Microsoft To Do not working on Mac OS
I am very sorry about that, and we will release a new update for To Do in two weeks. That update should have this problem fixed.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Best,
---------------------
I have tried that a couple times already. I tried it once more today and it worked as long as I started up ToDo without being connected to the internet.
When I try to start ToDo while on the internet, the program crashes on startup. When I have ToDo on and it’s working well then I connect to the internet, ToDo crashes and I can’t open it again until I get off the internet.

I am very sorry that you ran into this problem, and I'd love to help!
In this case, could you please uninstall To Do totally through AppCleaner App which could be downloaded here [https://freemacsoft.net/appcleaner/] and follow the steps below to uninstall?
- Open the AppCleaner Windows
- Drag To Do into it, and select all related files to delete
After that, please reinstall To Do again to try.
If this still persists, please let us know and this probelm will be escalated to our engineers!
Best,
GPinBK so you're saying the only way to fix this is to delete the entire program? is there a back up somewhere? I'm worried that If I delete and reinstall I'll lose all my hard work. I can get it to log in on my iphone but the program is missing all my lists. So what to do????
- My problem is a bit different. TODO opens but when I click in the box to enter a task nothing happens. I can not type anything inside the box. I've uninstalled completely using the App Remover mentioned above and then downloaded again. It's always the same. I can enter info online and it will sink with the desktop app....but I just can't click in the box with the plus sign to enter a new task....can someone please help me? thanks.
- I have the same problem and now it's year 2023 - 2 years since this post.
Have you managed to find the root cause / solution? Thanks!
- The update doesn't make a difference in October 2020. Going offline, as suggested by GPinBK, and logging out and then back in while online works!
Microsoft To Do crashes multiple times each day. I've uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times and this does not help. Besides my frustration at this product being so inferior to Wunderlist, the fact that I cannot reliably use the app is incredibly frustrating. Does anyone have an updated solution? GPinBK
I stumbled on a fix that worked for me:
1) Make sure the computer is off-line
2) Open Microsoft ToDo
3) Go to “Account” and sign out
4) Turn on internet connection to computer
5) Sign in to account again - it seems to be working fine now
