Frozen Mouse

I’m on an early 2015 MacBook Pro and just updated to Monterey.

Past the login screen my mouse freezes and I can’t use my laptop. I have tried NVRAM reset, safe mode, aswell as SMC reset

Does anyone else have a similar issue or any troubleshooting ideas?

Thanks in advance

Keyboard and trackpad stop working after upgrade to Ventura 13.0.1 After i upgraded my macbook pro M1 14" to Ventura 13.0.1, the keyboard (external Apple bluetooth keyboard as well as the built in one) and some functions of the trackpad and Bluetooth mouse stop working. If i restart the computer, they resume working for a short time but inevitably fail again regardless of what software I am using. The issue appeared immediately after upgrading to Ventura and no other updates are available.

Some default apps and preference panes not responding 2019 MBP - Ventura 13.0.1 Some apps have begun to freeze up while running and then will not reopen. Music, Messages, Mail. App store will also sit on "loading" spinning indefinitely. Calendar also froze today but a force quit allowed it to restart. Also some preference pane tabs (users & groups, privacy & security, wallet & apple pay) will not load and then turn up "not responding" in the Force Quit menu. Restarting the computer allows the apps to reload but does not allow the preference panes to work. Apps begin to freeze again in less than 24hrs. Safe mode allowed the privacy and security pane to load. When force quitting any of these the report Event is listed as "hang" I have AVG antivirus (basic) and Malwarebytes installed and they find no problems. I installed Malwarebytes after the problem started to show up because I was suspicious of malware. Nothing new was installed recently before the problem started to show up. I'm not sure what to try next.
