    Hello,

    Greetings for the day! I’m an, Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for posting the query here at this forum.

    Could you please try to remove the saved credentials in the MAC machines?

    1. Remove saved credentials:
    2. In the Spotlight search type Keychain
    3. Select Keychain Access
    4. Alternatively, if you are unable to see the Keychain under the spotlight, select the Utility folder and open Keychain Access
    5. Look for Exchange
    6. Then, locate "SharePoint" Cached Credential entry and delete it
    7. Restart the device
    8. Clear the App Cache Clearing all those temporary files stored in the app cache folder may help you solve this issue. The cache might be interfering with your current Office session.
    9. Quit Microsoft apps - Office / Teams.
    10. Navigate to “~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft
    11. Select the Office app that’s causing the alerts.
    12. Delete all the files from that folder and restart the app.
    13. Restart your device

    It wants the password to your mac, not to any of your microsoft accounts. That's why I was hesitant to grant it. Since I'm not using Sharepoint, I was not inclined to give some random popup the password to my mac. But it's the only way you can make it shut up.

    I have a mac for a reason, yet the microsoft virus found it's way to there too.
