Hi,
My 2012 Mac Pro, running Mojave, hangs if I try to do a restart, which some software installs apparently need. It opens OK, shuts down OK and runs fine, though takes longer than expected to start given that I have an SDD main drive. My 2010 Mac Pro, from which this drive was cloned, also suffered the same issues right after my update to Mojave but I don't really want to do a clean install as that would mean reauthorising countless audio plug-ins. I'm also reluctant to move to Catalina as some of my plug-ins wouldn't work. If I hit Restart I hear the chimes, but then the sequence keeps going round in a loop, never starting and I can't see anything on the screen as I have a newer graphics card that doesn't show the whole Apple start-up sequence. Replacing the main drive with another that has a clean install works so the issue is definitely with what's on the system drive rather than the hardware. Any help would be more than appreciated.
