using TT home&business 2018 on mac mojave 10.14.3
I get to the page where I click "no" on incentive stock options and TT crashes. Brings up a small window that an error report will automatically be sent and I can click "retry", but when I do the same crash happens again.
I suggest calling customer support tomorrow and ask for Mac tech support. If you can get the crash log from Utilities -> Console it will probably help.
Here is a TurboTax FAQ for contacting customer support.

Mine does the exact same thing. Spent 1 1/2 hours on the phone, downloaded program again, several times. Still no go. I was told the tier 59 or whatever person would call me back. Never happened. On hold again.
I was able to duplicate the problem in Mac OSX 10.12.6 so it appears to be in a Mac releases.
I have reported it to the Moderators with a crash log.
AFAIK I can only duplicate it if I am using the "Guide Me" interview or "Visit All".
i have the same exact problem when answering “ no to incentive tax options. it crashes. asks me to install “ X Code” and begin debugging.
After spending over 10 hours perping my tax, I was doing the undo by cmd-Z and it crashed. Moreover, **all** my information are now erased and I have to start out of scratch!!!
same issue - Veronica a supervisor told me that this is apples fault and I should call them, then she sent me outdated info about TTX 2014
BTW - there should be no reason why a customer who bought commercial off the shelf software should need to go out and buy a developers kit to run consumer software. clearly their testing and quality assurance process needs lots of work
It's a "debug" trap because of a compiler error. The X Code is a developer tool, not for you to use. It is a TurboTax bug. Use the "I'll choose what I will work on"and not the "Guide Me".
It has been reported to TurboTax.
Veronica B - supervisor told me that TTAX will NOT FIX THIS that TTAX is not supported on the MAC
Of course Mac is supported. There are 4 different Mac products.
Mac version of Home & Business crashes and asks to install the X code. What's the fix?
There is none as of now. TurboTax has not yet acknowledged the problem.
AFAIK it only occurs when answering no to a question that does not apply to you so skip the Guide Me interview and just select the categories that you need.
I have the exact same problem of crashing when I get to the question about ISO. I hope they fix this soon.
Same problem. Crashes when I click 'no' on the ISO page. MacOS 10.13.6. Started a new tax return from scratch and the problem happened again. Good to know it's not just me. I hope TurboTax puts out a fix for this soon.
Turbo tax I have the same problem on my Mac, where is the fix ?
Same problem here. If I wanted to select the categories I would have. This is ridiculous. I had to buy a new MacBook as TT won’t run on older macs. I tried to do the online version but it won’t import past returns done on a computer
I called TT Customer service. Very helpful, download a "fixed version" of TT. It works now.

Just downloaded the "update" just released--TT still crashes at the ISO question.
TurboTax Mac Crash during Incentive Stock Options
Workaround - do not use the "Guide Me" option. Use the "I'll choose what I will work on" instead.
