×I run into this quite often on my mac(s)/linux machines. Providing your SSH key (we’ll use id_rsa as an example) exists on the machine you are logging in from you may just need to add the key to your SSH Agent.
Question
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
or define the key with the ssh command
ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa username@droplet_ip
Hey friend, sounds like you’ll need to add the public key from your Mac to your Droplet.
The good news is you have access via your other Windows computer so one of these methods should be fine for you: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/droplets/how-to/add-ssh-keys/to-existing-droplet/
