Update (01/09/2017)

Is it only because I typed 3 times already then it goes like this?

But when I tried to fixed it using my Apple ID, it shows like this "there are no users on this volume using your iCloud account"

What I can do then?

So to start off depending on your settings when you first setup your system you might have set your system login as the same as your Apple ID. So you'll need to reset it as you've clearly gone over the limit of three attempts. Here's the Apple T/N that goes over the different ways: If you forgot your Apple ID password.

If by chance you bought your system used it might also still be linked to someone else Apple ID. You'll need to talk with the person you bought the system from and get them to release it from their ID. If they can't or are unwilling to you'll need to return the system and get your money back from them (maybe stolen).

OK so the Apple ID linked to the system is not yours then. Or, you used a different one.

If you didn't use your Apple ID for your systems User ID then you should have gotten a hint window to help remind you what the password is. Did you not get it, or forget to put in the hint ;-}

At this point I think you'll need to visit an Apple Store with proof of purchase or Apple authorized service center to have them try to gain access to your system.

Or, you could try scratching the drive and re-installing everything if you have a good backup otherwise you'll loose everything.
