Mac keeps signing you out of Apple ID
Your password was changed elsewhere or old login information is stuck on your Mac. Sign out completely, clear the old saved data, and sign back in fresh. This fixes it.
When your Mac keeps signing you out, Apple's system thinks your session has expired or your password no longer matches. This happens when you change your Apple ID password on another device but your Mac still has the old information. The solution is to start fresh: sign out completely, delete the old saved login data, and sign back in with your current password.
- ✓Have your current Apple ID password ready — the one you use on your iPhone or other Apple devices
- ✓Make sure your Mac is plugged in or has at least 50% battery
- ✓Stay connected to WiFi while signing out and back in
