I am attempting to install TurboTax 2023 on my Mac running macOS 14.4, but unfortunately, the application keeps crashing. I've tested the installation on another Mac with the same configuration, yet the problem persists. If anyone has successfully resolved this issue or found a workaround, I would greatly appreciate your guidance and advice. Thank you!

The operating system requirements for Mac computers for 2023 are:

 

macOS Monterey 12 or later (macOS Big Sur 11 not supported)

 

  • Specific macOS: macOS Monterey 12, macOS Ventura 13, macOS Sonoma 14

Please see this webpage for more information.

 

See also this help article for minimum system requirements.

 

This help article addresses the situation where TurboTax for Mac won't open after it was installed.

 

If you have tried exiting the program and reentering, and rebooting the computer, I recommend that you contact TurboTax Support for assistance. They may be able to set up a Glance screenshare session if needed.

I filed my Federal tax form via Turbo Tax in early February and the return was deposited into my account within two weeks. I used the desk top version on my Mac. Now I'm trying to work on another return for someone else and Turbo Tax keeps bombing. I've done more than one return before. Is there a limit of only one return now?

I am dissatisfied with TurboTax's support. They redirected me to the Apple forum for a solution, even though the issue lies with their software.
Initially, it functioned properly, but after a mandatory update, it ceased to work again. Now, I'm compelled to file tax from a professional, which I find quite unsettling.
