I'm also facing the same issue, after the Ventura 13.3 update on my MacBook Pro 14 M1 Pro. Took it the authorised service centre and they told me "Could be a software bug". I did a factory reset and a full Erase and reinstalled macOs but nothing improved.


Initially thought that this was limited to my device, but now this has happened to many!.


Hopefully, Apple acknowledges this bug/ problems and solve it ASAP.

Hello everyone!


The same problem.


MacBook 💻 Pro M1.


After upgrading to 13.3 after starting the laptop on the unlock screen, the screen goes out for 1-2 seconds. After entering the password, the desktop appears and the screen goes out again, but for a longer period of 3-10 seconds. He doesn't react to anything. The keyboard works at the same time.

Hello there! When I encountered this problem after the update, I immediately noticed the bug and called support. The senior specialist who helped me assured me that it was normal, and even their own MacBook blinks during startup. I politely asked them to keep my request open in case other users face the same issue, to which the specialist smiled and said not to worry. That was the response I received from tech support.

Just updated the system to 13.3.1 did not help, at boot after switching on, the screen turns black for one second, then on the password screen, it also turns black for 1-2 seconds.


Developers , when will you return everything as it was in 13.2? Stop breaking the stability Ventura.

Return the normal system load, this black screen is straining.

I'm having the same issue except that in my case I get the black screen for up to 5 minutes before everything kicks. I'm on Ventura 13.4 on a MacStudio M1 Ultra. This has been going on for months. Sometimes it's fine for days on end, then suddenly it a black screen for days. Sometimes the desktop partially loads before it all stops for up to 5 minutes and then finishes loading.
