How do I switch users on my Apple ID?

Published in macOS User Accounts 1 min read

The process for switching users on your Mac depends on whether your Mac has a Touch Bar.

Switching Users with Touch ID

  • If your Mac has a Touch Bar: Place your finger on Touch ID until “Press Touch ID to switch to [your name]” appears in the Touch Bar, then press Touch ID until it clicks.
  • If your Mac or Magic Keyboard has Touch ID only (no Touch Bar): Press Touch ID until it clicks.

This action should quickly switch you to the selected user account. You may be prompted for a password for the account you are switching to, depending on your system settings.
