One Drive Stopped Working since April 7th, 2023 and running with MaC OS catalina 10.15.7

I have a MacBook Pro mid 2012( The best machines as compared with the current ones) running with OS Catalina 10.15.7, but a couple a days ago my OneDrive stopped working or syncing, I've done everything, installing previous version and also following the recommended ones in some post with no success in the installation.

Installing previous versions of one drive the results are the same, further uninstalling Office 365 and nothing. So was necessary to install a previous version of office 2016 to get again office package, the new version does not run with Catalina 10.15.7, so, my unique alternative is to work with the app in website with a link in desktop.

I would recommend to MS to avoid or prevent with visible notice that the one drive with the last update does not run on Catalina 10.15.7 and give the option to users to keep the previous version.

Until now, I have no fixed the problem with One drive. Suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

Juan

    +1 Signal boost to this hack-y fix

    From other comments in this thread it seems like microsoft may be dropping support for Mac versions pre OS-11

    Also this comment from Errol in this thread was helpful:

    "Hello,

    Unfortunately, that fix didn't work for me, but what DID work was going to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/onedrive-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0 and selecting the version 23.002.0102.0004 under DEFERRED RING. Didn't need to quit the Standalone Updater on Activity Window.

    It may not work for everyone, but I figured I would share in case it does.

    Good luck, everyone. Microsoft is so fickle with Mac users..."

    Echoing their sentiments - good luck! What a pain in the hole

    I've tried all of this. None if it works. It appears that OneDrive has suddenly stopped being compatible with MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.7.

    The latest "insider preview" versions of OneDrive for MacOS (starting with 23.081 and later, including 23.086) reportedly work with MacOS Catalina (10.15.x).

    23.081 is available here: : https://oneclient.sfx.ms/Mac/Installers/23.081.0416.0001/universal/OneDrive.pkg 

    23.086 is available here:

    https://oneclient.sfx.ms/Mac/Installers/23.086.0423.0001/universal/OneDrive.pkg

    Alternate download location here: All OneDrive Versions – Hans Brender's Blog

    If you implemented fixes that preserved the previously working OneDrive versions (e.g. 23.002 or 23.054) by preventing MS from updating those to non-working versions, you may need to reverse those fixes first before installing the latest insider preview versions that now work with Catalina.

    I can confirm that 23.081 works with MacOS Catalina (10.15.x).

    For more details, you can also visit and review this thread: My Fix for OneDrive on MacOs Catalina (10.15.x) - Microsoft Community

    Good luck!
