Menu bar unresponsive

Hello frito_bandito,

Thank for trying that for us.

Next, let’s test in a new user on one of the computers. To do that, follow the steps here to create a new user: Add a user or group on Mac - Apple Support

Once the account is created, log into it and try to use finder. Make sure to not turn on any apps, change default settings, or download anything to the new user. This will allow us to test on a profile with no changes.

If it does not work in the new user, we recommend reaching out to Apple Support so they can look into this in more detail. You can do that here: Contact - Official Apple Support

If it does work in the new user, this tells us there is some kind of software that is causing it to happen. Try to look at both computers and see what details those two profiles have in common. This could be apps or settings. 

Kindest regards. 

Hello frito_bandito,

We would like to see how we can help you with Finder not responding as expected. Have you tried starting one of the affected Mac computers into safe mode? That will help you rule out some potential software causes. Here's How to use safe mode on your Mac:

"Apple silicon

1. Shut down your Mac.
2. Turn on your Mac and continue to press and hold the power button until you see the startup options window.
3. Select your startup disk, then press and hold the Shift key while clicking “Continue in Safe Mode.”
4. Log in to your Mac. You might be asked to log in again."

Then test it out, and click Apple menu () > Restart to get back to normal. Let us know the results.

Cheers!
