MacBook Air keeps beachballing after upgrading to 15.7.2
Safari on MacBook Air keeps beachballing and/or lagging after upgrading to macOS 15.7.2
Its super annoying and I wish now I'd never upgraded this device.
MacBook Air (M1, 2020)
Question marked as
To start and trouble shoot this annoyance with the computer in a logical way
Restart the computer in Safe Mode
Do the issues persist ?
Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.
If not - there could be something in the main User Account playing up.
To further isolate this - Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac.
Then log out of the Main User account and log into the dummy account and test again if the issue persists.
If the issue is present in the dummy account - then, this appears to be a System Wide issue on the computer.
