2023 MacBook Air M2 15" 16 Ram 512Gb Sonoma freezes, no apparent reason? Today Sat. Nov 4th/23, My approx 3 weeks old MacBook Air froze just browsing web using Safari and earlier using *Find My* to adjust settings for notifications. I couldn't get it to respond at all, tried using Apple Menu in top left to shut down and nothing would happen. I finally figured out holding the finger print sensor key down long enough shut it down. Yes, I'm new to Mac systems. Is there a way to figure out what's going on?

If Safari on Mac doesn't open a webpage or isn't working as expected - Apple Support has some suggestions. If they don't help please write back.
