When I try to log in to my 2010 Macbook pro, the opening screen shows my name and 'guest' but when I click my name, the box for password is missing now under my name. Under Guest, there's a weird black box in its place.
What gives? My computer was feeling glitchy before this happened and the screen was vibrating and odd squares appeared and disappeard. So I shut down and rebooted. From that time, I could not do anything. I tried powering up with shift-command-option-power but that eventually wants me to reset my password and requires icloud & wifi, which is not connecting due to this weird password issue. I can't find anyone else with this issue and have been searching for a long time. I gave up in frustration and set it aside. Now trying again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
