Q: El Capitan After last security update the Mac freezes
Hello to all,
I have a MacBook Pro early 2011(2.2 GHz Intel Core i7). It has El Capitan 10.11.6 with 16Gb of RAM. A few days ago I applied the last security update from the App Store. Since then, it will not complete the boot up process. In fact it freezes on the welcome screen just after entering my password. Before applying the security update, it worked perfectly.
I've noticed that, while the wheel spins endlessly, the temperature of the Mac rises quite a bit.
I've tried the following actions to no avail:
1) Resetting the NVRAM
2) A safe boot
3) Running Disk Utility in Recovery Mode
4) File system consistency check restarting while holding Command+S
Can someone help ? Thank you
MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6), 17'' early 2011
