When I woke up my MacBook pro this morning, (14" M3 Sequoia) instead of a log in option, I got a generic Sequoia screen. About this Mac worked but nothing else was apparent. Things returned to normal with a restart. Very strange and a little worrisome.


Any thoughts or suggestions would be welcomed.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 15.1

Occasionally any computer can do something odd, either due to a software glitch (perhaps some process running in the background overnight or an update that required a restart that went strange), a static charge or power surge, etc. I'd say that unless the problem happens again not to worry about it. Though of course you should be making regular backups, always a wise precaution in any case.


Regards.
