Any idea ?

- v2.106 is ok.
This just worked for me! Delete the app and two container folders and download a fresh copy.
- Uninstall the To Do Mac app
- Open Finder and press CMD+Shift+G
- Enter “~/Library/Group Containers” and delete “UBF8T346G9.com.microsoft.to-do-mac” folder
- Press CMD+Shift+G
- Enter “~/Library/Containers” and delete “Microsoft To Do” folder
- Restart your device, download the app from the App Store and check.
This worked for me! Thank you so much!
Solution does not work for my MacOS 10.15.7 Catalina... nothing does
Have just gotten used to using Safari browser (but that is also now out of support).
Have to buy new Mac as my MBP (perfectly working) is now an albatross as no way to upgrade the OS on old machine.
If I want the To Do app buy new laptop...

This worked for me.
I can't even begin to describe to you how frustrating this has been trying to get this app to work on my MacBook Air. Works great on my iPhone, never worked on my MacBook.
I was forced to switch from Todoist to To Do at work and I wanted to use the same app for work and personal. Not being able to use it on my MacBook used to really piss me off.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I have the same problem. I am using 10.15.7.
I have tried all the suggested advice with no luck.
The only temporary fix I have is to delete To Do and to use Time Machine to restore the previous working version (Version 2.110). The update that failed was on 2023-12-27 (which I think is the latest one). So a version prior to that date should work.
Just tried latest update (2024-02-06) - no joy.
Had to revert to the early December version. (Again!)
I did the same. No solution at the moment
- same problem, Reinstall not helpfull

Alurb52gmailcom I have the same problem. Since 04Jan24 ToDo app crashes on my MacBook Pro (early 2013; ver 10.15.7). No change in the Mac OSX.
Found similar problem for Mac in Msoft community site (June 2023 user SLS212)
Microsoft TO DO keeps crashing when opened
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/microsoft-to-do-keeps-crashing-when-opened/e2a4bba5-5d01-4b33-bf00-138d620ba87b?correlationid=4c3d3a4f-3760-4927-8c69-e66bcf24fc99&from=ContactUsWebBCQR
I tried all the suggestions listed (each time deleting the todo app and restarting incl. shutdown):
1. deleted cache
2. deleted group container
3. deleted todo.mac container
Same result: Each time crashes. Still crashing today.
Today got hold of msoft agent (waited all day yesterday no response). Agent says To Do has NO EXPERT SUPPORT so Msoft releases and app without any link to the developers. Nice one!
The only thing I see has changed (for me) is the new feature 'category sort' released this week. Sort for open tasks (say in My Day) includes categories now.
As To Do is able to link to Outlook (and Planner), this features shares categories which are set in Outlook with the To Do and Planner apps. Unfortunately my Mac 10.15.7 DOES NOT allow ToDo to connect to my Outlook (or Planner) so integrations between apps not supported. I cannot use Planner at all, and my Outlook does not link its Tasks to the To Do app (although it is designed to do so).
I suspect this may be my issue.
I saw somewhere else that someone had identified conflicts with Outlook and To Do categories. They deleted the tasks assigned to categories in Outlook where the associated category had been deleted (I suspect that user may have later version of Mac which DOES connect to Outlook).
Meanwhile all I can do is login to the web version on my Mac and workaround the issue until Msoft decides to solve the issue. I expect this may never happen for 10.15 users as this is the oldest version included with the app setup.
Good Luck!
