If you used the software CD / Download last year and you are trying to use Online this year your your CD / Download files on your desktop will not transfer to the Online product because Turbo Tax CD / Download is only transferable to the desktop version (CD / Download). Online can be saved as a .taxfile2016 on your desktop, however, to be transferred to CD / Download.
