The causes of a frozen Mac range from hung applications hogging resources to faulty external devices or even malware infections. If an application freezes, wait a bit to see if it resolves itself; if not, force-quit the frozen app using Command + Option + Escape or through the Dock icon. If that doesn't work, restart your Mac.Low RAM or problematic peripherals can also lead to a frozen Mac. Uninstalling unnecessary apps, disconnecting external devices, or updating MacOS can help resolve these issues. Booting into safe mode can help identify broken extensions or problematic apps.
