Mac doesn't finish starting up

Hi,

Since yesterday I experience an issue starting up my macbook. I enter my password and when I arrive at half of the booting line the screen goes black and nothing.

I already tried all the solution offer - Nothing works - I am able to start in a safe mode - I clean everything run the permission repairs and when I go back to start normally I still face the same issue.


Please help !

Manon

If your Mac doesn't turn on

If your Mac doesn't start up all the way

Boot into Internet Recovery (Option Command R) and from the dropdown menu: Utilities>  Disk Utility> run the First Aid on your Macintosh HD (and the "Macintosh HD-Data" volume as well if Catalina/Big Sur/Monterey) If errors are found and repaired, run again until no errors reported.


Disk Utility>View>Show All Devices The best sequence is —

• Volume level

• Container level

• Parent drive
