H&R Block for M2 Mac?

[kakapo]

Has anyone successfully used H&R Block tax prep software on a M2 Mac? I used it for several years on my Intel-based Mac, but on my new M2 MBA, the H&R Block software is crashing almost every time I click "Next".

Thanks for any info!

P.S. On this particular thread, I'm not interested in hearing about alternatives to doing my taxes using H&R Block software.

Try running the program using Rosetta, the Intel code emulation environment.

How to force a native M1 Mac app to run as an Intel app instead

If you're using an Apple silicon Mac, there may be a time when you have a Universal app and you want to run it on Rosetta2 and not natively.

Thank you for the suggestion!

Unfortunately, it looks like that option is no longer available. Either due to updates in macOS or the specific app.

It's an Intel app, so it won't have that option. Only universal apps, containing code for both Intel and Apple Silicon, have that.

Have you asked H&R Block customer support about this?
