When you uninstall simply removing the application will not do it. There are numerous other support files that must be removed. Here is the procedure.
Corruption could have occurred in the Application or in an associated preference or support file.
The best remedy is to totally uninstall TurboTax and all associate files and then re-install. That will not delete or change any .tax2020 data file that had already been created with the tax data.
To uninstall the application and all associated files need to be deleted and then the application reinstalled. If there was a state then the state must also be reinstalled.
To remove TurboTax from your computer, you'll need administrative rights.
Here is a FAQ for how to uninstall Mac
https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1901210-remove-uninstall-turbotax-for-mac
On Apple's forum, I found a fix that works on our M1 MacBookPro.
Then delete this folder:
~Library/Caches/KSCrash/TurboTax
Hope this works for you. Turbo's own techs don't know about this. In fact, they didn't know there are M1 MacBooks AND they said to delete you need only drag the app to the trash because there are NO other folders or files! Weak support.
We wanted to make sure you had this Help Article's information here to uninstall and reinstall for Mac. Also, if that doesn't assist you, you can always reach out directly to us following the steps here.
Thank you so much. This worked for me.
exactly my problem too
@Zachbrell45 Your solicitation has been reported to the moderators.
I am devastated! Bummer on the part of TT for disenfranchising us Apple customers. I too have done my taxes on TT for 20. years or more. Apple and TT should work together on this.
I did use TT on my macbookpro laptop with Apple M1 chip or 2020 and 2021 without any problem. And all the other aspects are up. to snuff. Ack! I will try again.
Please advise when the issues of opening TT on Mac will be resolved. I need to file my tax return and do not want to start all over again.
thanks
Turbo Tax on Mac should currently open. Are you still having trouble opening the software? @lifrey
No still crashes after screen saying TT is up to date.
I got my taxes done by ignoring the error message. I have checked send error to TT automatically. I don’t think it does. I did not check send error report because I think in the prior 2 years when I did that it would not open at all afterwards so I ignore it.
I’m sure the bug is still there.
