This is an old thread from around 3 years ago that transferred into this new forum. Unfortunately, all those old threads were given an early June 2019 date, which is confusing to users.
There is no longer a "My Account" menu in Online TurboTax. And when there was, it was only for Online TurboTax, not the desktop software. The website was redesigned a couple years ago.
"the app version i'm working on with my computer"
What does that mean? Are you referring to installed desktop software (CD/download) as opposed to the Online website version? Any references to "My Account" were for the old Online website.
If you are using Online TurboTax, see the answer I left you in your other thread on how to end a session:
If you are using desktop TurboTax (CD/download), what product are you using, and is it for MAC or PC?
I am using the downloaded version for PCs. Version 2018 Home and Business. Paid $119.
Then go up to File-Save. Or it should ask you to save when you exit or start another new return. Your data is saved as a file ending in .tax2018. And be sure to save frequently, even when working on your return.
I have down loaded Turbotax deluxe 2020 on my Mac Airbook
laptop. I do not know how to save unfinished federal tax return
on my fish drive
If you need to save a copy of your unfinished return, please follow the instructions here.

I don't use a Mac, so I'm going to ask someone who may be familiar with this issue to help you on Monday.
In the meantime, if you're trying to save it to a flash drive or external drive, try saving it to the main drive instead.
@macuser_22 When you are next around, are you please able to assist this user who has a "permissions issue" with saving his file? Thanks!
Saving to removable media is not recommended because of permissions problems. Save to your Desktop.
thank you. I was saving them on a thumb drive. have moved them to my desktop and will see how that works. much appreciated. bil
it is working fine. thanks again. Bil C.
