Whether you’re staring at a black screen, stuck on the Apple logo, or seeing an unexpected error message, a non-booting Mac doesn’t always mean disaster. Most startup problems have straightforward solutions.

Apple’s Mac lineup offers a range of laptops and desktops designed for different needs—from lightweight portability to powerhouse performance. Choosing the right Mac depends on how you plan to use it, your budget, and whether you prioritize mobility, screen size, or raw computing power.

Macs are known for their stability, but even the most reliable systems sometimes encounter apps that crash, freeze, or stop responding. Whether it’s Safari showing the dreaded spinning beach ball, or a professional app like Photoshop shutting down mid-project, these issues can be disruptive. Fortunately, most cases are fixable without advanced technical skills.
