Hello Ronby123,

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Community. I understand you’re having some trouble with your Mac getting stuck on a black screen when waking up from sleep mode, and I have some information that may help.

In cases like this, it may be helpful to reset the SMC (System Management Controller) and NVRAM on your Mac. Have a look at the articles below to learn how.

If the issue persists, try testing it in safe mode using the article below. Using safe mode may help resolve the issue, as it clears some cached items.

If the trouble persists or you run into any trouble, please reach out again.
​Best Regards.
