Hi, I bought a new Macbook Air M1 (2020) and found a problem. Whenever I close the lid, the screen always gets stuck once I open it again. The track pad, keyboard and mouse all became frozen. The computer became totally unresponsive unless I turn off the power.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks.

B. Boot in Safe Mode:
In Safe Mode, Login Items do not run at login, certain preferences are set aside, and damaged system files are then reset. So, once booted in to Safe Mode, wait 30 seconds, and then boot up normally, attempting another update install. For instructions, go here: How to Use Safe Mode on your Mac - Apple Support

Hi, I have the same experience with my 2020 Macbook Air M1. After the diagnosis at the apple service store, it seems everything is fine. They advised me to reformat my laptop. I hope this issue could be resolved.
