I updated to macOS BigSur, but after entering my password login is stuck. I tried couple approaches:
-
starting in safe mode;
-
reseting PRAM/NVRAM;
-
reinstalling BigSur;
-
also tried removing Csstore files described here Macbook Pro stuck after I enter my password
-
I even did full disk erase and installed BigSur, then imported my data via migration assistant but still cannot log in to my account;
but it did not help. I have other accounts and I am able to login there. I also tried from those accounts to login with su my_username
with terminal. I also changed the password that way, but all that did not help. I found the crash description in the logs of my user under ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/
and it seems that accountsd
is crashing, bug type 309.
Is there a process to fix this error?

Bummer. Before you try and reset the password, have you tried a safe mode start? (Power down, hold shift as the Mac starts)
Here is the script to reset the password when it’s not working anymore.
