Selenium and Python - Bot for Instagram Login

I'm trying to create a bot to access instagram, but I don't understand why it's giving an error, here's the code:
from time import sleep
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.implicitly_wait(5)
browser.get('https://www.instagram.com/')
login_link = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//a[text()='Log in']")
login_link.click()
sleep(2)
username_input = browser.find_element_by_css_selector("input[name='username']")
password_input = browser.find_element_by_css_selector("input[name='password']")
username_input.send_keys("username")
password_input.send_keys("12345678")
login_button = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//button[#type='submit']")
login_button.click()
sleep(5)
browser.close()
and the error on cmd is this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\*******\Desktop\bot instagram da net.py", line 9, in <module>
login_link = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//a[text()='Log in']")
File "C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 394, in find_element_by_xpath

File "C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 976, in find_element
return self.execute(Command.FIND_ELEMENT, {

raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: Unable to locate element: //a[text()='Log in']
I TRIED PUT A SLEEP AFTER BROWSER.GET, BUT HAD THE SAME ERROR

The following works for me:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as ec
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get('https://www.instagram.com/')
wait.until(ec.element_to_be_clickable((By.NAME, "username"))).send_keys("username")
el = wait.until(ec.element_to_be_clickable((By.NAME, "password")))
el.send_keys("password")
el.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)

Try having a sleep immediately after the browser.get. I think the page hasn't finished loading when you are trying to access the element.

Element not interactable when trying to access a pop-up with Selenium

I am trying to scrape the following website: https://www.nemlig.com/ but it is not as easy as I was used to, as the page I am trying to scrape things off is not static. What I am trying to do using Selenium is click this:
So that the zipcode pop-up is visible. Then, insert a number and hit enter.
This is my take on it:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r"C:\Users\user\lib\chromedriver_77.0.3865.40.exe")
browser.get('https://www.nemlig.com/')
elem = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#class='timeslot-statusbutton']")
elem.clear()
elem = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#class='prompt__input ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-touched']")
elem.send_keys("2300")
elem.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
But everything after browser.get returns me this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 8, in
elem = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#class='timeslot-statusbutton']").click()
File "D:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webelement.py", line 80, in click
self._execute(Command.CLICK_ELEMENT)
File "D:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webelement.py", line 633, in _execute
return self._parent.execute(command, params)
File "D:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 321, in execute
self.error_handler.check_response(response)
File "D:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\errorhandler.py", line 242, in check_response
raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
ElementNotInteractableException: element not interactable
(Session info: chrome=77.0.3865.90)
How can I do this properly?

You can try this code :
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = r'C:/Users/***/Downloads/BrowserDriver/chromedriver_win32/chromedriver.exe')
wait = WebDriverWait(driver,10)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("https://www.nemlig.com/")
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".timeslot-prompt.initial-animation-done")))
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input[type='tel'][class^='pro']"))).send_keys('ABC')
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".btn.prompt__button"))).click()
imports will be :
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotVisibleException: Message: element not interactable using Selenium

I am searching to do a program for fun but i have some problems with selenium and i
need some help...
This is the programm (i deleted the directory of webdriver because the folder's name contain the name of an other person)
from selenium import webdriver
import webbrowser
import time
def Pass_send_():
driver=webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('chrome://flags/#password_export-enable')
ricerca=driver.find_element_by_id("search")
ricerca.send_keys('password export')
scorritore=driver.find_element_by_class_name('experiment-select')
scorritore.click()
Pass_send_()
And so the purpose it's easy, it should open a windows, type a text and click a button. everything works but the click doesn't and this is the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python34\internet22.py", line 18, in <module>
Pass_send_()
File "C:\Python34\internet22.py", line 14, in Pass_send_

File "C:\Python34\lib\site-
packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webelement.py", line 80, in click
self._execute(Command.CLICK_ELEMENT)
File "C:\Python34\lib\site-
packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webelement.py", line 633, in _execute
return self._parent.execute(command, params)
File "C:\Python34\lib\site-
packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 321, in execute
self.error_handler.check_response(response)
File "C:\Python34\lib\site-
packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\errorhandler.py", line 242, in
check_response
raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotVisibleException: Message: element not interactable
So i am not an expert but it says: element not intercatable? what does it mean and how can i fix it? i would really appreciate a reply...

To send a character sequence to the search box within the webpage chrome://flags/#password_export-enable you need to induce WebDriverWait and you can use the following solution:
Code Block:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
options = Options()
options.add_argument('start-maximized')
options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
options.add_argument('--disable-extensions')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options, executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get('chrome://flags/#password_export-enable')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input#search"))).send_keys("password export")

All of the code works up until the last line, "element.click()"
I am getting an error -->

raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotInteractableException: Message: Element could not be scrolled into view
The confusing part is the 2 lines right before the line that causes the error are
element = driver.find_element_by_id('StudentRegistration_3')
driver.execute_script("return arguments[0].scrollIntoView();", element)
which do exactly what the error says hasn't happened, they scroll the the button I am trying to click on with the last line into view.
Can anyone identify a solution?
I am using python 3, selenium and Firefox are updated to current versions.

So below is my code so far. It is supposed to go to the website and login with all the necessary details but i keep on getting huge chunks of errors! I dont understand where the error is hiding, anyone who sees it please help. Thanks!
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
browser = webdriver.Firefox()

emailElem = browser.find_element_by_id('Email')
emailElem.send_keys('email_address')
nextButton = browser.find_element_by_id('next')
nextButton.click()
passwordElem = browser.find_element_by_id('Passwd')
wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
passwordElem = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "Passwd")))
passwordElem.clear()
passwordElem.send_keys('12345')
SignIn = browser.find_element_by_id('signIn')
SignIn.click()
#passwordElem.clear()
#passwordElem.send_keys('12345')
#SignIn = browser.find_elements_by_id('signIn')
#SignIn.click()

This is the error i am receiving:

After you enter your email and submit the form, wait for the password field to be visible:
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
# wait for the password field to be visible
wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
passwordElem = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "Passwd")))
passwordElem.clear()
passwordElem.send_keys('12345')
SignIn = browser.find_element_by_id('signIn')
SignIn.click()
Also note that you have to use find_element_by_id() instead of the find_elements_by_id() method to locate the "Sign In" button.
