Troubleshooting
MacBook Pro isn't turning on.
Ensure the device is connected to a working power outlet using the provided power adapter and cable. Allow it to charge for at least 10 minutes if the battery was completely drained. If still unresponsive, try holding down the Power button (Touch ID sensor) for about 10 seconds.
Applications are running slow or freezing.
Check `Activity Monitor` (found in `Applications` > `Utilities`) to identify any applications consuming excessive CPU or memory, and quit them if unnecessary. Ensure macOS and all applications are updated to their latest versions. Verify that you have sufficient free storage space (at least 20GB recommended).
Wi-Fi connectivity issues.
Toggle Wi-Fi off and then back on via the menu bar. Restart your Wi-Fi router and your MacBook Pro. If the issue persists, go to `System Settings` > `Wi-Fi`, click `Details` next to your network, and choose `Forget This Network`, then reconnect.
External display not detected.
Ensure the cable connecting your MacBook Pro to the external display is securely plugged in on both ends and is functional. Check the display's input source settings. Try restarting your MacBook Pro. For multi-display setups, ensure your macOS version is current.
