Maybe you have a M18/M2. I have one with Intel chip.
just found this.
Tails does not start at all on Mac models that use the Apple M1 chip and on many other Mac models.
Apple does not prioritize collaborating with Free Software projects. Their newest hardware is usually very hard for Free Software developers to get working with Linux, and thus Tails. PC hardware tends to be more open and work better with Linux.
My solution is I keep using my old mac with tails, but then I'm curious what's the problem for yours.

This is so bad by the way. I bought the new M2 chip Macbook air and I did not know that with these new chips I can not use Tails. It was a very sad moment to me. Unfortunately I sold my old macbook which had an intel chip and tails worked very well. I am not sure what other options left for me because I do not want to buy another computer. Maybe next time I will buy a windows computer but it will be many years later after this got too old 😂

Yeah, probably I would get an older mac or a thinkpad if I knew this before..😏
Yes, I found this too. My MacBook is an older Mac with an Intel chip.
