I'm not too sure that I properly understand this.
Would doxygen help identify issues with the code for the AppleMac?

Not directly. Doxygen is able to create documentation from code. It can be used by developers to understand what the code does or is intended to do.
It is easy to spot when some end result is not as expected. You have done that already.
But to understand where the deviation from the intended flow occurs, you would not only have to understand what the code is doing, but also what it is intended to do and spot the difference. The start of all evil can be quite far from where it is spotted.
So as doxygen helps understanding the intent, it also helps on troubleshooting.
