Sorry to butt in, but I have the same issue. I've wiped out everything and started from scratch using 'vanilla' SD card OS install/update/upgrade etc. (I'm surprised how fast the Pi is) My Mac sees the PI, but after entering default username and password. it denies connection. After doing another SD card installation and changing the username and password from something other than the default, that username and/or password combination is also denied. I've also tried enabling as well as disabling automatic login at boot - same results. Mac can connect to wife's Mac elsewhere n the house so networking is functional - printing, screen sharing etc work. . It's just that he he Mac recognises the Pi device (it's listed under 'Network"), but no password is recognised either as Registered user or as Guest. BTW, everything is connected via wire - haven't tried Wi-Fi
Thanks and cheers
I'm far from an expert on MacOS but when connecting via "Network" are you certain the Mac is trying to connect via ssh and not, say, SMB or some other file sharing protcol? Those won't be running with a default RPiOS installation.
For ssh from Mac to Pi I was successful as follows:
- Set up Pi, remembering to set a username and password, enable ssh, and (if required) configure WiFi.
- Boot Pi
- Make sure it is connected to the same network as the Mac
- On the Mac:
- Open terminal.
- ssh user@hostname e.g. user@ is important. Without it you'll be trying to login to the Pi with the username of the current user on the Mac.
Code:
ssh pi@raspberrypi
