Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
During sessions with zoom or Teams, my Mac's camera freezes. I have experienced this with 3 Macs over the last 2 years, all with current software - both system and app. I do not experience the same when using a Windows (10 or 11) notebook. Given that this has spanned OS updates and different computers, it does not seem like the usual "reinstall the app". Any ideas?

Hi,
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes.
Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.

Pastebin is a good place to paste the whole report if you capture the URL while there…
Whew, they've changed pastebin & made it harder, but after pasting in, click Create new paste button, then Embed button, then copy the URL...

If pastebin is a problem for you then workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck. In a Reply before you click post, look for this to add longer texts...
