Teams Flickering when joining from Outlook calendar

Anonymous

macOS

Teams version 1.6.00.19303-E (updated 7/21/2023)

Outlook version 16.75.1 (23071400)

Many users experiencing an issue where Teams will flicker non-stop when joining a meeting from the Outlook calendar if Teams is not already open.

Will have to force quit Teams application, then reopen Teams separately.

Clearing MS Teams cache doesn't fix the issue.

Only work around is to either join directly from Teams calendar, or open Teams first, then join from Outlook calendar.

Uninstall > restart the machine > install again (search Teams for mac)

Thanks for the tip for the workaround for the flickering problem by first opening Teams and THEN click the Outlook reminder "Join" meeting button .

Hopefully this bug is fixed soon by the engineers.

I was able to fix it from my end by doing a clean-ish uninstall, reboot, then reinstall. So far, no flicking when joining a meeting when Teams is not running.

Deleted the following files and folders in addition to the Teams app:
- ~/Library/Caches/ — com.microsoft.teams
- ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams
Restarted and reinstalled. I'm on MacOS 13.5.2
