Troubleshooting

How to fix Microsoft Teams not working

Microsoft Teams is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach microsoft.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Restart Teams

    Quit the app fully, then open it again. On Windows, right-click its icon in the notification area and choose Quit; on Mac, right-click the dock icon and choose Quit. A stuck call or a frozen window often clears after a fresh start.

  2. Sign out of Teams

    Choose Sign out from your profile picture, then sign in again with the same work or school account. This refreshes the token that chat and calls rely on. Use it when the app says you are not signed in or keeps returning you to the sign-in screen.

  3. Test Teams audio and camera

    Open Settings and more (...) > Settings > Devices. Pick your audio devices and camera, then select Make a test call. The test call records a short message and plays it back so you can hear whether your audio works; if the camera does not appear, check that no other app is using it and that Windows or browser privacy settings allow camera access.

  4. Clear Teams cache and reinstall

    Quit the app, then open Settings and more (...) > Settings > Files and links > Clear cache. Reopen the app and sign in. If the problem stays, uninstall it and install it again after a restart.

While Microsoft Teams is down: what to use instead

  • Web version in a browser If the desktop app hangs on the loading screen or keeps asking you to sign in, open the web version in Edge or Chrome, since a corrupted cache or broken local install won't follow you to the browser.
  • Outlook email Mail often keeps flowing when chat and channels stall, so send the urgent message by email and copy everyone from the thread.
  • Meeting dial-in number When the invite lists a phone number and conference ID, you can call in from any phone and still hear the meeting while the app won't connect.
  • Zoom or Google Meet For a call that can't wait, start one there and send the link by email or text.
Your device

Fix Microsoft Teams on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Microsoft Teams on Windows

Fix
To fix Microsoft Teams on Windows, close the app completely from the system tray and clear the Teams cache folder in your AppData directory. Alternatively, try using the web version in a browser to bypass desktop app issues.
Check
Check if Microsoft Teams is down by visiting the Microsoft 365 Service Health page or checking the official Microsoft 365 Status Twitter account. If you cannot log in via the web client either, the service is likely down.
Command Prompt
ping microsoft.comTest whether Microsoft Teams's servers reply
nslookup microsoft.comCheck that Microsoft Teams's DNS resolves
tracert microsoft.comTrace where the connection drops
ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

Microsoft Teams on Mac

Fix
Fix Microsoft Teams on macOS by force quitting the app and clearing its cache files located in the Library folder. You can also check for and install any pending updates using the Microsoft AutoUpdate tool.
Check
To tell if Microsoft Teams is down on Mac, try signing into the web app using Safari or Chrome. If the web portal fails to load alongside the desktop client, Microsoft is likely experiencing a wider outage.
Terminal
ping -c 4 microsoft.comTest whether Microsoft Teams's servers reply
nslookup microsoft.comCheck that Microsoft Teams's DNS resolves
traceroute microsoft.comTrace where the connection drops
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

Microsoft Teams on Android

Fix
Fix Microsoft Teams on Android by clearing the app's cache and storage data in your device's Settings, then restarting the app. If the issue persists, check the Google Play Store for updates or reinstall the app.
Check
To check if Microsoft Teams is down on Android, switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data to see if it is a local network issue. You can also check if other Microsoft 365 apps are failing to connect on your device.

Microsoft Teams on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Fix Microsoft Teams on iOS by offloading and reinstalling the app from the App Store, or restarting your iPhone or iPad. Ensuring your iOS software is up to date can also resolve connection and launch failures.
Check
Determine if Microsoft Teams is down on iOS by attempting to access the service through a mobile web browser. If the app refuses to connect while your internet works fine on other apps, Teams is likely facing an outage.

Same time

Problems at the same time as Microsoft Teams

Since 5 October, all 14 of Microsoft Teams's spikes in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

About

What happens when Microsoft Teams goes down

Microsoft Teams is chat, meetings, calls and file sharing that offices, schools and remote crews use to run the workday when email is too slow. You lose meetings first.

Chat goes first for many outages because messages stick on sending while older threads still load. You can join a meeting but get no audio or black video. You wait in lobbies. Large failures hit the desktop and web apps together, though calls and presence can fail in a region while chat works for crews in another.

Our check
Answered in 78 ms

Checked from our server in Frankfurt, Germany, 3 days ago, for www.microsoft.com. A service behind a CDN answers from many data centres, usually the one nearest to you, so these addresses are where its traffic enters, not where its own servers stand. Visitors elsewhere may see different addresses.

Checked from 11 places around the world

None of check-host.net's 11 servers got an answer from www.microsoft.com (connection timed out), but our own check from Frankfurt did, 3 days ago. That usually means the site drops automated checks from those servers, not that it is down.

Questions

Microsoft Teams FAQ

Is Microsoft Teams down right now?
The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for Microsoft Teams are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. This page does not monitor the service itself. Check the official status page listed above for service-side issues, then test your side by opening the web app in a different browser or on another network. When only your desktop app fails but the web version works, clear the app cache or reinstall the client, because the problem is on your device.

Why do my Direct Messages fail to send in Teams while channel posts still go through?
A stuck chat often points to a sync problem on your device, so sign out of the desktop app and try the web version. If the message sends there, clear the app cache on the desktop client. If the other person also cannot post in that chat, the issue may sit with their account or your shared tenant.

Why does Teams say my account does not have permission to open a tab or file?
You may be signed in with a personal Microsoft account when the tab or file requires a work or school account. Check your profile picture in the top corner, then sign back in with the correct account. If your organization uses guest access, ask the file owner to confirm your invite; the help centre can walk through account switching.

Why does screen sharing freeze or lag in the Teams desktop app but work in the browser?
The desktop app handles screen sharing differently from the browser, so a device or app setting can freeze the preview while audio keeps running. Update the driver and try sharing a single window rather than your full screen. If the browser version works, the installed app or your device is the likely cause.

Why does Teams keep signing me out on my phone or show missed call notifications late?
Battery saving settings on Android and iOS can kill the app in the background, which delays calls and sign-in prompts. Allow background activity for the app and turn off any data saver for it. If only one phone has the problem, compare its app version with a tablet or another phone before you blame the service.

How we track Microsoft Teams

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Microsoft Teams, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Microsoft Teams, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Microsoft Teams's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
