So, to make it work - for anyone that might be having the same issue - Just open any invitation to a call/ meeting or any notification about being added to a new Team in your emails, and it should open the MS Teams app with "Sign In" window and then it should be working. This helped me, so I hope it can help also anyone that might be having the same problems. 🙂

Hi, thanks for sharing those links. On one of them I found that people are having the same problem, but there was no answer or reply with tips/ instructions on how to fix it.
So I found out that people have the same problem, but I havent found any solution to it.
Anyhow, thank you for your input. I really appreciate it.

Hmm...sorry about that, I should have read through every entry. You might want to just go to answers.microsoft.com tech support site for personalized service. When you give you a response, it would be great if you could post it here.

Just last week - for no apparent reason - it stopped working with exactly the same symptoms as above: it gets stuck loading Microsoft Teams. I have just uninstalled and reinstalled the application and it still has the same problem.
If Microsoft wishes to remain in the game I strongly suggest you find a solution to this problem, as Mac users will increase pressure on the industry to use other platforms to meet if this persists.- Nadeen_SOct 21, 2021Copper Contributor
amandasheedy I have the exact same issue - been using it for >1 year and stuck loading. I have tried every solution out there to no avail.
