Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Since this last update to Sonoma my Macbook crashes and reboots itself. I plug and adaptor to put some videos into a projector, for my students to watch, and it suddenly crashes. It has happened 3 times today! I cannot work like this.
I've tried a couple of adaptors and I have the same problem. I never had this issue before Sonoma.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.0

Try performing each thrice. It may take sometime, being certain you have the time to perform these resets.
B. Try a New Charger:

Sorry AI, this has nothing to do with a surge protector. Macbook is not even plugged. And it's a M1 macbook.
But thanks,
