Why does not my MacBook air boot normally?
Hi All,
I have a MacBook air purchased in August 2014 that I've never had the slightest problem with. 5 months back It was updated to “Big Sur” and it there was no issue, it was working fine. After shutting down normally that day, I tried to start it next day, it showed a folder with a question mark and from then this is what happens:
1. I press start
2. After a few seconds I hear the chime, I can see that there is light in the screen and apple logo lighten up.
3. Nothing else happens and it shuts down after few seconds-- screen remains black and the keyboard is dark
Before it shut down it got updated to “Big Sur”
I followed all the steps outlined on apple communities: My MacBook Air it did not start, including trying to reset the SMC and the PRAM, but this did not help. I tried to get it into recovery mode but nothing happened no it is booting is safe mode. I tried to get it into recovery from Internet but it does not show any thing on screen.
Yes, I have checked the brightness of the screen, it has a good connection to power, the power cord light shows amber.

Have you ever had the systems battery replaced?
What is the color of the MagSafe connector? Amber or Green or not lit at all.
