Macbook Pro will not fully load

Try restarting into Recovery Mode (Command+R) then launch Disk Utility, select your Macintosh HD and run a Verify Disk. If there are errors, run the Repair Disk.

If the above doesn't help, try a PRAM reset. When you do this, you may need to go into Startup Disk and re-select your Macintosh HD.

Add a new User (Standard) account and log into it. If it all looks good, then there is something (app maybe) in YOUR account that is causing you the issues.

You could try checking your user account's Login Items, write down the entries and then delete all of those entries, restart, login and see if your issues are gone. If they are gone, then you can add each Login Item back in until you find the one causing your issues.

I am not able to edit the Login Items for my original admin account. I cannot edit them when I am logged in as the new user and whenever I use the original account, it freezes before I can get to it.

Since you have a new user account that's an admin, I would make sure I have a back up of my original user account, delete that account along with it's home folder and recreate that account as an admin. When you delete the user account's Home folder (without securely erasing), it will keep it in the /Users folder as UserName (deleted). Log out of your new account and back into your newly created user account and copy your data back from your back up. See if things are OK.

Sorry, I was mistaken. When you delete the user's Home folder, select Don't Change the Home Folder. This will keep it with (deleted) next to it and retain your files.

Thank you for the reply.

recreate the user and have it use the same folder (after I remove deleted). I am able to use the same folder, but it still gives me the same error. I can log-in but I cannot click anything.

Unfortunately, you recreated your issue!

The whole point of deleting your User account and recreating it is to start clean with a new User Home folder. Then, you copy the contents of your old Home folders (Documents, Downloads, Music, etc.) from the UserName(deleted) folder into your new recreated UserName Home folder (without the deleted).

So, you are back to square one and need to start over by logging into your other Admin User account. Then, delete the User account you just created and select the Don't change the Home folder so that when you delete the account it saves that User Home folder to UserName(deleted). Next, add a new User account as the same name you had before as an Administrator type. Last, log out of the Admin account you are in and login to your new User account and check to see if your issue is gone. If it is, then copy files from the UserName(deleted) folder to your new User account folders and when everything looks fine, you can delete the UserName(deleted) folder. But NOT until you are 100% sure everything is fine.

When you create the User account, do not select Use Existing folder. You want a new fresh Home folder.
