwrod but when I type the 16th I hear a clicking sound and the character does not register and I get the wrogn password message when I type sign in.
