Yesterday I wanted to upgrade my Mac to the newest macOS, macOS Sierra. After the update, my Mac restarted, however, the computer booted to a black screen. The dark screen had an active white cursor. This article explains how I fixed this problem. I was investigating this issue and I realized that many users were having this problem. Some of our readers stated that they experienced this issue with their Macs unexpectedly. Some users have also stated that they found their Mac like this in the morning after waking the computer from sleep or standby mode.

So it seems that even though my Mac went into a black screen after an upgrade that fails to successfully update; however it also looks like the Mac computers may stop working unexpectedly and display only a black screen.

Hello there, I have the same problem but with a slight difference: the black screen didn’t show up after a restart but after my mac fell from a mere 15 inches (argh). It fell on the thin side, where the computer splits open. Strangely enough, my iTunes was running before it felt, and when I opened my computer after the fall, the music was still playing, but I couldn’t see anything: the screen was black, but changed to in tones when I pushed the luminosity button.

Seems like the hardware is ok, but the screen has a problem. Is there anything I can do to restore the situation? Thank you so much for your help.
