Sequoia crashes and restarts continuously since upgrade

I've had 3 crashes in 3 days since Sequoia update. Lost 1 month of work due to crashes and corrupt files from last update in August. Beats headphones broke. Ear pods are not working properly and at best randomly start playing music from my devices when I put them away(!). Sincerely considering leaving the Apple ecosystem. Hugely affecting my productivity and reputation.

Here's my crash report:

Norton AV is considered malware by most experienced users on these forums. Mac OS is catlike in that it cleans itself, Mac OS does not benefit from nor does it require any of the following types of third party apps:

·      Antivirus Apps

·      Cleaning Apps

·      Security Apps

·      VPN Apps

·      Maintenance Apps

What these types of apps do is the exact opposite of what users want. They make Mac OS slow, appear buggy, can damage Mac OS and sometimes create unwanted behaviors. In short, they are really bad news!

So the first order of business for your computer is that you need to locate the developers. uninstall instructions for Norton and please uninstall it. Because Norton is pretty nasty stuff it tends to leave parts behind after being uninstalled, a testimony to how poorly written the app is! To fully ensure you have uninstalled it please download the free version of FindAnyFile directly from the developer. Then have it search your system for the following:

• Norton
• Gen Digital
• Symantec

Have it Trash any files with those names in them and then ensure the Trash is empty.

Same here.... filing reports constantly........

Removed mac fan app and crashes seem to stop.

Any joy yet?

Seems to be working well... since I removed the macfan app and checked all other apps (upgraded Norton 360 too)for updates.

Same here. I always hit report and send the diagnostics to Apple, but I am not sure that does anything. It shuts down spontaneously at least once a day.
